No Touch Exit Button with Backplate, Rectangular - Hands-Free Infrared Door Release Switch with LED Indicator, Surface Mount, Brushed Stainless Steel

The No Touch Exit Button with Backplate, Rectangular - Hands-Free Infrared Door Release Switch with LED Indicator, Surface Mount, Brushed Stainless Steel (SKU: Exit-Button-Touchless-with-Backplate-Rectangular) releases a door when a hand moves in front of it. Nothing is pressed.

What the specs mean at the door

• Infrared sensor: it detects hand movement in front of the panel. Users never touch the plate, which keeps shared doors more hygienic.
• LED backlight: LED means light-emitting diode. The light shows the sensor's operating status and makes the button easy to find in low light.
• Brushed stainless steel faceplate: a rectangular metal plate that stands up to daily use.
• Surface mount: the unit sits on the wall face, on a wall box or an access control mounting point.

What else you need

This button sends a release signal. It does not lock or unlock anything itself. You need an electric strike, magnetic lock or door controller to receive that signal, and the button can be connected to any of these.

Where it suits

Touchless release suits busy doors in offices, hospitals, retail stores and public buildings. With no switch to press, there is also less wear on mechanical components. It is designed for access control systems in both commercial and residential settings.
