The Redlam Ceramic Panic Bolt MK 2 is a robust security solution specifically engineered for internal emergency exit doors and interconnecting passageways. Manufactured from high-grade cast aluminium, this device provides a balance between daily security and emergency accessibility.

The mechanism functions by holding a spring-loaded bolt in place using a sacrificial ceramic tube. In the event of an emergency, the tube is shattered using the provided hammer, which is secured to the unit by a chain. Once the tube is broken, the bolt retracts, allowing the door to be opened instantly. For doors requiring two-way access, the MK 2 model features a push knob on the reverse side, allowing the bolt to be operated without breaking the tube from that direction.

Unlike traditional glass-based panic bolts, the Redlam ceramic tube is designed to break cleanly into safe pieces, eliminating the risk of injury from sharp shards. This makes it particularly suitable for high-traffic environments or locations where safety is paramount. It is commonly installed as a replacement or new-build component in commercial and industrial settings to maintain fire safety regulations while preventing unauthorised use of emergency exits.
