Timer Boards

What they are and how they simplify installations

Interlocked vestibules, delayed egress, secure bathrooms, automatic operators all have a timing component that typically requires custom wiring, logic, and both a timer and relay to make the scenario function. Every extra layer in that installation introduces more opportunities for human error, points of failure, and increases the possibility of needing a technician to troubleshoot a malfunctioning system. Timer modules handle multiple parts of that process within a single board.

A timer board or timer module is a relay with a time-controlled output to automate the timing of connected devices including electric strikes, door locks and other peripheral security devices.

 

LifeSafety Power T4 Timer Module - Coming soon!

The T4 Timer Module, a new LifeSafety Power board coming soon, streamlines installation for door scenarios that normally demand custom relay-and-timer logic. This one board solves for seven different time reliant door scenarios, streamlining the hardware that installers need to keep on-hand and to keep their teams trained to implement. See all seven modes and their ideal applications below. 

If you will be at GSX 2026, come see us in booth 1123 to see the T4 Timer Module in person.
