DESCRIPTION 

 

These instructions detail the hardware installation procedure for the ArchiTech 

mortise door locks 

using the 

Surface-

Mounted Networx Control Units

 for hollow metal and solid wood doors.   

 

Installation instructions for the 

Door Contact Sensor

Door Contact Magnet

 (installed in the door jamb) and the 

Oval 

and 

Rectangular Proximity Readers 

are also included.   

 
 

PARTS OVERVIEW 

 

For reference, the images in Fig. A below display each component (not to scale).  In addition to the various screws 
included with your mortise lock, please be aware that two types of 

Proximity Readers 

are available (either 

Oval

 or 

Rectangular

) but only one type is included with your lock.  Furthermore, one of two types of 

Door Contact 

Magnets

 (installed in door jamb) are included (either 3/8"  or 3/4"  diameter).  We recommend taking the time to 

read through these instructions, find and familiarize yourself with each component before you begin your installation.   

 
 

As detailed in the instructions that follow, the 

Proximity Reader

 wires, the 

Door Contact Sensor

 wires and the 

Mortise 

Lock Motor Wire 

are routed through the door and are plugged into the 

Surface-Mounted Networx Control 

Unit

.  The 

Mortise Lock Motor Wire

 can easily be routed within hollow metal doors.  For solid wood doors, a 

Mortise Drill Jig

 (part #

N95I1DJ

must

 be used to drill a hole pathway within the solid wood door to route the 

Mortise Lock Motor Wire

.   

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

REQUIRED TOOLS  

 

In addition to the standard door prep kit tools used to install a mortise lock into a metal or wood door (Phillips and flat 
head screwdrivers, etc.), you will need:  A small 

level

, and the following drill bit sizes:  

5/8"

3/8"

3/4"

 and 

7/64"

.   

 
 
 
 

IMPORTANT:

  For installation on UL Listed Wood Fire Doors fill the through hole wire passage with UL Clas-

sified Fire Stop Sealant after connecting all wiring and testing the Lock.
