Lock installer checklist

Unidentified · 11 checks. Use the installed lock’s electrical rating and wiring diagram.

Lock / location: __________________________   Technician / date: _______________________
Model / AC/DC rating: ____________________   Diagram: _________________________________
Panel / lock terminals: ___________________   Paired interlock opening: ______________________

NT = Not tested · P = Pass · F = Fail · NA = Not applicable. Disconnected interlock controls remain NT.

Mechanical

Mounting & strike alignment

Check case fasteners, hinges, strike/keeper or gate tongue, clearance, and binding against the fitted lock's requirements.

Reading / fault / repair: ___________________________________________________
□ NT   □ P
□ F   □ NA
Bolt, latch & deadlock

Check full travel, return, engagement, deadlocking, springs, and linkage. Remove debris and use the specified lubricant where required.

Key mechanism & cylinder retention

Identify the keying mechanism. Check each keyed side, manual release, retention, and drive or cam engagement.

Wiring

Cabinet-to-lock wire identification

Trace and label conductors at both ends against the correct diagram. Record cabinet terminals and the lock connector.

Wiring continuity & terminations

With the circuit isolated, check opens/shorts as applicable, damaged insulation, terminals, connectors, strain relief, and protective grounding.

Switches

Switch mounts, arms & plungers

Inspect each fitted switch for secure mounting, damaged arms/plungers, correct travel, and positive return.

Switch contacts & actual function

For each switch, record terminal markings and rest/actuated continuity readings. Confirm its function from the diagram and operation. A click alone is not a contact test.

Functional testing

Supply & command relay output

Confirm the installed AC/DC rating. Check command relay operation and record voltage at the panel and lock under load; current if measured. Confirm tester capacity and isolate controls before applying test power.

Controls & interlocks

Door position & bolt feedback

Compare OPEN/CLOSED door position and bolt/deadlock feedback separately with the actual mechanism and cabinet indications. A bolt signal alone does not prove the door is closed.

Reading / fault / repair: ___________________________________________________
□ NT   □ P
□ F   □ NA
Paired-door interlock

Record the paired opening and intended sequence. Test permitted and blocked release conditions in both directions. Disconnected controls mean Not tested; use N/A only when no interlock is fitted.

Reading / fault / repair: ___________________________________________________
□ NT   □ P
□ F   □ NA

Final operation

Repeated cycles after repair

After restoring wiring and covers, record cycle count, manual/electrical release and relock results, correct feedback, and any intermittent fault.
