Lock Body Adjustment
Having determined the door opening direction, we first need to adjust the direction of the door latch
on the lock body, so that it will engage correctly when the door closes.
The rule of thumb here is quite simple. Simply rotate the door latch so that its bevel (curved bit)
points in the direction of the door frame, once it is fitted into the door. The following procedure
outlines how to do this:
1)
Pull up the
Rotate Switch
, which will
release the door latch, enabling you to
rotate it.
2)
Pull the door latch out and rotate it 180
degrees, as shown, making sure the bevel
(curved bit) points towards the door
frame.
3)
Push the door latch back in and release
the
Rotate Switch
.
