GfS emergency exit solutions
Designed for reliable operation, straightforward installation, and a range of building environments, our solutions help combine safe evacuation with better control of your exits.
Monitored emergency exits. Safe escape routes. Secure solutions.
The challenge with emergency exits is clear: they must always be usable when you need them most. At the same time, they should not be misused, unnoticed in everyday operation. GfS develops solutions for exactly this balance, with easy installation, robust engineering, simple operation, and reliable support for different building types.
To protect your assets. To secure emergency exits just the way you want.
Emergency exit protection for different building needs
Do you need to protect emergency exits without compromising safe evacuation?
Are you looking for a practical solution for existing doors, public buildings, retail spaces, healthcare environments, or other high-traffic areas? A retrofit solution, implementable without effort into existing structures?
With decades of experience in escape route technology, GfS provides robust and easy-to-use solutions that help building operators manage emergency exits safely and efficiently.
The challenge: safe evacuation and controlled use
Emergency exits must open when they need to. At the same time, building managers need to reduce everyday misuse like unauthorized opening and any unnoticed use of escape route doors.
GfS solutions are built for this balance: supporting safe evacuation while helping facilities managers keep emergency exits under control.
When someone opens an escape door protected with a GfS solution, a loud acoustic alarm is triggered. If you ever need to exit without an alert, just use your key.
Installing a GfS product sends a clear signal to anyone intending to use the escape door handle: this door is protected.
