2. Installing Bolt and Strike

  1. Adjust the bolt length by pressing, twisting, and pulling/pushing to match your door's backset (2 3/8" or 2 3/4").
  2. Insert the bolt into the door edge, ensuring the 'UP' icon faces upwards.
  3. Secure the deadbolt with Screw C.
  4. Install the strike plate into the door frame using Screws A and B.

3. Installing Exterior Assembly

  1. If your door thickness is not standard (1 3/4"), cut the tailpiece using pliers according to the provided thickness guide.
  2. Keep the tailpiece horizontal and insert it through the middle hole of the bolt.
  3. Route the cable through the hole below the bolt.

4. Installing Mounting Plate

  1. Pass the cable through the bottom hole of the mounting plate.
  2. Ensure the tailpiece goes through the middle hole of the mounting plate.
  3. Secure the mounting plate using Screws D. Verify that two lines of the tailpiece are visible outside the hole.

5. Installing Interior Assembly

  1. Remove the battery cover from the interior assembly.
  2. Plug the cable connector firmly into the socket on the interior assembly until you hear a click.
  3. Rotate the knob on the interior assembly to a vertical position (unlocked).
  4. Carefully tuck the wire inside the door to prevent pinching.
  5. Attach the interior assembly to the mounting plate using Screws E.

6. Testing the Bolt

To ensure proper function, manually rotate the knob on the interior assembly a couple of times. The bolt should extend and retract smoothly. Close the door and test again to confirm the bolt matches the strike in the door frame.

7. Installing Batteries and Door Handing Process

  1. Rotate the knob on the interior assembly to a horizontal position (locked). The bolt should extend.
  2. Insert four AA batteries into the interior assembly. The red LED light will turn on, and you will hear a beep.
