Winkhaus locking systems are put through very stringent tests to meet the requirements of
today’s environment, including cycle testing.
The current requirement for PAS 23/24 is 50,000 full cycles of the door-set in order to simulate
10 years average use.
The requirement for maintenance is totally dependent on usage and environment, i.e. In areas
of high dust or corrosive atmospheres, the requirement for
lubrication will be more frequent than normal.
We therefore recommend that a light application of our GLS200
Lubricant Spray be used into the apertures of the hooks, dead-
bolt and latch and into both sides of the cylinder. In normal
usage Bi-annual application would be more than sufficient.
To prevent any damaging effect to the corrosion protection of
Winkhaus fittings, only PER neutral cleaning and care agents
should be used, which do not contain any abrasives.
We also strongly recommend that the door set is checked over
for any movement, swelling or distortion of either sash or frame,
if necessary check for debris of any kind interfering with any of
the moving parts behind the mechanism itself. This operation
will require the mechanism to be removed and replaced by a
competent person. Any loose or missing fixing screws should be
tightened or replaced as required.
Under no circumstances should any aspect of the lock or
cylinder be tampered with in any way, as this may affect both
the serviceable life and guarantee.
