The CrossingGard Emergency Response Grille is designed to help address both the security and safety issues of public areas. The CrossingGard provides the security of a locked, rolling grille but immediately responds in an emergency situation to open automatically and allow safe escape. Available only from Cornell, the CrossingGard is always on duty to provide separation control, yet still allows for alternate means of escape should a fire, public disturbance or other emergency situation arise.
- ICC-ES evaluated for access controlled egress per the International Building Code®
- Fail-safe emergency response capability. When an alarm is activated, power is lost, or if the IBC emergency exit push-button station is activated, the CrossingGard immediately clears the path by returning the grille to its full open position
- No manual locking or unlocking required. AutoLock automatically secures a closed grille by engaging upon attempt of forced opening. AutoLock remains disengaged during normal and emergency operation
- No resetting is necessary to resume normal operation. Following an emergency situation, the CrossingGard can be repositioned to the closed position by activating "close" at the motor control station
- Early Installation Option: Early/easy self-supporting installation system allows grilles to be mounted on factory supplied tubular members before walls are built and before there is a finished opening
Sizes: Openings from 5' to 24' wide and 4' to 20' high.
Materials: Open curtain, which allows air circulation, is formed with a series of horizontal rods 5/16" in diameter. Vertical separation between rods of 2". Rods are available in aluminum – mill, clear or color anodized finish, 300 series stainless steel or solid galvanized steel.
Operation: Cornell FS M100 series motor operator supplied as standard to provide fail-safe automatic emergency opening capabilities. Mechanism can be recessed above the ceiling with no affect on operation.
AutoLock Mechanism: Concealed self-locking assemblies prevent forced opening of a closed grille. Lock mechanism will not interfere with normal electric, fail-safe or emergency response self-opening feature
