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.
4
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.
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.

Loosely secure the actuator in

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.
