Door entry system has a retractive switch marked press to exit.
Can this be wired as a 2 way switch so door can be opened from 2 locations? Standard 2 way wiring?
Thanks.
 
Just need to wire an additional switch in parallel. Don't need to do it 2 way.
 
yes, all yo need to do is wire 2 switches in parallel,its not strictly 2 way as you are only using it to unlatch a lock not turn on and off.
