SAFETY & USE INFORMATION
Review the safety, use, inspection, and emergency-egress information below before installing or using GlideLok.
ADULT INSTALLATION AND OPERATION ONLY
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD
Contains small parts. Not a toy. Keep loose components and packaging away from children and pets.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
GlideLok is a child-safety door-locking device for compatible hinged residential doors and frames. Install and use only as instructed. Improper installation, misuse, unauthorized modification, forcing the door while locked, or use of damaged components may result in product failure, injury, entrapment, or property damage.
GlideLok is a supplementary safety measure and does not replace active adult supervision. No child-safety device can guarantee that a child or dependent individual will be unable to bypass or defeat it. GlideLok is not a security lock and does not replace conventional door locks or deadbolts.
SAFE INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
Install only on compatible, structurally sound doors and frames. After installation, verify that the door closes normally and that GlideLok fully engages and disengages from both sides. Responsible adults and caregivers must be able to reach and operate it promptly.
Do not slam, force, or attempt to open the door while GlideLok is engaged. If it binds, interferes with normal door operation, or does not fully engage or disengage, discontinue use until corrected.
SAFE HANDLING
Do not allow children or pets to play with, chew, mouth, or ingest any component. Do not cut, grind, sand, burn, melt, chemically treat, or otherwise alter components except as specifically instructed. If a component is swallowed or contact causes irritation or another adverse reaction, seek appropriate medical advice.
WARNING: EMERGENCY EGRESS AND ENTRAPMENT
GlideLok restricts operation of a door. Ensure that occupants can safely exit and responsible adults can promptly open the door in an emergency.
Before installing on an exterior, required-egress, fire-rated, self-closing, or self-latching door, verify that installation is permitted by applicable building and safety requirements and will not interfere with required door operation. Do not use GlideLok where it could prevent necessary emergency evacuation or access.
When used to limit access by a person unable to operate the device independently, a responsible adult or caregiver must remain able to promptly release the door.
POOL, SPA AND WATER SAFETY
When used on a door leading to a pool, spa, or other water hazard, GlideLok is only one layer of protection. It does not replace adult supervision or required fences, gates, alarms, self-closing/self-latching devices, covers, or other safety barriers.
INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
Inspect regularly and after unusual force or attempted forced opening. Check for loose hardware, wear, bending, deformation, cracking, corrosion, binding, or other damage. If any component is damaged or compromised, discontinue use immediately. A damaged GlideLok may restrict or prevent operation of the door.
USER RESPONSIBILITY AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
Because doors, occupants, and circumstances vary, the user is responsible for determining whether GlideLok is appropriate for the particular door, location, occupants, and intended use, and for proper installation, supervision, inspection, maintenance, and emergency planning.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the manufacturer, brand owner, distributor, and retailer are not responsible for injury, loss, or property damage resulting from improper installation; misuse; unauthorized modification; use on an unsuitable door or frame; failure to follow instructions or warnings; inadequate supervision or emergency planning; continued use of a damaged or compromised product; or use for an unintended purpose.
