Installation
TO CLOSE DOORS:
Close the left-hand door, where applicable, and secure it with the
latch by rotating the latch downward over the stop on the outer edge of the door . See
Figure 3 . The right-hand door of double-door models of pad-mounted gear is equipped with
the Penta-Latch Mechanism which latches automatically when the door is closed . To close
a door equipped with the Penta-Latch Mechanism, place one hand at the midpoint of the
door-front near the edge and firmly push the door closed . See Figure 2 on page 6 . When
the latch points are positively engaged, the spring mechanism will trip to latch the door .
Pull outward on the cover of the Penta-Latch Mechanism to verify that the door has
latched securely . If it has not, use a pentahead (or hexhead, when applicable) socket
wrench or tool to rotate the actuator counterclockwise until a distinct “click” is heard
and the actuator reaches its stop . If the actuator will not rotate counterclockwise, the
mechanism was already charged for closing but was not closed properly . Close the door
again, making sure that all latch points engage completely and simultaneously . Once the
door is securely latched, a padlock may be inserted into the hasp .
Rotating latch secures left-hand-door of
double-door models closed.
Rotate latch upward to disengage left-hand
door as shown above. To secure left-hand
door closed, rotate latch downward over stop
on outer edge of door.
