Product Description
The ACM-K15A is a stainless steel, IP67-rated exit push button for releasing electric or magnetic locks in access control systems. Pressing it sends a momentary contact signal to the connected access controller, which then releases the door.
Where it fits
This is an exit-side accessory, not a standalone system — it needs pairing with an access controller and an electric strike or maglock. Typical jobs include:
- Fire exits and staff exits in retail units and offices, where a clearly marked release is required
- External gates, warehouse doors and parking barrier points exposed to rain or washdown
- Residential block communal doors and industrial facility entrances needing a durable, vandal-resistant fitting
Why the build matters on site
- IP67 rating: withstands moisture and dust ingress, so it can go on an external wall or gate rather than being limited to a sheltered porch
- Stainless steel housing: resists the knocks and repeated use typical of public or commercial doorways, and stands up to outdoor weathering better than plastic alternatives
- Momentary contact switch: gives a clean, single-press signal to the controller rather than a maintained closure
- Surface mount: fixes to a wall, door frame or standard mounting box near the exit point, without cutting into the door itself
- Marked "EXIT" label: helps building users find the release quickly, which matters for both routine use and emergency egress
Specify it alongside the site's existing controller and lock hardware to confirm electrical compatibility before ordering.
