About this file

This document is a product book for The Door Switch™, a specialized door safety system designed for behavioral healthcare facilities. The system includes multiple components such as a door switch/header assembly, continuous and electric hinges, control panel, keypad, strobe relay module, and various other electronic monitoring devices. Key features include electronic event logging of up to 512 events, 24/7 system component supervision, switch activation with one pound of pressure, and compatibility with new construction or retrofit installations. The system is specifically engineered to detect potential ligature risks by providing immediate alarm activation when a door is compromised, with components like strobe lights, audible alarms, and keyswitches to enhance patient safety. The product is patented (Patent Nos. RE42,991 and RE44,039) and manufactured by a company located in St. Louis, Missouri, with comprehensive documentation detailing technical specifications and installation requirements for each system component.
