2.3 General Door Set up
Centre lines:
Sash to frame relationship of Lock to Centre Latch and hook keeps.
Please refer to drawings 6.1, 6.2 and 6.3 on pages 12 - 14
(Ensure that the datum line of the lock (located underneath the latch bolt) corresponds with the
bottom edge of the latch bolt strike.)
Air Gap:
• On square edge doors:
Ensure that the gap between sash and frame, specifically on the Lock stile side, is parallel 4mm
optimum, (with a tolerance of + 0, to – 1mm), and that the head also has a parallel air gap.
Please see diagram above.
• On rebated doors:
Open the door sash slightly so as to visually check that the clearance in between the sash and
the edge of the outer frame/hook latch strike is 4mm optimum, (with a tolerance of + 0, to –
1mm).
Also, by drawing pencil lines around each of the corners of the leaf and adjacent to the locking
points, ensure that the cover is consistent and within tolerance (check this dimension with the
door supplier/manufacturer).
Cover:
The amount by which the outer frame is over lapped by the door leaf and should be consistent
all round the leaf, specifically on the lock stile side.
2.4 Installation checks and Adjustments:
The latch keep, should be adjusted so that when the sash is firmly closed against the weather
seal and latched, the hooks fall and throw fully.
The hook keep, should be adjusted so that when latched, the hooks are not quite touching the
compression face of the hook adjuster plates. This can be checked by firstly ensuring that the
hooks are fully thrown, and in fresh air, and then trying to force the sash open at both the hook
positions.
If correctly adjusted the sash should not be able to be deflected in such a way, so as to not have
contact with the weather seal.
Measure air gap
from this position.
Use glass packer
