Dormakaba Rci DE8310S8 Delayed Egress Mag Lock

Product Description

The DORMAKABA USA INC. / RCI DE8310S8 is a delayed egress magnetic lock designed for controlled access applications where a timed delay is required before a door can be opened from the egress side. Magnetic locks of this type use electromagnetic force to hold a door in the closed position, releasing only after a programmed delay period has elapsed or upon receiving an authorized signal. The DE8310S8 is intended for installation on doors where local fire, life-safety, and building codes permit delayed egress hardware, including corridors, stairwells, and secured interior entries.

This unit is suited for commercial and institutional facilities such as healthcare, education, retail loss prevention, and government buildings. Licensed security or low-voltage electricians typically install delayed egress magnetic locks as part of an access control system. The DE8310S8 is sold as a single unit and is designed for use where a monitored, code-compliant egress delay is required at a secured door opening.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage electrician or certified access control technician familiar with local building, fire, and life-safety codes. Disconnect and lock out all power to the access control circuit before beginning installation or wiring work. Delayed egress devices must comply with applicable codes such as NFPA 101 and local Authority Having Jurisdiction requirements before the door is placed into service. Do not bypass or defeat the delay timing circuit during testing without confirming compliance with the governing life-safety standard.
