Abstract
A vault door system for use in a vault includes a door supporting a plurality of locking bolts that move between locked and unlocked positions. A drive system includes a prime mover and a drive train. The prime mover actuates the drive train to move the locking bolts between the locked and unlocked positions. An inner handle is at an inner side of the door and is arranged to be accessible from an interior of the vault. The inner handle is operatively coupled to the drive train and is movable between a first position and a second position. In the first position, the drive train operatively couples the prime mover to the plurality of locking bolts so that the prime mover can move the locking bolts between the locked and unlocked positions. In the second position, the drive train does not operatively couple the prime mover to the plurality of locking bolts.
