Check operation of the coded front plate

Turn the front plate over and note that the red tipped tumblers inside correspond to the code. The code may be entered in any sequence, i.e. 1370 may be entered as 3710 or any other sequence of those numbers. There are a total of 8,191 codes available, any of which may be entered in any order.
If you intend to change the code you should do it, if convenient, before installing the lock – see the Code Change instructions.

The CL400 model is intended to replace the conventional door furniture fitted to an existing mortice latch, or an existing mortice lock which has both a spring latch and a deadbolt. The square follower should be 8mm square. Any lock and key mechanism is retained to operate the deadbolt.

The mortice lock case will require a hole 22mm below the follower. See figure 1 and confirm that your lockcase is compatible with the CL400 lock plates.

 

 

If your lockcase has a hole below the follower (fig.1 ‘A’), proceed as follows:

1. Hold the black neoprene seal with the three holes against the door, perfectly vertically, with the rectangular hole centrally over the follower.

Mark the top and bottom holes on the door face, and repeat the procedure on the other side of the door. Remove the lock.

At both points drill a 12mm hole through the door. Drill from both sides for greater accuracy and to avoid splintering out of the door face. Check that the existing spindle hole is at least 18mm diameter. Replace the lock.

2. Take the BLUE or RED tipped spindle and fit to the code side according to the hand of your door (see diagram). 

Fit the butterfly spindle to the inside, non-code side.

 


3. Check that the lever handles are correctly fitted for the hand of door. To change the hand of a lever handle, loosen the grub screw with the small Allen key, reverse the lever handle and fully tighten the grub screw.

4. Cut two of the black socket head screws to the required length for your door. Approximate overall length should be door thickness plus 25mm, to allow about 10mm of threaded bolt to enter the outside plate.

5. Apply the front and back plates, with the neoprene seals in position, against the door, over the protruding ends of the spindle.

6. Fix the two plates together using the socket head bolts, starting with the top fixing. Ensure that the two plates are truly vertical and then tighten the bolts. Do not use excessive force.

7. Before closing the door, enter the code and ensure that the latchbolt will retract when the lever handle is depressed. Now check the operation of the inside lever handle. If there is any binding of the handles or latch then loosen the bolts slightly and reposition the plates slightly until the correct position is found, and then re-tighten the bolts.
