GEZE rLock EM 72/55 Electromechanical Lock PN EN 179 10-24V DC Emergency Exit

Product Overview

The GEZE rLock EM 72/55 is a self-locking and emergency escape electromechanical lock designed for integration in single-leaf emergency exit doors, compliant with PN EN 179 for escape route applications. Fabricated with a stainless steel case and faceplate, the lock is compatible with both right- and left-handed doors made from wood, steel, or profile materials and operates on a supply voltage of 10-24V DC, making it suitable for doors in commercial and institutional buildings.

The distinguishing feature of this lock is its rapid reconfiguration mechanism, enabling fast conversion between right- and left-hand locking without specialist tools, which minimizes installation errors and reduces on-site labor costs. This is advantageous for contractors managing large-scale projects or refurbishment works where door orientation varies. It is particularly suited for bulk installation in commercial buildings, public facilities, or fire-rated and smoke-control door assemblies requiring certified, access-controlled emergency exits.
