ERICA – External Release Internal Chain Access

ERICA - External Release Internal Chain AccessA completely unique style of door chain, ERICA can be fitted in the same position on a door as a conventional chain. The chain body engages with a standard rim cylinder on the outside of the door, thus enabling the chain to be disengaged with a key from outside in emergencies. Where night latches are used, the same key could be used on both chain and lock.
