Installation

General information

1. An exit device complying with these European standards always consists of (Fig. 1):

• * A Mortise lock/Multi-point lock (active and/or passive leaf)

  • B Door hardware (active and/or passive leaf)
  • C Accessories (fixing material, square spindle, vertical rods, passive-leaf control lock)
  • D Keeper(s) (door frame, striker/latch&deadbolt striker, passive-leaf lock, floor strikers). Door closers E and locking cylinders F are not always required, but, if used, must be approved for use with the appropriate exit device (see www.g-u.com/de/downloads – Door Technology – „Zulässige Schließzylinder in Kombination mit BKS-Fluchttürschlössern“ (permissible locking cylinders in combination with BKS emergency door locks).
• Only those devices are allowed to be installed that use components listed in the EC certificate of conformity EN 179 or EN 1125. This also applies to the subsequent installation of spare parts.
• Due to different frame designs, it may be impossible for the manufacturer to supply an appropriate keeper. In this case, the fabricator takes over responsibility, in agreement with the manufacturer, to design and install an equivalent solution as demanded. See approved latch striker shapes (Fig. 3+4).
• Before installing the exit device, make sure the door is properly installed and is not warped.
• The deadbolt and vertical rods of the mortise lock and the additional latch bolts of the multi-point locks must be received by the keepers freely without frictional resistance, even when load is applied to the door.
• Also make sure that when retracted, the locking elements do not protrude so far as to obstruct the movement of the door.
• The exit device must operate smoothly and easily. If it does not move easily, this could be a sign of incorrect assembly or locked-up stress in the exit device.
• Make sure when using door gaskets that they do not impair the proper functioning of the exit device.
• Due to the design, other hole diameters or fixing types than those described which are not compatible with our fixing materials may be required. The fabricator is responsible for verifying that the exit device has been fastened correctly in these cases and they therefore do not constitute part of these assembly instructions.
• To guarantee a secure fixing a through-fixed screw connection is the most recommended installation.
• Check at double-leaf doors with rebated meeting stile that each leaf opens individually when the corresponding panic exit device is actuated and that both leaves open when both locks are operated at the same time. To ensure the door functions correctly, use of a carrier bar and a door-leaf coordinator (to EN 1158) is recommended to ensure the doors are not restrained and also close in the correct sequence. This particularly applies for fire/smoke protection doors.
• The activating horizontal bar must normally be installed at a height of 900–1100 mm above the finished floor level (FFL) with the door closed to achieve the greatest possible effective bar length.
• If most of the users are small children, lowering the installation height of the activating horizontal bar should be considered.
• To hold the door shut, no other devices than those approved to EN 1125 should be installed. However, this does not exclude the use of door closers.
• When using a door closer, it must be ensured that the door closer does not prevent children elderly or infirm persons from operating the door.
• Observe the installation, maintenance and operating instructions. It is particularly important to ensure that all keepers and covers are fully installed.
• Operators of such an exit device must be instructed about use as intended.
• Attach a visible pictograph indicating the operation of the handle to the inside of the door or in the escape direction directly above the door hardware, or on the hardware itself if it has a sufficiently large flat area to accommodate the lettering.
• All statutory regulations about use of the exit device on fire and smoke protection doors remain fully valid.

Installation advice

• T o install GU multi-point locks, use the appropriate GU factory drawing.
• After all drilling and milling work, blow out the profiles with compressed air so that the profile is free of chips.
• Make sure the spindle is free of tension and sits exactly on its axle.
• Make sure that the locking cylinder has an exact seat to avoid possible sluggishness during operation.
• Observe the specified clearance (permissible tolerance of ±1 mm).
• Make sure that the reference points of the strikers/latch&deadbolt striker and multi-point lock specified on the factory drawing all lie at precisely the same height.
• Make sure that the fixing screws of the door hardware are not improperly tightened (i.e., too tightly) and that the door hardware is properly positioned to avoid malfunctions of the multi-point lock.
• The tension rods must always be able to move freely behind the faceplate of the multi-point lock. For this reason:
  • use fixing screws that are not too large.
  • avoid screwing in the fixing screws at a cant.
  • prevent hardware parts from becoming jammed.
  • maintain a clearance to electrical cables.
• Using a clearance packer, for example, make sure that the leaf cannot be moved about the frame from transport to installation of the door. This prevents damage to the locking points, for example.
• Make sure that the latch bolts are not triggered or already extended when the door is open.
• In addition, observe the pictographs on the last page of these instructions.

Installation

• Check the exit device for completeness, as well as the approvals for the individual components.
• Insert the mortise locks/multi-point lock into the prepared lock recesses and fix it the lock in place.
• Fix the keepers (latch and deadbolt striker/strikers) into the door frame or passive leaf. The latch bolts and deadbolts must be able to glide into the strikers freely and without friction at all times. If necessary, adapt the keeper shapes to the door situation (Fig. 2).
• Install the locking cylinder (if present). Do not tighten the cylinder fixing screw yet.
• Mark the fixing points for the door hardware on the inside and outside of the door using the drilling template provided.
• Remove the locking cylinder (if present) and the mortise lock/multi-point lock from the lock recesses. Drill the fixing borehole from the marked points to the lock recesses.
• Reinstall the mortise lock/multi-point lock and locking cylinder (if present) as described in Sections 2 and 4.
• Install the door hardware under the enclosed instructions and then tighten the cylinder fixing screw.
• Perform a function check of the exit device with the door open.

Commissioning and functional check

After installing the multi-point locks, lubricate the rear of the completely extended latch bolts using non-resiniferous grease. While the door is open, perform a functional check as described in the following:

• Release the latch bolts by pushing the trigger lever in the locking direction. The latch bolts will extend by 20 mm.

