Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by carpenters, general contractors, or experienced DIYers using a drill, screwdriver, and standard layout tools. Ensure the mounting surface is structurally sound and that the bolt aligns flush with the strike or hasp before fastening. Use all provided screws and verify smooth bolt travel before considering the installation complete. For exterior applications, consider a weatherproof finish-compatible sealant around the mounting plate to prevent moisture intrusion.
