CrossingGard® Model ERG-IBC is an Emergency Response Grille designed to help address both security and safety issues in public areas. CrossingGard provides the security of a locked, rolling grille — but immediately responds in an emergency situation to fully open automatically and allow safe escape. Cornell's exclusive CrossingGard e-gress grille is always on duty to provide separation control, yet still allows access to an alternate means of escape.

Security grilles are used to securely separate two spaces while still providing airflow and visibility. Cornell's durable Rolling Security Grilles keep areas off-limits, require little to no maintenance and can be configured to meet your desired aesthetic. This product is excellent for storefronts, school corridors and in healthcare settings.

Rolling Security Grilles provide the following benefits :

• Security : Grilles prevent unauthorized access and discourage forced entry at building exterior openings, storefronts or areas within buildings, such as pharmacies or parts counters. Used behind plate glass storefronts, they are a deterrent to smash-and-grab crime.
• Aesthetics : A variety of metal finishes from polished stainless to deep bronze are available to contribute to visual aesthetics as well as curtain configurations in straight or brick pattern.
• Design Flexibility : Our grilles are built to order to fit your opening size, operation and option preferences.
• Space-saving : Curtain stores in a compact coil at the head of an opening for fuller use of the interior space.
• Early Installation Option : Early/easy self-supporting installation system lets grilles be fitted in before walls are built and before there is an opening.
• Low life cycle cost : Rugged construction and quality materials assure long life and less costly maintenance.

The grilles are constructed for daily use and can withstand operation of up to 20cycles per day – that’s 50K cycles for the lifetime of the grille. Dependent on curtain configuration and spring selection.

If your requirements call for increased speed (up to 24 inches per second), more than 50 cycles per day, or 300,000 cycles lifetime, consider Cornell's line of High Performance Products
