E-PLEX 5x10 Exit Trim Model
The E-Plex Exit Trim Lock is adapt-
able to a wide variety of the more
popular exit devices on the market
today. No tools are required to
reverse handing, and the spring
loaded tailpiece drive automatical-
ly adjusts to door thicknesses
from 1 3⁄4" to 2 1⁄8". A door thick-
ness of up to 2 1⁄4" inches can be
accommodated through the addi-
tion of a spacer ring. The E-Plex
Exit Trim accommodates through
bolt mounting as used in most fire
rated installations as well as sur-
face mounted applications and is
retrofittable to existing installa-
tions. Before beginning installa-
tion, please read and understand
all of the following instructions as
well as the respective exit device
manufacturer’s instructions.

TOOLS REQUIRED
• Safety glasses
• Electric drill (variable speed)
• Awl or center punch
• 21⁄8" (54 mm) hole saw pilot drill
•3⁄8" (25 mm) hole saw pilot drill
• Hammer
• Phillips head screwdriver
• Small flat blade screwdriver
OPERATIONAL NOTE:
The E-Plex Exit Trim lock is almost identical to the E-Plex 5000 Cylindrical
lock with the following exceptions:
1. Operation of the Lever When the lock’s handing is properly set, only a
downward rotation of lever will actuate latch.
2. ey Override Use The key override differs in that rotating the key does
not actuate the latch. To use the key override the key must be inserted
into the cylinder and rotated counter clockwise till it stops (approximately
90 degrees) then while holding the key in this position with one hand use
the other hand to rotate the lever downward to retract the latch. Once the
lever has rotated a few degrees the key may be released.

A. DOOR PREPARATION - EXIT DEVICE
A-1 For New Installations (Existing Installations proceed to Step A-2): For
new installations, all mounting hardware for the actual exit device should
be acquired from the exit device supplier. All necessary hardware to
mount the E-Plex exit trim is included in the box. The rim style exit device
determines the location of the Vertical and Horizontal Centerlines. Follow
the exit device manufacturer’s directions for locating these reference
lines. Draw the lines on the door such that they can be used as a refer-
ence for aligning the supplied E-Plex Exit Trim paper template in Section
B. (IMPORTANT: Before making any holes in the door make sure that
the Vertical Centerline is at least 2 1⁄4" from the edge of the door.
The E-Plex Exit Trim should not be used if the installation requires a
backset less than 2 1⁄4". Also, if the door is a panel type make sure
that the stile is wide enough to accommodate the E-Plex Outside
Trim Plate. The outline of the Outside Trim Plate is shown on the
paper template and may be overlaid on the centerlines for this
purpose.) If the vertical centerline and stile width are compatible with
the E-Plex Exit Trim lock, complete the exit device manufacturer’s door
preparation instructions including locating and mounting the strike and
drilling the exit device mounting holes. Do not mount the exit device until
completing Section B of this manual.
A-2 For Existing Installations (New Installations proceed to Section B): It is
important that you understand how the exit device is supposed to mount
to the door to ensure that after removing the existing installation, any
hardware necessary to mount the exit device back on the door, such as
sex bolts, is on hand prior to beginning installation. All necessary hard-
ware to mount the E-Plex exit trim is included in the box. Remove the
existing exit device and outside trim. Care must be taken to ensure that
the Vertical and Horizontal Center Lines are located as accurately as
possible from the existing door preparation. Locate and draw these lines
on the door such that they can be used as a reference for aligning the
E-Plex Exit Trim paper template in Section B. (IMPORTANT: Before
making any holes in the door make sure that the Vertical Centerline
is at least 2 1⁄4" from the edge of the door. The E-Plex Exit Trim
should not be used if the installation requires a backset less than
21⁄4". Also, if the door is a panel type make sure that the stile is wide
enough to accommodate the E-Plex Exit Trim Outside Trim Plate. The
outline of the Outside Trim Plate is shown on the paper template and
may be overlaid on the centerlines for this purpose.) If the vertical
centerline and stile width are compatible with the E-Plex Exit Trim, pro-
ceed to Section B of this manual.

