Installation
STEP 2. Close the left-hand door, where applicable, and
secure it with the latch by rotating the latch
downward over the stop on the outer edge of the
door. See Figure 4.
(a) The right-hand door of double-door models
of pad-mounted gear is equipped with the
Penta-Latch Mechanism, which latches
automatically when the door is closed. To
close a door equipped with the Penta-Latch
Mechanism, place one hand at the midpoint
of the door-front near the edge and rmly
push the door closed. When the latch
points are positively engaged, the spring
mechanism will trip to latch the door.
(b) Pull outward on the cover of the Penta-Latch
Mechanism to verify the door has latched
securely. If it has not, use a pentahead (or
hexhead, when applicable) socket wrench or
tool to rotate the actuator counterclockwise
until a distinct “click” is heard and the
actuator reaches its stop.
(c) If the actuator will not rotate counter-
clockwise, the mechanism was already
charged for closing and was not closed
properly. Close the door again, making sure
that all latch points engage completely and
simultaneously.
When the door is securely latched, a
padlock may be inserted into the hasp.
Figure 4. Rotate the latch upward to disengage the left-hand
door, as shown above. To secure the left-hand door closed,
rotate the latch downward over the stop on the outer edge of
the door.
