INSTALLATION
-
Install the door position sensor (part G) in the door edge.
Note:
The Arrow on Door sensor should point upwards. The door position sensor is optional but recommended for full lock functionality and feature support.
-
Hold the Front assembly (part H) with keypad flush to your door and align cable with door hole prep.
-
Using the ML2 Alignment Tool (Part J), position the mounting plate by first routing the cables and connectors through the mounting plate’s cable hole.
The alignment tool inserts through the mounting plate and into the thumb turn hole of the mortise lock.
-
Secure both assemblies using installation bolts (part D). Make sure the front assembly and back mounting plate are aligned and square. Tighten screws securely with a #2 Phlips screwdriver. *Do not overtighten.
Note: Check for smooth and correct lock operation by exercising the alignment tool before proceeding further.
Note: Please use the 3/8″ Wood Screws for wood door or 3/8″ self-drilling screws for metal door applications. -
Attach cables to the back assembly.
Note: Door Position Sensor installation is optional but recommended for full lock functionality and feature support.
-
Remove back battery cover(remove top screw and gently pull from lower sides of the cover) and secure back assembly using 1 /4″ mounting screws (part I) onto the mounting plate.
Note: When installing the back assembly, the mechanical lock should be in the unlocked position, and the ML2 thumb turn should be vertical with the indicator dot pointing towards the unlocked symbol(12 o-clock)
-
Hand the lock by changing position of handing switch on back assembly according to your door opening direction.
Note: To reset handing, remove the battery pack, adjust the handing switch, then reinstall the battery pack.
-
Install rechargeable battery pack then install battery cover.
-
Install door sensor magnet on door frame with the arrow pointing upwards.
-
Final mechanical and fitment check:
It is important to ensure the fitment and mechanical operation of the lock is working correctly- With the door in the open position manually exercise the thumb turn, levers and cylinder (if applicable) and ensure all are moving smoothly (without binding, grinding or resistance) and are correctly actuating the lock in each case (levers retracting the latch, cylinder and thumb turn locking and unlocking correctly, etc.).
- Ensure the door closes and opens smoothly. Shimming or adjusting the door or any components (weather-stripping, door closing mechanisms, etc.) that may be impeding proper door motion and operation is critical to the longevity and proper functionality of all door and hardware components.
- Ensure the door closes, latches and locks smoothly and properly. Perform the same manual operational checks as in step (a). The lock should feel and function the same in both the open and closed positions.
- Once confirming your successful installation, please review the ML2 Programming Instructions to complete the lock setup process.
