AWCLOCK Architrave Antimicrobial Touch to Lock Toilet Sensor
£65.98 ex VAT
Touch to lock toilet sensor. Smart access control for accessible toilet systems
The Architrave Touch to Lock toilet sensor is a modern, contactless solution designed to meet the demanding requirements of DDA compliant (Disability Discrimination Act) accessible toilet systems. Ideal for new installations or refurbishments, this sensor allows users to securely lock and unlock the door via a simple touch or entirely hands free (up to 60mm detection range).
Key Benefits:
- Simple integration with standard DDA door locking systems
- Hands free functionality enhances hygiene and user confidence
- LED indicators clearly display lock status (red/blue) for instant feedback
- Robust, antimicrobial, scratch resistant acrylic label
- Prevents surface transmission of bacteria, viruses, and mould (effective against MRSA, E. coli, Legionella & more)
Tested for durability and designed to reduce user error and maintenance callouts, the sensor’s clear visual cues and intuitive operation reduce confusion in high traffic public facilities.
Ideal for healthcare environments, public buildings, transport hubs, shopping centres, and any site requiring compliant, user friendly accessible washroom solutions.
- Architrave internal touch sensor for disabled toilet system
- User touches switch to lock or unlock the door
- 12-28Vdc
- 4 position sensitivity adjustment (Touch to 60mm hands free)
- Entire label is sensitive
- Red & blue LED indicators to show engaged/vacant status
- Sounder on activation
- Reinforced nylon housing
- Scratch resistant antimicrobial acrylic label with Steritouch additive, kills 99.9% of germs!
- IP65 rated
▪ Internal Sensor Beeps when touched but doesn’t lock the system
Solution:
-
Link out the door switch terminals on the control board.
-
If this works, inspect the mag lock reed switch/monitoring wiring and armature plate alignment.
-
Ensure the mag lock provides a normally closed (NC) signal when the door is shut.
- See troubleshooting document for more information.
Note: On RTR mag locks the black & green flying leads connect to the door switch terminals on the WCPCB.
▪ Touch Sensor Doesn’t Beep When Touched
Step-by-step checks (de-power system for 10 seconds after each step):
-
Ensure the sensor is securely mounted—not dangling or held in hand.
-
Check the jumper next to the sensor relay is fitted and making properly.
-
Use a multimeter to check voltage across +V and 0V at the sensor.
- The touch sensor and LEDs use separate supplies – LEDs being lit doesn’t mean the touch sensor side has power.
-
Confirm 0V is in the correct terminal, not the REM terminal.
- Disconnect the sensor from existing cabling and connect it directly to the controller on a short piece of cable to rule out cable issues.
â–ª System Locks With No One Inside
Solution:
-
Ensure mag lock contacts are wired into the door switch terminals on the control board.
-
Adjust the potentiometer on the internal touch sensor to switch for 3 – 5 seconds.
-
Reduce the sensitivity of the internal touch sensor, especially if emergency lighting or hand dryers are nearby.
-
Remove any excess cable inside the touch sensor back box.
-
Re-terminate internal touch sensor connections.
- Consider fitting the MULTI-TIMER reset relay.
▪ Automatic door doesn’t open when it should
Solution:
-
Remove the two wires from the C and NO door activation terminals on the control board and join them together.
-
If the door still doesn’t open, the problem lies with the operator—contact the supplier/manufacturer.
▪ System Goes RED But Maglock Doesn’t Engage
Solution:
-
Check the position of the override keyswitch on the external sensor.
-
Ensure the break glass hasn’t been pressed.
-
Inspect the lock fuse.
-
Link out the NC & KS/BG terminals on the control board.
-
If the system works after linking, but your keyswitch and break glass are correctly positioned, there is likely a cable break.
-
-
Use a multimeter to check for voltage at the mag lock.
-
If voltage is present but the lock isn’t engaging, the lock is faulty.
-
▪ Touch Sensor LEDs Aren’t Lit
Solution:
-
Check the LED jumper (solid/flashing) on the control board is in place.
-
For square sensors, ensure LED wires are connected to the larger outer PCB (see manual p.10).
-
Use a multimeter to test voltage at the LED terminals:
-
The sensor and LEDs use separate supplies—beeping doesn’t mean LEDs have power.
-
-
Remove the sensor from the wall and connect it directly to the control board using a short cable to rule out wiring issues.
â–ª Touch Sensor LEDs Flashing but I Want Solid Light
Solution:
-
Change the jumper position on the control board.
â–ª Door Re-locks Instantly After Unlocking
Solution:
-
Adjust the potentiometer on the internal touch sensor to switch for 3 – 5 seconds.
-
This may occur if the mag lock contact is flickering open & closed circuit while the touch sensor is still beeping.
-
Check armature alignment and ensure the door does not judder when opening.
-
If the issue persists, replace the mag lock or install a standard magnetic door contact instead.
â–ª Can I Use Multiple Sensors?
Yes!
-
Multiple Door Assist or Touch to Lock/Open sensors can be wired in parallel.
