Variloc Incremental Locking Hinges can be activated using various methods, depending on the requirements of your application.
Activation Methods:
Push Button (PB) Models:
To activate, press the plastic push button, rotate the hinge to the desired setting, and release the
button to lock it in place.
Cable Release (CR) Models:
For remote activation, remove the center push cap, run a cable through the bolt hole, add a washer
on the push plate, and insert a cable stay. CR hinges can be activated individually or in series,
manually by push button, with a rod and snap lock, or with pneumatic activation.
Dual or Series Activation:
Adjustable Locking Hinges are often used in pairs with outward-facing push buttons for easy
access. By connecting both hinges with a steel rod or cable and using a cam lever on one side, both
hinges can be activated simultaneously with one hand.
Pneumatic of Solenoid Activation:
By mounting an attachment to either a PB or CR hinge, remote activation is possible.
