Designed for busy facilities, this retrofit kit converts 3690 and 3790 exit devices into access-control-ready components that integrate seamlessly with security, surveillance and door monitoring systems.

Installation is simple and cost-effective compared with full hardware replacement, making it ideal for retrofits in commercial, institutional, and healthcare environments.
