Pullman Catches
For doors that are subject to a high volume of
traffic or to be able to offer a higher level of security, then Exidor
Pullman Catches are the answer. The Pullman Catches provide a smooth and
quiet alternative to the traditional top trip catch and therefore are
recommended for interconnecting doors as well as external doors. The level
of security is increased because the units operate independently and yet
they maintain the emergency facility in that they are retracted in one
action by a Bar, Push Pad or Touchbar when required.
The Pullman catches are housed in an enclosed
keep and are designed so that they can only be attacked by going through
the door, however due to the design, the catch will throw outwards rather
than retract if attacked, thus increasing the security.
The Exidor Pullman Catches can be supplied with
any of the Exidor Panic Bolt range or can be fitted to an existing unit
should it be required to upgrade a unit. Exidor 314 Pullman Catch Kits
are available.
Dogging Device
For use with the standard Exidor Panic Bolt range
a dogging device is available as an accessory (Exidor 299), but is built-in
to the Exidor 400 Series Touchbar range. The dogging device allows the
bolts to be withheld in the retracted position ensuring the automatic
top trip catch or Pullman Catches do not engage when the door is closed.
(Not suitable for fire door application)
Outside Access Device
An Outside Access Device is used to provide a
key holder with access from the outside of a door while maintaining the
emergency exit function from the inside whether the OAD is locked or unlocked.
Adjustable Shoots
To overcome the problem of bolts not fully engaging
in the keeps due to the door or frame moving after a period of time, adjustable
shoots are available on the Exidor Panic Bolts. These adjustable shoots
allow + or - 5mm of adjustment and are particularly suited for soft wood
and UPVC doors and frames.
Anti-Thrust
A device built into a unit to prevent either
a bolt or latch from being forced back when in the closed position, thus
increasing the level of security.
