Important about left and right
The name left or right has nothing to do with whether the door is left or right-hung.
The variant is instead determined by the position of the brake lever inside the brake box.
• Brake lever on the left side = left-hand model
• Brake lever on the right side = right-hand model
Hold the brake box with the opening facing up and the short side facing you when checking this.
