About this item
If you've ever managed a single-occupancy restroom in a busy office, healthcare facility, or retail space, you know the problem. People rattle the handle. They knock when nobody's in there. They wait outside an empty room because there's no way to tell it's open. The BEA 10RESTROOMKIT fixes all of that in one box.
If you searched "bea bathroom kit", "bea restroom kit", "restroom kit", "10restroomkit", "restroom door locks", "br3", "bea kit", "10 bea", "restroom access control solution", or "kit bea" - you're in the right place.
What's Actually Inside the Box
This is a complete four-component system. Everything you need to wire up a single-occupancy restroom door is included:
10BR3X - BR3-X programmable 3-relay logic module. This is the brain. It's a 13-function advanced logic module that handles all the sequencing - locking commands, occupied state management, door position verification, and system reset on exit. Relay 1 has a WET output, meaning it can directly supply the voltage to power an electric strike, electromagnetic lock, or electrified latch. You don't need an extra power supply or intermediate relay for the locking device. That's a real wiring time-saver on an install.
10PTLBUTTON - Push-to-lock button with LED. This mounts inside the restroom. The occupant pushes it to lock the door. The LED lights up to confirm the lock actually engaged - not just that the button was pressed, but that the BR3-X confirmed the lock is active. That distinction matters when someone's about to pull their pants down.
10LEDSOUNDER - Occupied LED and sounder indicator. Mounts outside the restroom. When the room is locked, this lights up and can produce an audible tone. "Occupied When Lit" - clear, simple, visible before anyone grabs the handle. The sounder is selectable, so you can turn it off in environments where the beep would be disruptive.
10SWITCH1084 - Door position switch. This one's the piece nobody talks about but it's critical. It mounts on the door frame and monitors whether the door is fully closed. If the occupant presses the push-to-lock button before the door is completely seated in the frame, the BR3-X blocks the lock command. The door has to be closed before the system allows locking. And when someone manually exits, this switch is what resets the whole system back to its starting state automatically.
Normally Locked vs Normally Unlocked: Both Modes Covered
Most competitor pages mention this but don't explain what it actually means operationally. Here's how each mode works.
Normally locked: The restroom starts locked. Someone outside presses an access button to unlock the door and enter. Once they're inside and the door closes, they press the 10PTLBUTTON to lock it. The 10LEDSOUNDER shows occupied outside. When they leave, the door position switch detects the door opening and the system relocks automatically for the next user.
Normally unlocked: The restroom starts open and freely accessible. An occupant enters, the door closes behind them, and they press the 10PTLBUTTON to lock it. The 10LEDSOUNDER shows occupied. When they leave, the door position switch resets the system to unlocked.
You configure which mode you need through the BR3-X's 13-function logic - no hardware swaps, just configuration.
"BR3" and "Restroom Access Control Solution": This Is What Those Searches Are About
If you searched "br3" specifically, you're looking for the BR3-X logic module (part number 10BR3X). It's also available as a standalone component for custom access control wiring projects. As part of this kit it comes pre-set with restroom control functionality, but its 13-function programmability means it can handle other sequencing tasks when repurposed.
"Restroom access control solution" is the right term for what this system is. It's not just a lock - it's a coordinated sequence of lock control, occupancy signaling, door position verification, and automatic system reset that works without any staff involvement once it's installed and configured.
Ontario Regulation 368/13 Compliance
For Canadian projects governed by Ontario Regulation 368/13 - the provincial accessibility regulation covering single-occupancy washroom requirements - the 10RESTROOMKIT satisfies the relevant hardware provisions. The exterior occupied indicator and the interior locking with visual confirmation both address the regulation's requirements directly.
