Ensure the safety of your building occupants with fire exit doors that comply with code regulations. Discover how solenoid controlled mortise locksets can enhance security while meeting the necessary requirements.
Understanding the requirements for fire exit doors is crucial for maintaining a compliant and secure environment. One of the key aspects of fire door code compliance is the installation of proper hardware, including solenoid controlled mortise locksets. These locksets are specifically designed for fire exit doors, offering enhanced security while still meeting the necessary regulations. Installing solenoid controlled mortise locksets and maintaining fire exit doors in good working condition are essential steps towards achieving code compliance and creating a secure environment.
Solenoid controlled mortise locksets are a popular choice for fire exit doors due to their enhanced security features and ability to meet code regulations. These locksets use an electric current to control the locking and unlocking mechanism of the door and provide controlled access to the building. This enhances the security of the building while still allowing for quick and easy egress in case of an emergency.
Moreover, solenoid controlled mortise locksets are designed to meet the necessary fire door code requirements which ensures that the locksets contribute to the overall fire safety of the building. These locksets provide a reliable and efficient solution for controlling access and maintaining the safety of your building occupants.

Before SDC invented the 90° electric lock in the 1970’s, installation of electric bolt locks was costly, often requiring the cutting of studs and considerable reconstruction of door frames. Our Spacesaver® bolt lock design is a fundamental access control innovation now used worldwide. They install in any standard frame and most door stiles with a simple mortise cutout. The rotating bolt design makes tampering or cutting very difficult. An automatic relock ball switch keeps the bolt retracted when the door is open.
Additionally, they are field adjustable for wide door gaps and bidirectional for use on swinging or sliding doors. The Spacesaver® FS23M series is still the only dual-failsafe electric bolt lock in the industry.
Today, our comprehensive line of bolt locks use the same practical, yet pioneering approach to meeting access control requirements for safety, security and code compliance.
