STEP 1.
Mount armature to door.
(See
figures 2A, 2B & 2C.)
STEP 2.
Install the mounting plate
(filler
plate and/or angle bracket if needed – see
figures 1A, 1B & 1C)
to header with only the
two screws at the slotted hole locations at this
time. Snug the screws down lightly (do not
torque) so the mounting plate & lock can be
repositioned later.
STEP 3.
Temporarily install the lock to the
mounting plate with the 1/4-20 socket head
screws encased in the lock.
STEP 4.
With the lock mounted, close the
door so the armature holder just comes into
contact with the face of the lock. If the door
is not completely closed when the lock &
armature touch, open the door and reposition
the lock away from the door as described in
step 2.
(THIS IS TO PREVENT THE DOOR FROM
USING THE LOCK AS THE DOOR STOP.)
STEP 5.
Remove the lock from the
mounting plate, mark & punch all remaining
screw and wiring holes. Drill & tap holes as
indicated on the paper template and install all
screws.
STEP 6.
Reinstall the lock to the mounting
plate. At this point, if there is no need to
remove the lock for painting or any other
reason, install the anti-tamper plugs over the
socket head mounting screws, using a soft
hammer to avoid damage to the lock case.
