The Detex WDEx10EEX Weatherized Easy Kit is a complete, pre-configured solution for securing outdoor exit points where weather and environmental conditions would compromise standard exit hardware. Designed for high-traffic, moisture-prone environments, this kit delivers delayed egress capability—featuring a 15-second exit delay and a 100dB alarm—to deter theft, manage crowd movement, and protect at-risk individuals such as children or residents in assisted living environments.
Unlike traditional systems, the WDEx10EEX does not require an electromagnetic lock. Instead, the panic hardware itself provides delayed egress functionality, simplifying installation and enhancing durability. This factory-programmed and pre-wired kit includes all essential components in a single part number, reducing the risk of misordered parts and saving valuable time for specifiers and installers.
The WDEx series is ideal for use in garden centers, amusement parks, sports arenas, daycare centers, assisted living facilities, and any outdoor location where reliable exit delay functionality must stand up to the elements.
