Vanderbilt Partners with Allegion™ US to Enhance Facility Protection
September 2018 by Emmanuelle Lamandé
Vanderbilt announced it has added more functionality to its Vanderbilt Security
Management System (SMS) software through a new integration with Allegion™.
The integration expands
the reach of Vanderbilt’s SMS to secondary doors through Allegion’s Von
Duprin Remote Undogging (RU) and Remote Monitoring (RM) options in a
variety of markets, including enterprise, K-12 and university facilities.
The Allegion Von Duprin RU option provides an electronic override of
mechanical dogging for emergency facility lockdown and includes sensors for
monitoring. The RM option is a sensor-only configuration for exit-only or
fire-rated doors that require monitoring and increased visibility. Coupled
with Vanderbilt SMS, users can now remotely monitor and lock down secondary
perimeter doors with the touch of a button in the event of an emergency.
