Motorized Electric Latch Retraction (MELR) Installation Instructions

3. Install Lockbody

Important: Door must remain open during installation. Use door stop.

Connect lock harness with ElectroLynx® cable routed through door. Insert lockbody in door. Ensure the bevel of the latchbolt faces the strike plate. Attach with two #12 x 1" combination screws. Leave attaching screws loose until the end when all will be tightened securely.

4. Install Trim

A. Install Cylinder (If applicable)

• 1. Insert cylinder through the cylinder collar, door and into lock.
• 2. Securely hand tighten cylinder set screw through the edge of the lock case.

NOTE: Do not use powered screw drivers to tighten cylinder set screw.

B. Rose Trim

• 1. Insert outside rose assemby (w/posts) through the door and into lock.
• 2. Align and fasten inside mounting plate with two #8-32 x 1" screws to posts.
• 3. Tighten screw securely.
• 4. Align and press rose posts to plastic bushings on mounting plate.
• 5. Go to Step 5.

C. Square Rose Trim

1. Install cylinder with square collar and square rose trim, same as 4A and 4B.

The square rose and mounting plate needs to be oriented correctly during installation. Failure to do so causes roses that are crooked on the door, forcing the installer to remove and reinstall the parts. The proper orientation for the plastic rose-mounting inserts points in the upward direction. The rose is oriented with the slot facing the hinge side of the door.

Slot in trim must face towards the hinge side of door. Correct orientation shown.
