Pencil lines showing the center line of the
jamb and the height of the latch when locked
have been established. Use the alignment
marks on the template to align with the pencil
lines on the jamb. Use the two lines on the
top of the template.
DO NOT USE THE TWO
CENTER LINES
. We will route the strike
opening with our HIT-40AR4 template. Attach
to jamb with the supplied tek point screws
and an electric drill. NOTE: It is a good idea
that your drill is equipped with a clutch
feature, this will prevent snapping the screw
off in the jamb.
Make sure the template is square to the jamb
prior to running the second screw in.
Template mounted and ready to go. We
recommend the area to be routed be
lubricated with a cutting lube. We use a
product called Tapmatic Edge Cream made
by the LPS Company. You can find this
product at industrial hardware stores or
machine shop supplies. This is also a handy
product to use for other drilling or tapping
chores.