6
B. DOOR PREPARATION – E-PLEX EXIT TRIM
B-1 For New Installations (Existing Installations proceed
to Step B-2): Place paper template (e) (supplied) onto
the inside of the door and align with the Centerlines.
Mark the location of the E-Plex Exit Trim mounting
holes. Drill the four 3⁄8" (10 mm) (b) holes through the
door, then use a hole saw to cut the 2 1⁄8" (54 mm) (c)
bore through the door at the intersection of the
Vertical (a) and Horizontal (d)Centerlines. Care should
be taken to drill holes perpendicular to the door face.
Make sure any burrs are removed from the hole
edges, and that all chips are cleaned out of the holes
prior to installing hardware.
B-2 For Existing Installations (New Installations proceed to Section C):
Doors that have an existing exit device installed might already have a
through bore at the intersection of the Vertical and Horizontal
Centerlines, if the existing hole is smaller than 2 1⁄8" (54 mm) in diameter
it will need to be enlarged. Extra care should be used to ensure that the
location of this hole is kept as accurate as possible in relation to the exist-
ing mounting pattern. Place paper template (supplied) onto the inside of
the door aligned with the reference lines and mark the location of the E-
Plex Exit Trim mounting holes. Drill the four 3⁄8" ( 10 mm) holes through
the door, then use a hole saw to cut the 2 1⁄8" bore through the door at
the intersection of the Vertical and Horizontal Centerlines. Care should be
taken to drill holes perpendicular to the door face. Make sure any burrs
are removed from the hole edges, and that all chips are cleaned out of
the holes prior to installing hardware.
C. INSTALL EXIT DEVICE:
Follow the exit device manufacturer’s instructions for installing the exit
device onto the door.

D. DOOR THIC NESS
The E-Plex Exit Trim Drive Unit (a) has a spring
loaded tailpiece (b) and is preassembled to accom-
modate standard door thickness from 1 3⁄4" to
approximately 2 1⁄8" for most applications. For
Doors up to 2 1⁄4" inches it may be necessary to
add a spacer to increase the projection of the tail-
piece. If this is required, first remove and discard
the two connecting screws (c) from the Drive Unit
(a). Add spacer (d), and remount using the two longer 1 5⁄8" (41 mm)
connecting screws supplied in the thick door accessory package.
E. ASSEMBLE OUTSIDE UNIT TO
UNIVERSAL MOUNTING PLATE
Assemble the Universal Mounting Plate (a) to the
Outside Unit Assembly (b) using the four 10-24 x 3⁄4"
long screws (c) supplied in the accessory kit.
F. LOC HANDING
F-1 Determine the handing of your door, from the following diagram.
F-2 To set the handing of the drive unit grasp
the end of the tailpiece (a) with your fingers
and rotate the tail piece until it stops with
the indicator arrow (b) pointing at the
stamped letter “LHR” for left hand reverse
installations, or the stamped letter “RHR”
for right hand reverse installations.
Note: Until engaged with the exit device, the Tailpiece (a) is free to swivel 180
degrees to facilitate handing of the lock. During shipping and preparation the
position of the tailpiece may shift. The last step before mounting the lock unit
is to make sure the Drive Unit is set up for proper rotation.

briefly hear the sound of an electric motor.
L-3 Rotate the outside lever downward and hold. Ensure that the latch is
retracted sufficiently to clear the strike. Release the Outside Lever; the
latch should be fully extended.
L-4 Allow a few seconds for the lock to re-lock (sound of motor is heard), and
then rotate the Outside Lever. The latch should not retract.
L-5 Insert one of the supplied keys into the outside lever. Rotate key counter
clockwise till it stops (approximately 90 degrees) then while holding the
key in this position with one hand, then use the other hand to rotate the
lever downward till it stops and hold (once the lever has rotated a few
degrees the key may be released). Ensure that the latch has retracted suf-
ficiently to clear the strike. Release the lever once more and ensure that
the latch is fully extended.

M. RESET FUNCTION
Warning: When the lock is reset, all existing authorization and access codes
are deleted, and the lock is configured to the factory default lock settings.
The master code becomes 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8.
If the Master Code is lost or forgotten and the number has not been
recorded, the lock can be reset to the factory defaults by following this
procedure:
1) Insert key and turn to “open” position and hold.
2) Within five seconds, push “#” button on lock and then release the key.
3) Red and green lights should begin flashing.
4) Input 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-# at lock within 10 seconds.
5) You should hear sound of lock resetting and a high pitch tone.
6) Green light flashes. Lock is reset to factory mode.
Note: For security reasons, all existing audit events are not deleted.
The lock is now set to the factory-configured setup with the default facto-
ry master code, 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8. Important: Before you can program the
lock you must first enter a new 8 digit master code of your choice.
For example, if your new code is 1,3,5,7,2,4,6,8, the correct buttons to
press in the exact order are:
#1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,#,0,0,0,#,1,3,5,7,2,4,6,8,#,1,3,5,7,2,4,6,8,#,#
To determine if you have successfully changed your master code, enter
1,3,5,7,2,4,6,8, and the lock should open. Now try the factory master
code, 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8, and the lock should not open.
