Looking to install magnetic lock on a garden gate.
Sounded quite simple, but then you can start to over think it.
The gate will have a lock which can be released from a switch in the house, and by a key pad on the street side of the gate.
As you are outside I presume an emergency break glass is not needed, as many gates are locked.
But if you give some one access, to come in through the gate, provision should be there for them to be able to release the gate, so they can get out?
Ive looked to see the regulations for garden gate access (This is just a domestic property) but can seem to find any guide lines.
So basically what switching would be advisable to have in place
So you will have...
The keypad for access from the street
The house switch to open the gate for visitors
A local switch so someone in the garden can get out?
(Emergency switch?)
As I say this is a garden gate, and not a fire escape as such
Hope that make sense
