They can be configured to be used as "regular" maglocks on most any
access control system.  They've got a bunch of different options for
each model lock.  We use them a lot to keep unauthorized people from
going outside a building into a protected area.  Think airport
terminal dumping into a controlled outdoor area.  If there is a life
threatening emergency, however, people must be able to get out.
