Installing A Door; Reversing The Door Swing - Black Box 525068 User Manual

5.2 Installing a Door

Pull down on the top hinge-pin handle (Figure 6, on the previous page) while inserting the bottom hinge pin
into the lower hinge receptacle. Align the top hinge pin with the top hinge receptacle and release the spring-
loaded pin handle. Make sure that both pins are fully engaged into the hinge receptacles while the door is being supported by
another person. The safety bracket should now be installed using the two 10-32 lock nuts furnished.

5.3 Reversing the Door Swing

1. If the doors require reverse hinging, remove both doors following the instructions in Section 5.1.
2. With the door removed from the cabinet, remove the bottom hinge safety plate following the same steps
used to remove the top safety plate.
3. Now reinstall the top safety plate (it will be the bottom when the door is reversed).
4. Relocate the bottom hinge spacer (Figure 7) on the front and rear door frame to the opposite side of the
cabinet by removing two Phillips 6-32 flat-head screws, aligning the spacer over holes on the opposite side of
the frame (countersinks facing up) and attaching with screws.
5. The latch catch on both door frames can now be relocated to the opposite side of the door opening by
removing one Phillips 6-32 flat-head screw from the center of the catch, pulling the catch out through the
frame slot, and reinstalling it on the opposite side (Figure 8, on the next page).
6. The door can now be turned upside down and mounted with the hinges on the opposite side using the
instructions in Section 5.2.
After both doors have been reversed, you may want to switch the door latch from the front door to the rear
door as the latch will be upside down in the reversed position. This step is optional since the latch will function
properly in either position. To switch front and rear latches, remove one slotted locking screw on the back side
of each latch assembly, releasing the latch retainer (see Figure 4). The latch will now push out through the
opening in the door. Insert latch into the opening of the opposite door with the latch pawl facing away from
the hinge side of the door. Replace the latch retainer.
