Product Overview
The Codelocks CL155 Mortice Latch Mechanical Lock is a light-duty, keyless entry solution designed for various commercial and residential applications. It operates without batteries or external power, relying on a mechanical pushbutton code for access. The latch retracts by turning the inside lever freely or the outside knob after a correct code input. This model includes a hold-open function, which can be enabled or disabled during installation, allowing for free entry without a code when desired.

Maintenance
The Codelocks CL155 is designed for durability and requires minimal maintenance. Regular cleaning and occasional checks can help ensure its longevity and proper function.

- Inspection: Periodically check all visible components for signs of wear or damage. Ensure all screws are tight.
- Neoprene Seals: The included neoprene seals help protect internal mechanisms from environmental elements. Ensure they are properly seated and undamaged.
- Lubrication: Mechanical locks generally benefit from occasional lubrication of internal moving parts with a graphite-based lubricant or a light silicone spray. Consult a locksmith if you are unsure about proper lubrication techniques.
