ISSUE B MAY 2005 DPIN 045112
DOOR IS HEAVY TO OPEN:
Cause: Spring tension set too low
Solution: Re-set spring tension as detailed on the door maintenance label.
DOOR OPENS TOO QUICKLY:
Causes: Spring tension set too high.
Solution: Re-set spring tension as detailed on the door maintenance label.
DOOR DOES NOT DELATCH:
Cause: Latch cables may have been set too long.
Solution: If you are not locked out of the garage at the time, then the cables should be set to allow nominal
6mm latch engagement with the latch plates. If you are locked out of the garage, call your installer/supplier
for assistance.
DOOR HANDLE FAILS TO TURN:
Probable Cause: A jammed lock barrel.
Solution: Unfortunately this can only be remedied by a service call, however, this is not usually chargeable
during the warranty period. Please contact your supplier for details.
KEY FAILS TO TURN IN LOCK:
Probable Cause: Door handle has not been turned to the fully closed position.
Solution: Return the handle to the fully closed (horizontal) position and try again. If the problem still persists,
contact your supplier.
LOST KEYS:
Solution:
Contact your supplier. The lock barrel will need to be replaced, but the method for doing this will
vary. If you can get into your garage, the problem can be easily solved by removing the handle assembly
from the door and replacing the lock barrel with a new one. If you are locked out, contact your supplier.

DOOR OPENS TOO QUICKLY:
Causes: Spring tension set too high.
Solution: Re-set spring tension as detailed on the door maintenance label.
DOOR DOES NOT DELATCH:
Cause: Latch cables may have been set too long.
Solution: If you are not locked out of the garage at the time, then the cables should be set to allow nominal
6mm latch engagement with the latch plates. If you are locked out of the garage, call your installer/supplier
for assistance.
DOOR HANDLE FAILS TO TURN:
Probable Cause: A jammed lock barrel.
Solution: Unfortunately this can only be remedied by a service call, however, this is not usually chargeable
during the warranty period. Please contact your supplier for details.
KEY FAILS TO TURN IN LOCK:
Probable Cause: Door handle has not been turned to the fully closed position.
Solution: Return the handle to the fully closed (horizontal) position and try again. If the problem still persists,
contact your supplier.
LOST KEYS:
Solution:
Contact your supplier. The lock barrel will need to be replaced, but the method for doing this will
vary. If you can get into your garage, the problem can be easily solved by removing the handle assembly
from the door and replacing the lock barrel with a new one. If you are locked out, contact your supplier.
