Three different types of locking mechanisms:
1) Lever/Pad Operation
(usually front door)- When closed the door is
locked on the latch and cannot be opened from
the outside without a key. To double lock the
door, lift up the handle to engage the
locking points and then turn the key once to
lock. To unlock, if the door has been
double-locked, turn the key once, push handle
down, turn key furthur to unlock latch.
2) Lever/Lever Operation
(usually back door) - Lift the handle to
engage the locking points and then turn the
key once to lock. To unlock turn the key
once, and push down the handle.
3) Key Wind Operation (front
or back door) - Turn the key 2 or more times
to fully engage all of the locking points. To
unlock turn the key 2 or more times to
release the locking points.
Always Double-lock your uPVC
door
uPVC doors that have just been pulled shut on
the latch are not secure.
