DOOR-GARD SELF-CONTAINED ACCESS CONTROL SYSTEMS 
232r and 232se Wiring Diagrams and Specifications. 
TECHNICAL NOTES 
•  To avoid ESD (Electro-Static Discharge) interfering with the operation of the 
keypad, ground the housing to earth ground. 
•  The bi-color LED provided with the 232se illuminates red when the Lock-
Release relay is de-energized and green when the relay is de-energized. 
•  When mounting this unit outside, apply silicone to the area where the wires 
enter the case. This helps prevent water from entering the case and condensing 
on the circuit board.  On the 232r, drill a 1/8” weep hole at the bottom of the 
housing to allow air to circulate and any moisture to drain. 
•  On the 232r, use the supplied sealing gasket to prevent water from entering the 
case. Do not silicone the cover plate because the unit will not seal properly.  
•  Do not seal the drain holes at the bottom of the keypad housing. This allows air 
to circulate and a place for condensation to drain. 
•  For use in extreme weather conditions, consult the factory for additional 
methods of protecting your keypad. 
•  To speed installation of the 232se, holes have been spotted on the inside the 
back housing for mounting to a wall or a single-gang electrical box. 
•  On 232se, holes have also been spotted inside the front housing for addition a l 
LEDs (LEDs not included ).
