    Introducing the Argus 40: Compact, Stylish, and Secure When space is tight, security and functionality don't have to be compromised. The Argus 40 is your solution. With a length of just 1,200 mm, this sleek sensor barrier is designed to fit in the tightest spaces while maintaining premium standards. With these key features Argus 40 sets itself apart: Finishes: The Argus 40 by dormakaba integrates seamlessly into any space with its modular design, turning the security interlock into a central design element. Available in a range of finishes, it combines metal and glass with clear, opaque, monochrome, or contrasting surfaces, creating a stylish highlight in any environment. Smart emergency exit and escape route: The system’s locking unit can be released in an emergency. The door leaves can be brought to the open position. Sensors: The Argus 40 contains secure separation sensors, which are positioned efficiently in the leg area. This ensures that the door leaves move exactly before and after the person passes through and not while they are standing in the sensor area. They detect anti-tailgating, crawl-under attempts, and opposite direction movement, while distinguishing between luggage, wheelchairs, trolleys, slim legs, pets, and children. This ensures smooth, secure passage and enhances user experience. Whether it’s for corporate offices, public buildings, or restricted areas, the Argus 40 delivers both aesthetic appeal and peace of mind. 🔗 Learn more about the Argus 40 and how it can integrate with your access control systems and emergency exit systems: https://dk.world/48PKbEe
