Motor lock STEP 550

– a powerful and fast motor lock for door environments with high-security requirements

STEP 550 is a motor lock with a hook bolt and a latch bolt for door environments with high-security requirements. The lock can be used as both a night lock and an extremely secure day lock. It is designed for high-frequency door environments.

The lock case is made of stainless steel and has a modern bolt placement with the hook bolt located in the center of the lock case. This powerful lock can be installed in door environments that are used frequently.

For door environments with the toughest burglary requirements

STEP 550 is one of the most secure motor locks on the market and can be installed in door environments with the most stringent burglary protection requirements. The hook bolt is extremely strong, fast, and can withstand significant stress.

The lock is suitable for security class 1, 2, 3 according to SSF 200 and is certified for the highest burglary protection, class 5, according to SSF 3522, as well as Grade 7 according to SS-EN 14846:2008. It can be included as a locking mechanism in many well-reputed security door fittings for class RC3 and RC4.

STEP 550 has an extremely strong hook bolt that is also blocked and locked in the closed position. The breaking strength is 56 kN (5,600 kg). The lock also has a panic lock function.

Evacuation and re-entry

STEP 550 also serves as an evacuation lock in SSF 3522 class 2B when used with STEP Exit emergency exit devices. It can be equipped with an angled emergency device for alarmed exits or with SplitGo device for continuous use in push position. Certified according to EN 179:2008.

During evacuation, the control unit can manage re-locking or re-entry in several ways that can be customized to the needs of the facility. Continuous re-entry, time-controlled, and/or fire alarm-controlled.

Recovery of the re-entry mode can be done with a key, a reset input, or a reset fire alarm.

For doors with fire safety requirements

Certified in fire resistance class E/EI120 according to EN 14846:2008.

Control unit with many smart features

The control unit ST500C uses encrypted communication OSDP AES-128 for locking, unlocking and status indications. It can handle up to two motor locks. These can be controlled individually or synchronized for connection to access control systems, alarms and central function.

Re-entry options

With STEP 550, you have the ability to configure several different re-entry options through the control unit:

No re-entry
Fire alarm-triggered re-entry
Mechanical re-entry + optional fire alarm-triggered (override)
Timed re-entry 3-60 minutes + optional fire alarm-triggered (override)

The re-entry function can be reset via a key, reset signal, or reset fire alarm.

Manipulation protected barrier

The lock has a double blocking, where the hook bolts block also has a manipualtion protected barrier. The barrier’s position is monitored by an optical sensor, ensuring that it is indeed locked. The barrier is completely shielded from access, thus providing protection against tampering.

With unique FreeDrive^®technology

The FreeDrive^® technology enables the locks motor and gearbox to disengages every time the door unlocks mechanically. This means that the wear minimizes when using lever handle, knob, keys or emergency exit device. Locks with FreeDrive^® used together with STEP Exit on doors with emergency exits can therefore be used thousands of times every day.

Approved with Söderhamn Innovation’s Emergency Opener

STEP 550 is approved in conjunction with the T+P emergency opener from Söderhamn Innovation.

Functional description STEP 550

The hook bolt locks/unlocks electrically via opening signal from access control system, code lock, push button or similar.
The hook bolt lock/unlocks mechanically via cylinder follower.
The latch bolt retracts mechanically via the lever handle follower with lever handle, from the interior and exterior side.
The latch bolt is reversible to fit both right and left hung doors.

Combine with STEP Exit to maximize the benefits of FreeDrive^®

Combine with the STEP Exit emergency exit device to create a safer evacuation route with unparalleled user-friendliness and, furthermore, to maximize the benefits of the FreeDrive^® technology.

The FreeDrive^® technology disconnects the motor and gearbox, meaning that they are never affected when the exit device’s lever is used. As a result, the impact on the motor and gearbox is minimized, even if the exit device is used thousands of times each day.
