 Secure, Compliant, and Built to Perform 

For locksmiths, security dealers, and system integrators, exit devices are no longer just mechanical hardware. Today’s openings are expected to support access control, life safety, monitoring, scheduled operation, and long-term reliability — often on high-traffic doors that never stop cycling. That demand creates a common challenge: balancing clean architectural design with dependable electrified performance.

The Spectra™ S6000 series architectural exit devices from Security Door Controls are designed to address those real-world installation and operational concerns with integrated electrification options, durable construction, and flexible monitoring features.

Did You Know?

 SDC_Auto_Factory_Exit_DeviceAWhile SDC is well known for electrification, controllers and retrofit kits with decades of expertise in complete opening solutions. Many in the industry do not know that we’re also a primary manufacturer of complete access and egress hardware, including exit devices. The S6000 series was developed as an integrated electrified architectural exit device platform, helping simplify deployment while maintaining code compliance and professional appearance.

Designed for Access Control Integration 

SDC’s S6000 series electrified architectural rim, surface vertical rod, and mortise exit devices offer several electrified options to complement virtually any access control and aesthetic requirement. 
 

Features include:

  • Electrified architectural design
  • Panic and fire rated devices
  • Durable stainless steel construction
  • Corrosion resistant
  • High traffic use
  • Optional features:
    • Request-to-exit (REX)
    • Latch status (LS)

Premium Performance for Modern Access Control

For facilities running scheduled unlocks or automatic door control, electric latch retraction can dramatically improve operational efficiency. Instead of manually dogging doors open during business hours, the system can automate secure access while maintaining safe emergency egress functionality.

Electrification Options:

  • Motorized ELR and dogging
  • Electric dogging
  • Alarmed exit, battery or hardwired

Quiet Operation. Powerful Performance. 

Another standout feature is the quiet push pad operation. Traditional electrified exit devices can create excessive operational noise, especially in high-traffic environments. The S6000 series was designed with smoother, quieter performance that enhances the end-user experience while reducing wear on components.

For integrators and security professionals seeking a premium architectural exit device that supports advanced access control environments, the S6000 series offers a future-ready solution built for performance, compliance, and reliability.