Only in the case of multi-point locks for single-leaf doors:
Press the latch bolts (with max. 20 N) to test whether they are properly secured against being pressed back. After the test, you must pull back the latchbolts again by actuating the lever handle (or cylinder in case of panic function E).

Product liability

According to the German Product Liability Act, which defines the liability of a manufacturer for its products, the following information about lock systems must be strictly observed. We as manufacturer will not accept liability for non-observance of this information.

Product liability and intended use

The function of a lock is to keep a door shut and to lock it. ‚Keeping shut‘ means preventing a door from being opened by pulling or pushing while also allowing it to be easily opened, by operating a lever handle for example. ‚Locking‘ means securing a door once it has been pulled shut using an unsprung rigid bolt which is pushed out of the door lock into the recesses provided in the keeper. The latch is designed to keep the door shut. The deadbolt is designed to keep the door locked.

The lock must be designed in such a way that the deadbolt can be blocked in the final position, and also that the door cannot be opened without a suitable (un)locking mechanism. The deadbolt is displaced by the drive-gear. The locking mechanism (blocking device with anchor) holds the lock in a specific position. A door may only be locked if it is already closed (also applies for hook latches and radius bolts). The SECURY 19, SECURY 21, and GU-SECURY Automatic Panic multi-point locks are designed for vertically installed doors. Their main area of application is building entrance doors in both private and public buildings. Compliance with the manufacturer‘s specifications, in particular the instructions in the supplied installation and operating instructions, are a part of the intended use. This is the only way to avoid damage. Changes made to the multi-point lock without the approval of GU exclude the manufacturer‘s liability for resulting damages. The length of the cylinder fixing screws must be selected to match the backset dimension of the lock or cropped to the appropriate length. A mortise lock or multi-point lock is a lock that is inserted and screwed into an existing recess (lock recess) in the door leaf, normally in a swing door system. Use as intended can only be ensured if locks are combined with approved door hardware, locking mechanisms (e.g. keys, cylinders), and accessories (e.g. striker/L&D striker), and if installation and maintenance is performed in compliance with the instructions and applicable (DIN) regulations. Locks for doors with special functions must comply with the applicable regulations and, if required, be marked accordingly. In the case of panic locks or multi-point locks in escape and rescue routes, the handle must not be operated whilst locking or unlocking. When used as panic exit devices, these locks are designed for infrequent operation and only in emergencies. Normal deliberate locking (i.e. single or double turn via key operation) or unlocking must not be replaced by continuous operation of the emergency function. The self-locking locks for series 19 and 21 and series 19/21 are the exception to this. Locking cylinders may only be installed in locks without reservation if they comply with a dimensional standard (e.g. DIN 18252), and if the locks are explicitly designed for cylinders to this standard. In all other cases, manufacturers, dealers, fabricators or consumers of such locks must ensure that the chosen cylinders are suitable for installation and the intended use. Any cylinder type (including knob cylinder) must not influence the correct function of the exit device in the escape direction. The operator must ensure the lock functions as intended. When checking knob cylinders, the only criterion they must satisfy is that they do not impede the correct locking function in the escape direction. Mandatory legal regulations must be observed. For example, only cylinders with the knob, turn or similar handles may be installed in panic locks under certificate No. 0432-CPR-00029-01. All general terms and definitions, unless explained in our catalogues or pictures, can be found in the DIN 18250, DIN 18251-1, DIN 18251-2, DIN 18251-3, DIN 18252 standards for door locks, and in the standards for hardware. Deviations from the standard must be specified in the order.

Misuse

Exit devices are being used incorrectly, i.e., not for their intended use, if, for example:

• Problem-free use is prevented by inserting foreign and/or unintended objects into the exit device or into the striker.
• The exit device is manipulated in a such way as to involve structural or functional changes or in any other way not expressly permitted in the assembly instructions.
• Contrary to its intended use, the ejected latchbolt or deadbolt is used to keep the door open.
• Exit device elements cannot function properly as a result of improper installation or subsequent treatment, such as painting.
• Unintended loads beyond normal manual force are applied to the handle, e.g., lifting and carrying the door by the handle, ramming or kicking the handle.
• Inappropriate locking mechanisms are used, e.g. wrongly dimensioned or incorrectly adjusted closers.
• The specified clearance increases or decreases as a result of hinge readjustments or lowering of the door leaf.
• A double-leaf door is opened by the passive leaf although not designed and approved for this.
• A double-leaf door not equipped with a carrier bar is opened via the passive leaf and is restrained as a result.
• The function of the door-leaf coordinator in a double-leaf door is bypassed.
• Objects or extremities are put between the door leaf and frame when the door closes.
• The lever handle and cylinder are operated simultaneously.

Product maintenance

Locking systems should be checked at least four times a year to ensure fitness for use. The exit device must be checked to ensure that it is in proper working order. Perform the following routine maintenance checks and document them accordingly:

• Inspect and actuate the panic exit device and make sure that all parts of the exit device are in perfect operating condition.
• Make sure that the keepers are not jammed or filled with dirt.
• Make sure that no additional locking devices have been fitted to the door at a later point in time.
• Verify that all system components still correspond to the list of approved components originally supplied with the system. Have the system serviced to its proper condition at regular intervals.
• Make sure the fixing materials are properly tightened and retightened according to regulations if required.
• Lubricate all moving parts, locking points, and the rear of the central and additional latch bolts with a non-resiniferous grease (e.g. LUMO Special Grease 8559/1 of Zeller+Gmelin).

We recommend an additional monthly functional check of the panic exit device. Only cleaning and care agents that do not affect the corrosion protection of the hardware parts may fundamentally be used.
