Door interlock systems control the entry and exit of personnel and material in secured areas. Two or more doors create an airlock, where only one door can open at a time to provide an added level of security and safety in a controlled environment. When used in sterile or sanitary applications, door interlocking can be used to manage airflow. It can preserve air purity and restrict contamination between rooms so that production quality is not impacted.
Sentry Interlocks consists of a team of experts with years of experience. We’ve developed a full ecosystem that addresses two long-standing issues in the industry: complexity and inflexibility. Request more information today to find out how simple installing an interlock controller can be.
Designing, building and installing a traditional door interlock system is complicated because there are many variables involved. Ensuring that the interlocking scheme between multiple doors allows the movement of personnel and material in a logical and safe fashion is challenging. From the mechanical side, there is a wide variety of door types, electric locks, door position sensors and door accessories that need to be integrated into a cohesive system. Incorporating access control, building management systems (BMS) and fire alarm systems adds yet another layer of complexity.
The Sentry Interlocks family of door interlocks provides a predesigned door control solution that is extremely simple to specify, order, program and install. You can start ordering the right system now.

The features and flexibility of the Sentry Interlocks system are designed specifically to meet the needs of a wide variety of applications in:
Clean room door interlock systems are used to ensure sterile cleanliness and to prevent cross-contamination during product development and research. Our door interlocking systems for pharmaceuticals can also manage air pressure between rooms and help you meet Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) compliance requirements and regulatory standards.
Our door interlock systems can be used by manufacturers to control the passage of materials between areas with different cleanliness classifications, ensuring compliance. Interlock door systems also keep workers safe from hazardous materials and machines by preventing unauthorized persons from entering high-risk areas. These door systems work to protect your proprietary trade secrets by ensuring multiple people can’t enter a door using one access code or pass.
This specific manufacturing process often requires low dew points, ultra-clean environments and strict safety protocols. Interlock door systems help you create highly-controlled spaces for sensitive processes.
Meet industry compliance requirements with interlock door systems that prevent contamination. Create change areas for workers and restricted spaces. Integrate your system with security to evaluate who accesses food production areas and when.
In research and development, a system-wide door interlock solution can prevent unauthorized entry and control access to sensitive areas. It can also help prevent contaminants from affecting sensitive studies. Integrated with security systems, interlock solutions protect your intellectual property.
Interlock systems are useful for operating suites and gowning rooms, providing a secure and clean environment for surgery prep and putting on and removing personal protective equipment. Integrated with other safety systems, interlock door systems help minimize the spread of microorganisms and biohazards.
Interlock systems provide an extra layer of security by controlling the flow of personnel.
Sentry Interlocks uses a predesigned, stand-alone module as the basis of design for the three types of interlocking solutions. This approach makes the design, implementation and field adjustment of your door interlock system quick and easy. The module design incorporates all aspects of field-proven door interlocking technology. The modules can ship preprogrammed to your locking scheme. Installation is easy with the use of plug-and-play cables and a minimum number of components to wire up.
While simple, the modular system is powerful. Easily set up a two-door interlock system or an entire facility system that can be operated remotely. You can even set up touchless entry.
