2. Install the Latch and Strike

A. Hold the latch in front of the door hole, with the latch face flush against the door edge.

Is the rectangular shaped hole centered in the door hole?

• YES: No adjustment is required. Proceed to next step.
• NO: Rotate latch face as shown to extend latch.

B. Is the door edge chiseled?

• YES (chiseled): Install latch in door with supplied screws. Make sure slotted hole is at bottom of latch.
• NO (not chiseled): Use a flathead screwdriver to remove latch face. Once removed, grip the latch with one hand and with the other hand twist collar off. Install drive-in collar. Align tabs with holes in collar. Ensure collar snaps into place. Pull collar to test for tight fit. Install latch in door with wood block and hammer. Make sure slotted hole is at bottom of latch.

WARNING: This Manufacturer advises that no lock can provide complete security by itself. This lock may be defeated by forcible or technical means, or evaded by entry elsewhere on the property. No lock can substitute for caution, awareness of your environment, and common sense. Builder's hardware is available in multiple performance grades to suit the application. In order to enhance security and reduce risk, you should consult a qualified locksmith or other security professional.

CAUTION: Prevent unauthorized entry. Since anyone with access to the back panel can change the User Codes, you must restrict access to the back panel and routinely check the User Codes to ensure they have not been altered without your knowledge. The use of a programming code can help protect your system's settings.
