Are time-delay mechanisms allowed on windows and doors?

The use of time-delay mechanisms on windows and doors of a group care facility (except for staffed residential homes licensed for five or fewer children) may be approved if:
(1) They meet the fire codes and approval of the WSP/FPB;
(2) There is an exterior door that ensures escape in the event of an evacuation;
(3) The time-delay mechanisms automatically unlock when the fire alarm goes off;
(4) The licensee has approval from the LD licensor stating that the program is in compliance with DCYF's behavior management guidelines; and
(5) The licensee has written approval from the LD administrator.
