Panic Device, Charlotte, NC

Ensure that your property meets safety and building codes with the right panic device.

Have you ever heard that you shouldn’t yell “fire” in a crowded theater? While the scenario feels like an old cliché, there is some truth behind the logic of not inciting a panic response in a crowd. When people panic, many parts of the brain cease to work so that more concentration can be focused on the areas of survival. This means that tasks you would think you know how to complete may be forgotten in a state of panic. For example, many people forget how to dial 9-1-1 in times of an emergency! It is for this reason that fire codes and other building regulations insist upon the installation of a panic device on exit doors and other key areas of a building.
