M MARCUS LTD LAUNCHES NEXT GENERATION SAFETY WITH THE ISEO PUSH ELECTRO MOTORISED PANIC BAR
» IN AN ERA WHERE SAFETY, hygiene, and smart building functionality converge, M Marcus Ltd is proud to announce its partnership with ISEO to bring to market a transformative new product, the Push Electro motorised panic bar. This is not just an incremental upgrade, it’ s a meaningful leap in how we think about emergency exits, access control, and user wellbeing.
Traditional panic bars have long served their purpose as mechanical safety devices: simple, robust, and reliable. But modern buildings demand more. Hightraffic areas— such as hospitals, schools, offices, and public institutions— need solutions that can handle constant flow, integrate with electronic systems, and maintain rigorous hygiene standards. The Push Electro meets these needs.
Intelligent Motorisation for Effortless Access
Thanks to its built-in motor, the Push Electro can open the door automatically, triggered via buttons, switches, or accesscontrol systems. This reduces reliance on manual operation, offering a smoother, more controlled exit.
Flexible Operating Modes Hold-Open: For times when doors need to remain open( e. g. during busy hours) the hold-open function keeps them unlocked, though this should not be used in fire-rated doors for safety compliance.
Seamless Integration with Access Control
Push Electro integrates with ISEO’ s access control platforms, including existing systems. That means buildings can retrofit or expand their security architecture without ripping everything out, an important consideration for renovations or phased upgrades.
Permanent Antibacterial Protection
Hygiene is built into the device. The Push Electro is treated with AntiGerm ®, a permanent antibacterial coating that continuously releases silver ions to reduce bacteria by up to 99 % over its lifespan and with no maintenance needed.
In settings like hospitals, clinics, schools, and other high-sensitivity environments, this level of protection is a game changer.
Safety doesn’ t just mean a secure exit, it means knowing the door’ s status. The Push Electro provides real-time feedback on whether the door is open or closed, enabling proactive security management.
Complying with EN 1125, the device meets the rigorous European standard for panic exit devices.
Furthermore, its self-locking steel latchbolts enhance physical security and reliability.
The Push Electro is available in a range of finishes including black, metal grey, white, and a durable“ ENDUR4NCE” finish, so it can blend seamlessly with the architectural style of any building.
For existing installations, there’ s even a motor retrofit kit, enabling the motorisation of existing Push rim devices without full replacement.
For M Marcus Ltd, this launch is more than just adding a new product to our catalogue, it’ s about championing smarter, safer, and more future-proof building design. As a leading UK distributor of high-quality security hardware, our mission is to align with manufacturers who are genuinely pushing the boundaries. The ISEO Push Electro is exactly that: innovation that does not compromise on compliance or robustness.
The ability to retrofit existing panic hardware with motorisation means our clients can modernise their infrastructure in a cost-effective, minimally disruptive way. Coupled with its hygiene credentials and tight integration into access-control ecosystems, the Push Electro represents a strategic investment for architects, specifiers, and facility managers alike.
The introduction of ISEO’ s Push Electro by M Marcus Ltd is a clear statement: safety hardware is evolving. No longer should emergency exits be purely mechanical afterthoughts, they can and should be part of a broader, intelligent access-control strategy. With the Push Electro, M Marcus is delivering a product that doesn’ t just keep people safe it offers smarter, cleaner, more controllable exits. We believe that in the coming years, motorised panic bars like the Push Electro will become the norm, not the exception. And M Marcus Ltd is excited to lead that shift in the UK market.
