- Rotate the handle 180° to the other side of the lock.
- Using your fingers, press the two pins located on the left and right side of the lock to insert the handle back onto the lock.
- Confirm that your installation was complete by checking if the pins are flush against the handle and have popped out. Adjust the handle accordingly to make sure the pins are fully decompressed and sits flush against the surface. (Indicated by ✔️ and ❌ symbols).
- Check that your handle works smoothly by giving it a turn up and down.
- Twist key back to horizontal position. The key can be taken out once it goes back to the horizontal position.
Changing the Interior Handle Orientation
- Remove the handle retaining screw and detach the handle. Rotate it to 180° then return as shown.
- Insert the handle retaining screw and tighten using a screw driver.
Step 3: PREPARING LOCK FOR INSTALLATION
Carefully prepare the lock and ensure the required parts (C, D, E) have been properly attached before installing to door.
- Install Spindle C with the holes side into the base of the lock and align the holes located in the 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock positions.
- Insert locking pin D into the hole as shown above.
- Carefully bend the end of the locking pin D with a needle nose pliers. Failure to bend the locking pin and turn the handle freely without obstruction will result in malfunction.
- Insert Slotted Barrel Extension E to the upper hole of the exterior assembly. Use pliers to securely tighten E clockwise.
Step 4: INSTALLING THE LOCK (EXTERIOR)
- Install Fire Shield N1 as shown.
- Insert a screwdriver under the fire shield to support while carefully routing cable to the U-shaped notch.
- Pull the cable towards the direction of the arrow.
- While aligning the lock straight up-and-down, pass the wiring cable under the Latchbolt F.
- Ensure Slotted Barrel Extension E is securely installed before inserting on the upper door hole.
- Pass the Spindle C through the center of the latchbolt, and the round rods through the sides in their respective holes. The cable should run underneath the lockset.
- Check lock alignment and ensure that it is sitting flat and aligned straight.
⚠️ IMPORTANT: CABLE SHOULD NOT BE PRESSED OR PINCHED UNDER THE SHIELD.
Step 5: INSTALLING THE LOCK (INTERIOR)
- Insert Positioning Rods V into the holes to the left and right of the Spindle C. The holes are located at the 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock positions.
- Install Fire Shield N1 as shown. Ensure that the cables are routed out of the U-shaped slot and the fire hood does not press cables.
- Cable and Spindle C passed Mounting Plate LK.
- Secure Interior Mounting plate LK with Screws O. Remove the Position Rods V and replace them with Screws O. Tighten clockwise until the mounting plate is secure.

- O2: KM4 x 32mm, for door thickness, 1 2/3"~ 2" (43~50mm)
Step 6: INSTALLING INTERIOR ASSEMBLY (N)
Make sure the cable is away and not tangling with the Spindle C.
Secure the lock interior with 3 screws AE.
- Plug the cable into the interior assembly of the lock making sure you match the red side on the plug with the red side on the lock. Secure the connection by ensuring that the connector is snapped in and inserted tightly.
- Align the Spindle C to the lock interior and attach the Interior lock to the interconnection plate. Gently push some of the excess cable through the rectangular hole into the door. Place the remaining cable inside the interior assembly and ensure it sits securely onto the interconnection plate gear.
- Insert 4 AA batteries into the lock by aligning the positive (+) and negative (-) markings on the batteries to the battery chamber.
- Secure the battery by sliding the Battery Cover Q over the lock and turning the screw clockwise on top until tight.
⚠️ If you need to disconnect this cable, use a screwdriver to hold down the tab before carefully unplugging. DO NOT FORCE as this may result in damaging the lock.
Step 7: INSTALLING THE DOOR STRIKE
Close your door to see if your lock closes securely with your existing door strike. If the lock closes securely, you may keep the existing door strike without removing the old hardware. However, it’s recommended that you use the Lockly door strike.
Check the alignment of the screw holes of both latchbolt and strike. Ensure the latchbolt plunger is against the Strike Plate H.
Make sure the slanted side of Latchbolt F is closing against the slanted part of Strike Plate H before fixing it on to the door frame.
