With the door in the closed position and 
standing on the opening side. Check that there 
is a 3-4mm gap between the edge of the leaf 
and the edge of the frame. The air gap must be 
consistent from the top to the bottom of the 
lock jamb. 

Please note

: If the gap is greater than 4.00mm 

the trigger will not meet the ramp on the keep 
and prevent the door from closing correctly.

To check the alignment of the keeps. Open the 
door slightly and visually check the centre of 
the latches line up with the centre of the rollers 
on the keeps, the keeps have a +/- 2.00mm 
horizontal and vertical adjustment if they 
require repositioning.

Check that there 

Is a 4mm gap

Between the edge

of the leaf and the

edge of the frame

Open the door, depress the steel trigger 
between the latch and deadbolt in the centre 
gearbox, both top and bottom hooks and 
centre deadbolt will be thrown into the locked 
position. To retract the deadbolt and hooks 
rotate the thumbturn cylinder away from the 
lock jamb.

If the lock operates with the door open but has 
a stiff key operation with the door closed this 
may indicate that the centre and hook keeps 
require adjusting (see item 2).  

If the lock has a stiff key operation with the 
door open this, this may indicate a problem 
with the lock or cylinder. If this is the case, 
please refer to the trouble shooting guide.   

Latches should 
line up with centre 
line on the keeps

2 Hooks should 
fall into the locked
