composite doors with a thickness of
44 – 70 mm.

Remove the fixing screws on the
internal handle, making a note
of which holes the screws went
through.
Please note: the door will need
to remain open until the full
installation is complete.
Remove the cylinder by taking out
the cylinder screw beneath the bolt
– you may need to insert and turn
your key to enable the cylinder to be
removed.
3
Measure the thickness of the door, and the
distance between the centre of the lock and the
inside of the door to determine which fixing pack
to use.
Select between the short or long tailbar from
the fixing pack using the measurement from the
centre of lock to the inside door, and push the
chosen tailbar into the actuator up to three clicks
depending on the door measurement.
4
Insert the actuator
into the door, ensuring
the cam is within the
housing. If the cam
isn’t in the housing,
use the end of the
tailbar to push down
the pin, which will
allow you to put the
cam into the housing.
5
Loosely secure the
actuator in place
using the screw
provided.

The Conexis L1 has
an adjustable design
meaning it can fit
doors with the fixing
point above and below
the lever handle.
Depending on the
fixing points on the
door, take the external
handle and screw the
lug into position.
