3. Using a hammer, lightly tap both roll pins into the armature plate until they are secure.
4. Before installing the Hex Nut, the hole in the door may need to be drilled or tapped. Refer to
the previous page for this information. Using the components shown in the image to the right,
mount the armature to the door. Make sure that the armature plate is not overtightened and
that it is installed as shown in the following diagram. The armature plate must be free to self
align with the door.
5. Ensure the armature and magnet are aligned. Adjust the mounting plate to suit and then drill
the appropriate sized holes in the door header for the remaining attachment screws.
6. Close the door to test the holding force. The angle between the armature plate and
magnetic lock can be adjusted by adding or reducing washers.
