The panic exit devices are door fittings intended to ensure the people´s safety, and for this reason it is mandatory that these solutions are CE certified complying with the requirements defined by the European Standard EN1125.
In turn, this also means that any combination of panic exit device and lock different from the certified one, do not ensure the desired performance and result. This is important to keep in mind for the usual work of a panic exit device, but it is much more important to take it into account when the panic exit device is required to fulfill its main function, which is none other than an easy and safe evacuation. Therefore, any combination of panic exit device and lock different from those certified does not guarantee the safety of people.
