Check that the deadbolt will project and retract by key,
and that the key will also retract the latchbolt.
Check that the inside lever handle WILL retract the deadbolt
simultaneously with the latchbolt.
Check that the outside lever handle WILL NOT retract
the deadbolt.
Mark a vertical line on the door jamb half the door
thickness away from the door stop. This gives the centre
line of the strike plate. Align the strike plate template
with the height line, with the arrow heads aligned with
the centre line. Mark the fixing holes, and draw around
the apertures for the latchbolt and the deadbolt.
Chisel out the latch aperture to 12mm (
1
/
2
”) deep,
and the deadbolt aperture to 22mm (
7
/
8
”) deep.
Fix the strike plate with the top screw only and gently
close the door. Ensure that the latchbolt enters its
aperture easily and holds the door without too much
‘play’. When satisfied, draw around the final position of
the strike plate, remove it, and cut a rebate to allow it to
fit flush to the surface. Re-fix the strike with both screws.
Before closing the door, enter the code and check that the
latchbolt will retract when the lever handle is depressed.
Now check the operation of the inside lever handle.
If there is any binding of the handles or the latch then
loosen the bolts and reposition the plates slightly until the
correct position is found, and then re-tighten the bolts.
Fit the double euro profile cylinder and secure it with
the long screw through the faceplate. Fit the cylinder
escutcheons.
