Alarm Controls KR-1 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the primary function of the Alarm Controls KR series latching panic station?
The KR series provides emergency egress control with latching activation. Once triggered, the unit remains in alarm state until manually reset with a key. This prevents unauthorized re-entry and maintains security during emergencies.
2) How does the key reset function work on these panic stations?
After activation, the station locks in the triggered position. Only authorized personnel with the reset key can return the unit to normal operation. The key cylinder is typically located on the front face for easy access by security or maintenance staff.
3) What door types and weights are compatible with KR panic stations?
These stations work with standard commercial doors including wood, metal, and glass. Verify door thickness and weight capacity with manufacturer specifications. Most models accommodate doors from 1-3/4" to 2-1/4" thick.
4) What finish options are available for the KR series?
Standard finishes include satin chrome, aluminum, and dark bronze. Some models offer powder-coated options for enhanced durability. Check specific model availability as finishes vary by series configuration.
5) What electrical specifications should I know for installation?
Most KR stations operate on low voltage systems, typically 12V or 24V DC. Contact ratings vary by model but generally handle 5-10 amps resistive load. Always verify electrical requirements match your access control system before installation.
6) Do these panic stations meet fire and building code requirements?
KR series stations are designed for code compliance when properly installed. They meet NFPA 101 requirements for emergency egress. However, local codes vary, so consult your AHJ (Authority Having Jurisdiction) for specific project requirements.
7) What mounting hardware and accessories are included?
Standard packages include mounting screws, strike plates, and basic hardware. Some models require separate electrical boxes or trim plates. Check product specifications for complete component lists and optional accessories.
8) What are the basic installation requirements for KR panic stations?
Install at 34-48 inches above floor level per ADA requirements. Ensure proper door prep and alignment with strike plate. Run low voltage wiring to control panel. Follow manufacturer templates for precise hole locations and spacing.
9) How do I maintain and test these latching panic stations?
Test monthly by activating the station and verifying proper latching and reset function. Clean contacts and lubricate moving parts annually. Check mounting screws and electrical connections during routine maintenance. Keep reset keys secure but accessible to authorized personnel.
10) What other Alarm Controls panic station models are available?
Alarm Controls offers momentary contact stations, weather-resistant models, and vandal-resistant options. The RP series provides non-latching operation. Browse our Alarm Controls collection for complete product range and specifications.
11) Can these stations work in outdoor or harsh environments?
Standard KR models are designed for interior use. For exterior applications, consider weather-resistant versions with appropriate IP ratings. Protect from direct moisture exposure and extreme temperatures unless specified for outdoor use.
12) What are the typical dimensions and clearance requirements?
Most KR stations measure approximately 4.5" wide by 4.5" high. Allow adequate clearance around the unit for proper activation. Verify specific model dimensions and door prep requirements from manufacturer templates before cutting or drilling.
