NICE / APOLLO MX5152 Remote Exit Button
The Nice Apollo MX5152 remote exit button is used to provide a simple push-button command for authorized exit from the secure side of a gate. In a typical access-control layout, this type of button is mounted where a driver, guard, or authorized user can easily reach it, often on a gooseneck pedestal near the exit lane. It is commonly used when a full keypad, card reader, or telephone entry station is not needed for the secure-side release point. The important fitment question is not just the button itself, but how it communicates or wires into the gate control system. The controller must be configured so the button activates the correct open or exit input without bypassing required safety devices.

Before Ordering Checklist
- Confirm the original part number on the installed component or parts diagram.
- Confirm the operator model, control box, accessory system, or enclosure family.
- Check voltage, frequency, code capacity, cable length, mounting pattern, and included hardware where applicable.

Professional Advisory
Gate operator electrical work, control-board replacement, battery/charging repairs, and access-control wiring should be handled carefully. Do not bypass monitored safety devices, fuses, grounding, photo eyes, or safety edges. If the gate moves unpredictably, has exposed wiring, or involves high-voltage diagnosis, use a qualified gate technician.
Product Q&A
What is MX5152 used for?
MX5152 is used as a remote exit or request-to-exit button for compatible gate access-control systems.
Is this a safety device?
No. It is a command button. It should not be used in place of required photo eyes, safety edges, or other monitored entrapment-protection devices.
Where is a remote exit button usually installed?
It is commonly installed on the secure side of a gate, often near the exit lane on a pedestal or post.
Does MX5152 work with every gate opener?
No. The receiver/interface and gate controller input must be compatible with the way the button sends the open or exit command.
Can it be used with MX5153?
MX5153 is a gooseneck pedestal. The two can be used in the same access-control station when the mounting and wiring/radio layout are appropriate.
