Configuração e instalação
The Building L Handle Door Lock Set is designed for straightforward installation. Follow these general steps:
- Prepare a Porta: Ensure your door has a pre-drilled hole for the handle shaft. The 5-1/2 inch shaft length accommodates doors up to 4-1/2 inches thick. If necessary, enlarge the hole to fit the shaft and allow for the interior D-handle mechanism.
- Install Exterior L-Handle: Insert the L-handle's shaft through the exterior side of the door.
- Attach Interior D-Handle: On the interior side of the door, align the D-handle with the shaft and the pre-drilled screw holes.
- Fixe com parafusos: Use the provided screws to firmly attach the D-handle to the door, securing both the interior and exterior components. A square bit screwdriver may be required for the screws.
- Operação de teste: Verify that the L-handle turns smoothly and the locking mechanism functions correctly with the provided keys. Ensure the D-handle also operates without obstruction.
Observação: If installing on a new door, precise measurements and drilling are crucial. For existing doors, ensure the new lock set aligns with previous hardware cutouts for a secure fit.
Instruções de operação

Manutenção
To ensure the smooth operation and longevity of your door lock set, consider the following maintenance tips:
- Limpeza regular: Wipe down the handles with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and grime. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the powder-coated finish.
- Lubrificação: Periodically apply a small amount of graphite lubricant or a silicone-based spray to the key cylinder to maintain smooth key insertion and turning.
- Verifique os fixadores: Occasionally check the mounting screws for tightness. Re-tighten if any looseness is detected to prevent wobbling or misalignment.
- Fatores ambientais: In areas with significant humidity or temperature fluctuations, wood doors may expand or contract, potentially affecting the door's fit and the lock's alignment. Adjustments to the door or strike plate may be necessary over time.
Solução de problemas
- A alavanca está rígida ou difícil de girar:
Solução: Apply lubricant to the key cylinder and the moving parts of the latch mechanism. Check for any obstructions around the latch or strike plate. If the door itself has expanded due to humidity, this can cause increased friction; consider adjusting the door frame or strike plate. - Key Does Not Turn or Is Difficult to Insert:
Solução: Ensure the key is fully inserted. Apply graphite lubricant to the key and insert it into the cylinder several times. If the issue persists, the cylinder may be damaged or obstructed. - Door Does Not Latch Properly:
Solução: Check the alignment of the latch with the strike plate on the door frame. The strike plate may need to be adjusted slightly to ensure the latch engages fully. Wood expansion or contraction can cause misalignment. - Screws Become Loose:
Solução: Re-tighten the mounting screws. If screws repeatedly loosen, consider using longer screws or wood glue in the screw holes for a more secure fit.
