We provide an elementary proof of geometric synchronisation for scalar conservation laws on a domain with Dirichlet boundary conditions. Unlike previous results, our proof does not rely on a strict maximum principle, and builds instead on a quantitative estimate of the dissipation at the boundary. We identify a coercivity condition under which the estimates are uniform over all initial conditions, via the construction of suitable super- and sub-solutions. In lack of such coercivity our results build on Lp energy estimates and a Lyapunov structure.
