Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a locksmith, contractor, or qualified DIYer. Ensure the door is fully closed and any existing lockset hardware is removed before fitting the latch into the door edge bore. A standard Phillips screwdriver and chisel are typically used to seat the latch plate flush with the door edge. Verify backset measurement and door hand orientation before finalizing the latch adjustment setting.
