• The deadbolt is typically engaged or disengaged by a thumb turn on the interior or by a key/keypad entry on the exterior, depending on the specific external lock components used.
• Ensure the deadbolt operates smoothly without obstruction.

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and reliable operation of your lock body.

• Cleaning: Wipe the visible parts of the lock body with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, which can damage the finish.
