Installation instructions for locks
- Switching from working to quiescent current The lock is set to working current mode ex works. Switching to quiescent current mode is done via a slide switch on the back of the lock case. The switch has to be moved upwards to activate the quiescent current mode. Switching can be done in de-energised as well as energised state.
- In quiescent current mode, the lever handles or the outside lever handle are inactive as long as the lock is energised.
- As soon as the lock’s power supply fails or the power/data connection to the I/O module is interrupted, the lever handle(s) are automatically activated.
- The quiescent current function must be tested after commissioning the door and checked at least 1x per year by means of a function test.
Latch conversion type 10 and centre lock
- Notes on lever handles and cylinders
- We recommend the use of lever handles/handle sets with a hold-up spring.
- The multipoint locking sytems autosafe 837/837P are offered with profile cylinder and round cylinder perforation.
- Standard profile cylinders can be used. A free-wheeling function (FZG) or an anti-panic cylinder with defined locking bar position are not required.
- Round cylinders with the dimensions shown can be used (locking circle R15).
Installation instructions for one-piece/standard strike plates
- The multipoint locking systems autosafe 837 and autosafe 837P are part of the FUHR system solutions, thus the standard single or one-piece strike plates can be used as a basis. For outward opening doors, profile-related sliding pieces must be used for the three latching bolts.
Mounting the magnetic releases type 10
We recommend the use of the following magnets:

Replacing the latch part
- The cases for the latching bolt have to be ordered separately and exchanged for the standard latch parts:
- Profile-specific versions
- Can be used left/right
- Anchor screws can be used in the bottom of the locking part
- Galvanised steel
- Suitable for fire protection
- Not adjustable
Positioning the standard/one-piece strike plates
- A reliable function of the automatic lock is guaranteed if the one-piece or standard strike plates are positioned correctly to the lock. An adjustment can be made via the hinges.
Adjustment of the standard/one-piece strike plates
- For optimum tightness of the door, the one-piece/standard strike plates can be adjusted.
Use of a deadbolt switching contact
- The FUHR one-piece and standard strike plates type 4/10/11 can be equipped with a deadbolt switching contact for lock monitoring, e.g. for integration into an alarm system or a building management system.

Installation and fixing instructions
General instructions for automatic locks FUHR autosafe 837/837P
- Applicable for single-leafed elements made of timber, aluminium and steel as well as for double-leafed doors with demand leaf.
- The sash and frame must run parallel to each other over the entire height. The FUHR autosafe locking system is not designed to straighten strained or warped door leaves.
- Solely profile cylinders according to DIN 18252 or round cylinders have to be installed.
- We recommend the use of lever handles/handle sets with a hold-up spring.
- Main-lock casing routing in accordance with the drawing.
- The routing for the profile cylinder and lever-handle must be aligned.
- Never carry out hardware drilling work with the lock installed.
- Before installing the lock, all impurities are to be removed from the routed area e.g. swarf.
- Screw fix faceplates and strikers with Ø 4 mm screws, their length adapted to the profile system.
- The installation screws must be screwed in at a right angle to the faceplate.
- Upon tightening the faceplate screws, ensure that the connecting-rods can move freely.
- Observe the exact location of the strikers in accordance with the drawing, in order to warrant secure engagement of the locking system.
- Ensure that both the latch and all locking components close softly.
- For SKG-certified aluminium doors: Attach faceplate and strike plates with the aluminium profile with screws of a 4 mm diameter, length matching to the profile system.
- For SKG-certified timber doors: Attach faceplate and strike plates with screws of a 4 mm diameter and 40 mm in length.
- Never resort to violent measures in the event of arduous operation after installing the lock! Instead find out the reason and fix it.
- When transporting doors – also when the lock is locked – protect the door leaf against permanent dislocation.
Additional instructions for emergency exit locks FUHR autosafe 837P
- When using locking cylinders, the operating element (key, knob, etc.) must not obstruct the operation of the push bar or touch bar in any position.
- Door gaskets (e.g. profile gaskets, floor gaskets) may not have an effect on the smooth operation and stipulated function of the emergency exit door lock.
- When using a panic push bar or a touch bar, its rotary motion must be lined up with the spindle receiver hole but min. 22° rotary motion.
- The fixing of panic and /or emergency exit locks can differ depending on the door material. In order to mount panic bars and lever handles reliably, through bolts should be use.
- If a door closer is installed, one should take into account that children, disabled persons and elderly people operating the door are not unnecessarily hindered.
- Before installing a fire protection/smoke protection door, ensure that the emergency exit door lock is suitable for that particular door.
- If the emergency exit door locks are to be mounted on glazed doors, care must be taken to ensure that the glass parts are safety glass or laminated safety glass.
- Panic /emergency exit locks are not suitable for use on swing doors.
- Panic push bars or lever handles are usually installed at a height of between 900 mm and 1100 mm above the surface of the finished floor (with the door closed). If it is known that the majority of the users in a building are small children, a reduction of the height the bar should be considered (see FUHR kindergarten solution on www.fuhr.de).
- On panic exit hardware the panic push bar should be installed in order to achieve the most effective rod length.
- Upon installing emergency exit locks with lever handle operation (particularly on doors with stepped surfaces), any possible safety hazards (e.g. trapped fingers or clothes) should be avoided as far as possible.
- A pictogram with opening information should be attached to the inside of exit doors.
Maintenance and care
- The further points raised here provide supplementary information to the FUHR Product Liability Information for door locks, see www.fuhr.de. Its compliance is to be pointed out to both builders and users. In the event of non-compliance with these imperative instructions, faultless lock operation cannot be warranted. The FUHR autosafe locking system may only be used in conjunction with the components supplied. Otherwise no warranty can be adopted.
- It is necessary to point out to builders and users that safety-relevant hardware components – depending on their frequency of use – are to be checked for wear and tear and if they are mechanically secured at least once a month, but after approx. 20,000 cycles of operation at the latest. At the same time the panic/ emergency opening function is to be checked. Depending on the requirements, fixing screws must be tightened or the damaged or worn parts exchanged for original parts by a specialised company.
- Furthermore it is necessary to point out to builders and users that the following service work is to be carried out simultaneously:
- All moving parts have to be checked for their correct function.
- When the door is open, lightly grease the slopes of the three latching bolts. Do not oil! Use only acid-free multi-purpose grease, e.g. FUHR contact grease (art. no. VNZ80077).
- Ensure that the keepers are free from obstruction.
- Check that no additional locking devices have been added to the door since its original installation.
- Check periodically that all components of the system are still correct in accordance with the list of approved components originally supplied with the system.
- Check periodically that the operating element is correctly tightened.
- By using a force gauge, measure and record the operating forces to release the exit device. Check that the operating forces have not changed significantly from the operating forces recorded when originally installed.
- Only cleaning and maintenance agents, which do not damage the corrosion protection of the hardware components, are to be used.
- We recommend you consider a service and maintenance contract with an authorised specialist company
