Archived "Push until alarm sounds door will open in 15 seconds"

[Science250]

It says this at my store on the emergency exit on the side of the store in the clothing section. Should you really have to wait 15 seconds in an emergency to open the door?

Not if you're on fire.

There is a delay, so folks won't think it is an exit without paying from the store. An lod can turn it off, if it is a false alarm.

Mine say that too, but you can just push it open...

Yes. Its a new AP program. Apparently, your store has too many push outs and this is a 'solutions'. Now ETL-AP has to call to get it unlocked immediately. Discovered this during a huddle to explain where our storm spots where because we had brief power outage.

Push outs?

There needs to be something on the cart that sets off an ALARM if the cart hasn't been scanned by the cashier.

Corporate, take heed of this.
