Hi Phil,
I think it is completely correct in this context. You will even find a photo of a "overfaldstryk" in the pdf document provided by the link above. Furthermore, it makes perfect sense to me to have such a device in an office producing security-sensitive documents such as driving licenses.

Just to be clear: it this context it is referring to a "hold-up alarm device", although I'm sure there are probably other names for such devices.
Note from asker:
Thanks Diarmuid, but I'm not sure it's completely right in this context...on reflection maybe it's some kind of burglar alarm... Cheers anyway, you've got me on the right track :-)
On second thoughts, you're right... some sort of switch to flick or press if the facility is attacked... why did I even cast a shadow of doubt! Thanks again
