Cavity Sliders CAVILOCK CL400 ADA Magnetic Bi-Parting Installation Instructions Manual

Installation Instructions
for CL400 ADA Magnetic
Bi-Parting Passage
(Magnetic Latching)
Handles

Before you Start:

1. These handles have been manufactured to specifications which cannot be altered by the installer.

These include:

a Handle type: the CL400 ADA handle is available in Passage, Privacy and Bi-Parting versions.

You have purchased the Bi-Parting Passage (Magnetic Latching) version.

b Configuration: the Passage handle configurations include; Passage Magnetic Latching and

Passage Non Latching.

c Door thickness range: There are four different door thickness ranges: 34-40mm, 40-46mm,

46-52mm and 52-58mm (1-3/8” to 1-9/16”, 1-5/8” to 1-3/4”, 1-13/16” to 2” and 2-1/16” to 2-1/4”).

Handles for thicker doors are available on request.

Refer to the information printed on the Side Handle and Chassis boxes to ensure you have

purchased the handles with the correct specifications for your situation. If the specifications are

incorrect you will need to exchange the handles.

2. Component drawings have been provided. Please familiarise yourself with the components and check

the package to ensure nothing is missing.

3. To ensure the handles latch accurately, it is essential that both doors are adjusted for height and are

parallel with each other when closed before installing the handles.

4. The CL400 is a metric handle. Accurate measurements are shown in millimetres. Conversions to

inches are approximate.

5. NZS4121:2001: To comply with NZS4121:2001 the centre of the handles should be positioned between

900mm and 1200mm (1000mm optimal) above finished floor level. There must be a minimum clear
walk through of 760mm (Aust. 850mm). There must be a 45mm clear space from edge of pull handle
to door jamb when the doors are fully open. Consult local standards for guidelines relating to the
specific project.

USA ADA (American Disabilities Act) Guidelines: Handle should be positioned between 34 - 48”

above finished floor level. Allow a minimum of four inches for the protrusion of the door in the
open position. This can be achieved by using track stops or blocking in the back of the pocket.
Consult local standards for guidelines relating to the specific project.

WARNING: THE BI-PARTING CHASSIS CONTAINS A STRONG MAGNET

IRON FILINGS - Magnets will attract shavings from iron or ferrous metals which may be hard to

remove. Keep magnets a safe distance away from these materials.

DANGER FOR CHILDREN - Magnets may cause serious injury if swallowed. Keep out of reach of children.
CRUSHING, BLISTERS AND CUTS - Fingers may become caught between magnets resulting in crushing,

blisters or cuts.
BREAKING OR CHIPPING - It is possible that magnets could chip or shatter on contact with other hard
materials, resulting in chips flying off at high speed into someone’s eye. Chips can also be very sharp - treat
them as you would broken glass.
MAGNETICALLY SENSITIVE ITEMS - Keep a safe distance between the magnet and all objects that can
be damaged by magnetism (e.g. mechanical watches, pacemakers, cell phones etc.).
DISPOSAL - Magnets should be disposed of carefully and in accordance with your local regulations.
