MF - Use either Door Sensor OR Autolock (OR neither if Slam-to-Lock)

MF Lock – Door Sensor, Autolock, and Slam-to-Lock Explained

The MF lock can use either the Door Sensor or the Auto-lock feature to trigger locking; however, these two functions cannot be used simultaneously. If the door operates with a slam-to-lock mechanism, neither feature should be enabled.

Door Sensor (Supplied with MF)

  • Magnetic sensor (not Bluetooth)

  • Does not need to be added to the app

  • Works on left- or right-hand doors

Note: Please disregard the separate “Door Sensors” icon in the app, as this refers to a different type of Bluetooth door sensor and not the magnetic sensor supplied with the MF model.

Autolock

  • Automatically re-locks the door after closing

  • Cannot be used at the same time as the Door Sensor

If using the Door Sensor, ensure Autolock is set to OFF in Lock Settings.

Slam-to-Lock Doors

For doors with a slam-to-lock mechanism (e.g. Winkhaus AV series):

  • The door locks mechanically when closed

  • Do not enable Autolock

  • Do not use the MF Door Sensor

Using either feature on slam-to-lock doors will cause issues.

Key Rule

✔ Use Door Sensor OR Autolock
✔ Or use neither for slam-to-lock doors
❌ Never use Door Sensor and Autolock together
