CrossingGard® Emergency Response Grille
Emergency Response Security Grilles
CrossingGard® is an Emergency Response Grille designed to help address both security and safety issues in public areas. CrossingGard® provides the security of a locked, rolling security grille — but immediately responds in an emergency situation to fully open automatically and allow safe escape. Our exclusive egress safety grille is always on duty to provide separation control, yet still allows access to an alternate means of escape.
The CrossingGard® is a secure solution combining roll-down gate space separation with emergency egress. When triggered by alarm, power failure, or push-button, the security grille fully opens without electricity. It returns to its secure, closed position with a touch of a button post-event.
The durable open-pattern gates provide security and visibility with minimal maintenance, no manual locking needed. The Link AutoLock secures the grille against forced entry while staying disengaged during normal and emergency operations.
Ideal for corridors, schools, and government facilities, the CrossingGard® ensures both security and quick emergency access.

Sensing Edge
Smoother Installation and easy maintenance: Designed with a flexible black rubber TPE material, our new sensing edge has two fins that conform to variations in the floor on both the interior and exterior of your door or grille. This ensures a secure seal without requiring you to overset the bottom door limit. The new sensing edge is easy to clean and remains free from rust and dirt stains, maintaining a fresh uniform appearance.
Edges are tested and listed to UL 10B as a component of the rolling steel fire door assembly.
Stronger weather protection: Featuring flexible 1" sealing fins, our sensing edges withstand the elements, providing maximum protection
Entrapment Protection Devices
Entrapment protection devices ensure that a motorized door or grille will not close on an object. If an object enters path of closure, the entrapment protection device will stop the door or grille from closing and return it to the fully open position.
