By default, Sensor and Timer (60 seconds) Re-lock are enabled. This combination ensures that the Mortise will always lock after unlocking, regardless of whether the door has been opened or kept closed.
We recommend that both Re-lock are kept activated. To customise the behaviour of the Mortise, it is possible to disable one or both types of Re-lock.
See below for Mortise lock behaviour under different combinations of re-lock status:
Sensor Re-lock Enabled | Sensor Re-lock Disabled | |
Timer Re-lock Enabled | Mortise will lock upon door closure. Should the door be kept open after Timer is up, door will not lock until door is closed. Should door be kept closed after unlocking, door will auto-lock after Timer is up. | Mortise will lock when Timer is up, regardless of whether door is open or closed. |
Timer Re-lock Disabled | Mortise will lock upon door closure. Should door be kept closed after unlocking, door will not auto-lock. | Manual lock mode: Door will not re-lock automatically. |
