Slam Latch tting instructions

4. Cut pan head bolt for upper fixing hole and countersunk bolt for
lower fixing hole. Length of bolts should be the thickness of the
door plus 10mm (3/8”), or 1 to 2 break off sections. Cut the bolts
at one of the cutting points to avoid damaging the thread. Use

pliers cutting jaws to crimp around the cutting point several
times. The surplus should now easily break off.

5. Choose the spindle to suit your door thickness. For doors 3mm
(1/8”) to 18mm (3/4”), use the shorter 30mm (11/8”) spindle, for
doors 18mm (3/4”) to 28mm (11/16”) use the longer 40mm (1½”)
spindle. Screw the spindle with the 9mm (3/8”) end into the
socket in the KitLock using the countersunk fixing bolt (6).
Cut one section off the bolt if using a shorter spindle.

Special Notes

Before installation familiarise yourself with the operation
and programming of the KitLock being fitted to the
Slam Latch and check the Slam Latch box contents.

1. Remove the mounting plate (1) from the Slam Latch (3) by
removing the 4 fixing bolts (10).

2. Using the mounting plate as a template for the latch position,
place on the inside face of the door as dictated by the door frame
surrounding. Mark spindle hole and top and bottom fixing holes.
Please note there are two positions for the lower fixing hole; the
upper being used for the KL1500 and the lower for the KL1200.
When choosing the position of your Slam Latch, take into account
any rebate or frame that the door closes against. The Slam Latch
should be positioned between 2mm (5/64”) and 4mm (5/32”) back
from the edge of the door or rebate, or any striking plate mounted
to the door frame or rebate.

3. Drill the 13mm (½”) spindle fixing hole and the two 6mm (¼”) holes.
