7) Mounting the Lock
Select the fixing screws to suit the door thickness. For door
thicknesses less than 1.9” / 48mm use the shorter screws (1.4” /
36mm). Fit the neoprene seals to both the Exterior Code Pad and
Interior Handle Assemblies. Hold the Exterior Code Pad Assembly
onto the door with the spindle in position and ensure that the latch
support post engages the hole in the deadlatch assembly. Locate the
Interior Handle Assembly on the inside of the door engaging the
spindle in the handle hub. Screw both sides together using the fitting
bolts top and bottom. (FIG 1). Before tightening the fixing screws,
make sure the lock is vertical. Test the mechanism to ensure that the
lock functions correctly and moves easily. DO NOT over tighten the
fixing screws; this may cause distortion and lead to poor operation.
CHECK THAT ALL THE CODE WORKS TO AVOID A LOCKOUT
BEFORE CLOSING THE DOOR.
8) Fitting the Strike Plate
Close the door against the door frame and transfer the center of the latch bolt onto the jamb. Position the strike
plate on the door so that it fits against the flat of the latch bolt, with deadlatch plunger depressed (Fig. 1). Close the
door and mark the position of the strike plate on the door jamb. Using the strike plate as a template, align it with the
position marks in the jamb and mark the inner and outer edges of the strike plate on the jamb. (Fig 2). Cut a 1mm
deep rebate so that the strike plate fits flush with door jamb (Fig 2). Drill and chisel out the latch bolt hole to
accommodate the latch bolt strike box (Fig 3). Fit strike plate and strike box using only one wood screw first to
ensure that it is positioned accurately. The latch bolt and the deadlatch plunger should enter the aperture freely and
be held without excessive play. When correctly positioned, secure with the second wood screw and check lock set
for smooth operation.
