3. Normal tailpiece length

Most doors have tailpieces that 

extends 10 mm from the doorplate. 

They will fit the Danalock without 

need for any adjustments to their 

lenght!
If the tailpiece is less than 10 mm 

long from the door surface, an 

extra tailpiece can be found 

in the Danalock box. 

(See the next illustration no 4).
The Danalock V3 works with 

a tailpiece length up to 35 mm 

at maximum.
If the tailpiece length 

exceeds 35 mm you 

will have to shorten it.

(See the illustration no 5).

If the tailpiece is less than 

10 mm long you have to 

remove the plate that 

holds the tailpiece and 

replace it with the 

tailpiece from the 

Danalock box.
You then need to 

shorten the new 

tailpiece after you 

have mounted the 

back plate.

Place the back plate

where the thumb turn 

used to be on your door.
The round hole in the
