In an emergency, seconds matter. The Surelock McGill Touch Bar for the Slimline ensures rapid, single-motion egress while delivering unmatched resistance to threats—keeping your building and everyone inside safe.
Built for high-traffic spaces like data centers, industrial sites, and government buildings, the Touch Bar delivers dependable panic and emergency egress while withstanding ballistic, blast, and forced entry threats.
Our BHMA A156.3 Grade 1 and UL 305-listed mortise design prevents chaining of emergency doors, guaranteeing a clear exit path. With its distinctive 1" bolt retraction, the system—when combined with our Slimline multi-point lock—locks automatically on closure to block unauthorized entry.
Built from Grade 316 stainless steel, the Touch Bar endures over 1,000,000 cycles without compromising performance. Its design unites safety and resistance, ensuring dependable operation when time is most critical.
For facilities that require reliable life safety, maximum resistance, long-lasting durability, and top-tier security, the Touch Bar comes in three access configurations.
Mechanical
The Mechanical Touch Bar’s rugged design stands up to heavy use while enabling intuitive, single-motion egress. Paired with an approved locking system, it automatically engages all locking points when the door closes—delivering secure protection and a reliable emergency exit in one streamlined solution.
Motorized
The Touch Bar’s automated bolt retraction option ensures accessibility while maintaining single-motion egress. The Motorized Touch Bar connects to automatic door operators, retracts all bolts, and signals the door to open—then re-engages the bolts once the door is closed. A sliding cover gives technicians quick access to the motor and circuit board for simple servicing.
Delayed Egress
The Delayed Egress Touch Bar helps prevent unauthorized exit while maintaining safe, single-motion escape in emergencies. It connects directly to access control and fire detection systems, offers a programmable delay for fire code compliance, and releases instantly when the fire alarm sounds. All components are contained in the main housing for quick installation and servicing, with an audible siren and bright LED countdown guiding users during the delay.
The Touch Bar is available in custom sizes and finishes upon request.
