Escape Door System - Run out Theft
The ASSA ABLOY Escape Door Systems video demonstrates how the EDS solution can help prevent and deter theft in retail. The video highlights how ABLOY’s access control and door monitoring technology can detect suspicious activity, trigger alarms, and provide staff with real-time awareness of potential security breaches. By combining controlled access and immediate alerts, the solution helps businesses reduce losses, improve site security, and create a safer environment for employees and customers.
An Escape Door System (EDS) is designed specifically to ensure people can escape safely through electrically controlled Escape doors, and maintains secure locking in the event of an emergency.
The importance of emergency escape routes is often underestimated because emergencies and tragedies are only highlighted when they do not work. Failing to provide a compliant escape can lead to the loss of life, substantial fines and even custodial sentences.
To date, it had not been possible to provide a compliant solution for an escape door when Read-In and Read-Out access control was specified, but with the EDS from Abloy complying to BS EN 13637, there is now a solution.
