#1400 Universal Door Lock Release Flag Installation Guide - Designed to attach to different interlocks so the same release tool can be used. Mounting on the connecting rod is also the same for locks with simular assemblies.
Tri-lok’s versatility is especially helpful where different interlocks are used in the same building complex or on campuses.
