FAQs

What is included in the kit?

The kit includes 1 x Mortice Rack Bolt, 1 key escutcheon, 1 face plate, one oval turn knob, and fixing screws.

What materials are used in the construction?

The rack bolt and oval turn knob are made from solid brass with an electro-plated finish. The key escutcheon, receiver, and face plate have a polished chrome finish.

Is the rack bolt suitable for external doors?

The product is designed for internal use. While the finish is designed to withstand internal weather conditions, it is not specifically designed for external exposure.

How long is the bolt?

The length of the bolt is approximately 55mm.

Is professional installation required?

While it can be installed by someone with basic DIY skills, professional installation is recommended if you are not comfortable with the process.

How do I operate the rack bolt?

Use the oval turn knob to extend or retract the bolt. Turning the knob engages or disengages the bolt from the door or window frame.

How do I clean the rack bolt?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the components. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Troubleshooting

Bolt doesn't extend or retract smoothly.

Check for obstructions in the frame or the bolt mechanism. Lubricate the mechanism with a small amount of lubricant.

Oval turn knob is difficult to turn.

Ensure the knob is properly aligned. Tighten or loosen the screws securing the knob if needed.

Bolt does not fully engage.

Check the alignment of the strike plate. Adjust the plate if necessary for a secure fit.
