TURBOLOCK TL116
Section 3
Installation (Retrofit)
This section details installation steps needed if you are installing the TL116 on a door with a single cutout already
made. Replacing an older fixture with a newer one is known as a retrofit. If your door has never had a lock or doorknob
installed or otherwise has no cutout, please skip to Section 4.
• For easier installation, have another person help to hold the lock.
• Remove all parts of any old lock before installing the TL116. In some cases, the old strike plate and/or box may be used.
• For your convenience, installation instructions are broken into segments. Read and follow the instructions for both Pre-
Installation and Main Installation.
• If your door happens to have two cut-outs, check the clearance between the two. Make sure there is enough distance so that
you may seal off any extra openings.
3.1 Pre-Installation
Part 1 - Disassemble the Lock
The TL116 comes already assembled. Before installation, release the wood
screws and mounting screws to disassemble the lock into four main parts:
Outside Assembly x 1, Inside Assembly x 1, Plate x 1, Latch Assembly x 1
