Mechanical Digital Locks
5 of 11
The knob handle of my standard code change digital keypad has got too much movement within it
before having even entered the correct code, is it faulty.
There is a tiny amount of free movement in the knob handle (a couple of degrees of rotation) as
standard in these units but not enough to compromise the security of it.
Did you change the code of the unit? If yes did you keep the ‘C’ button pressed when changing
the tumblers? If no, then this has resulted in the above taking place as the ledger sustains
damage when the ‘C’ is not kept in the pressed position during the code change process.
The inside pad handle will only turn in one direction and causes injury to the hand, is there anyway
of changing the pad handle to turn in the opposite direction.
The inside of the digital lock will have a blue screw inserted into the
back plate. The screw needs to be into the other hole to change the
rotational direction of the pad handle.
Can I remove the hold back facility?
Yes, there should be a black blanking plate supplied with the
product that can be used to cover the opening that will be created
once the snib of the hold back facility is removed. If there is not a
blanking plate with the product then contact the office and
arrangements can be made to supply one.
Looking at the reverse of the internal turn, remove the 4 screws
securing the plate, where the spindle locates. Once you remove
the plate push the snib back into the body of the internal turn, you
will notice the mechanism behind the holdback facility lift. Remove
the mechanism and position the blanking window in the opening
created. Re-secure plate using the screws.
