Break away levers are designed with a break-away point on the lever that will cause the lever to break off with excessive torque. This break away lever cannot be reset and will need to be replaced.
Vandlgard prevents damage to internal lock components caused by excessive force from hitting or standing on the lever to gain access. When the lock is locked, the lever will rotate in the downward direction and will return to its horizontal position without engaging the latch. Once the lock is unlocked the lever will be able to retract the latch.
