Sargent and Greenleaf, Inc. (S&G), a division of STANLEY Security, introduces the S&G® Model 2890B Pedestrian Door Lock (PDL) – the first of its kind in the security industry designed to meet U.S. Federal specification FF-L-2890B, September 29-October 1 at the ASIS International 60th Annual Seminary & Exhibits at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, GA.
The S&G Model 2890B PDL represents the latest design advances to produce a single motion egress door lock for the highest level of security, and is the first and only hardware currently designed to FF-L-2890B federal specifications to include a UL 3-Hour Single Door Fire rating. The S&G Model 2890B PDL is intended to meet both the stringent needs of NFPA 101 life safety and high-security requirements for government applications. The lock is also designed for Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF) applications for U.S. military, fusion centres, defence contractors and others.
“The introduction of the S&G Model 2890B PDL is one of those rare firsts in the industry,” said Nate Brown, Marketing Director for Sargent and Greenleaf. “This is a revolutionary solution that offers full integration capabilities for a number of high-security government facilities and applications. The Model 2890B PDL proves S&G’s 150-year reputation for innovative, powerful and protective solutions that meet the most rigorous federal standards.”
The lock is available in a variety of styles, including:
- Type I and Type II: Designed to combine the unparalleled security of an S&G Model 2740B electromechanical combination lock on the outside of a door with a simple, sturdy, ADA-compliant release handle on the inside
- Type III and Type IV: Provide single motion egress while meeting the highest government security standards. A single push of a built-in panic bar releases the entire locking mechanism to allow for fast, intuitive egress, and is ideal for fire doors.
- Type V and Type VI: Incorporate some of the same, heavy-duty components found in the more sophisticated Types I, II, III and IV units to construct a high-security, auto-escape door locking mechanism.
Comprehensive features of the newly released S&G Model 2890B PDL include:
- Ability to integrate the S&G Model 2740B electromechanical combination lock, as well as other combination locks approved to federal specification FF-L-2740B.
- Through-mounting with heavy-duty, adjustable standoffs for a strong, solid mount that cannot cause door collapse
- Fully configurable for left-hand and right-hand metal, wood or composite doors
- Heavy-duty, surface-mounted strike with integral roller for secure, smooth operation
- Pinch-proof strikes available for in-swing, out-swing and double door applications
