Slim Door Lock Actuator

The Install Bay SL-DLA is a two-wire door lock actuator designed to add electric lock and unlock function to vehicle doors. Its slim profile measures five inches long and five-eighths of an inch thick, extending to five and five-eighths inches when fully actuated. The unit includes all mounting hardware required for installation. It is built to meet or exceed stringent industry standards for automotive accessories.

Fitment and Limits

This actuator suits owners adding power locks to a vehicle or replacing a failed unit where space behind the door panel is tight. It works with most vehicles and all common alarm systems. Buyers needing a heavier-duty actuator for high-frequency fleet use or a different stroke length should look at other options. The two-wire design also means it cannot directly replace factory units that require a five-wire or CAN-bus interface.

Included Hardware

The package supplies the mounting brackets, screws and clips needed to secure the actuator inside the door cavity. No separate hardware kit is required, which reduces installation time and prevents trips to the hardware store. The bundled hardware is specific to this actuator’s slim form factor, so it fits the narrow mounting points without modification. No wiring harness, relay or control module is included.

Questions about this item

What wiring harness or control module do I need to connect the two-wire actuator to my car's locking system?

You need a two-wire lock/unlock output from an alarm system, keyless-entry module or relay pack; the actuator itself includes only the mounting hardware.

Will the 5-inch long, 5/8-inch thick body fit alongside the factory rods and latch mechanism in a tight door cavity?

Its slim profile is designed for shallow cavities where standard actuators cannot fit, but you must verify the 5-inch retracted and 5 5/8-inch extended lengths against your specific door interior.

How can I confirm the actuator is locking and unlocking correctly after I wire it up?

Operate the alarm or keyless remote and watch the door lock knob or latch lever move through its full 5 5/8-inch stroke; the lock should engage cleanly at both ends of travel.
