Additional Information
The 3579HS series is designed to maintain security on the external side at all times, while providing internal emergency egress in fire alarm or break glass events. In such cases, power is cut, unlocking the internal side only. An electric strike must always be used in conjunction with this lock, as the external side cannot be electrically released.
