Fitting


Using the template provided, mark and drill holes for the cable and the two screws.
Enlarge the upper part of the cable hole as shown in the diagram below:

• Tap in the wall plugs and screw the top No.8 x

1” posi pan to the wall. Leave the head of the
screw about 2mm from the face of the wall.

• Thread the cable through the wall.

• Locate the screw into its keyhole on the back of

the keypad and slide the keypad down to
engage. Remove and adjust as necessary.

• Tighten down with the bottom No.8 x 1” screw.





Which release?

The TOUCHLOCK compact can be used with 12V DC fail open or fail closed releases. Ensure that the
release consumes no more than 500mA for continuous use from 12V, or 750mA for intermittent use (7 secs).
Please refer to manufacturer’s instructions for detail on specific releases.

The TOUCHLOCK compact keypad uses a small residual current to detect the presence of an electric release,
used for the data reset procedure. For this reason TOUCHLOCK compact must not be connected directly to a
relay coil.

Fitting the electric release

• Decide on a suitable position for the electric release on the door frame.

• Remove the cover of the release.
• Using the 3.5mm cable clips provided, tack the white cable from the TOUCHLOCK to the release and

connect the two wires to the terminals on the release. Polarity does not matter when using a standard
12V DC release.

• Replace the cover of the release.

• If using the rim fitting, do not refit the side plate, this is not used.
• Screw the release to the door frame using the No.8 x 1” screws

provided.
