Before replacing an existing lockset, compare the new lock dimensions with the existing mortice preparation to determine whether alterations to the door will be necessary.

Installation

Before installation:

• Confirm the door thickness and preparation.
• Check the 76mm casing compatibility.
• Determine the correct latch orientation.
• Ensure the lock body fits correctly into the mortice.
• Position the handles and spindle correctly.
• Secure all components using appropriate fixings.
• Test the latch and locking mechanism before completing installation.

The reversible latch should be configured to suit the direction in which the door closes.

Care and Maintenance

Keep the lock mechanism and handles clean and inspect them periodically for loose fixings.

Avoid harsh abrasive cleaners that could damage the black nickel finish. If lubrication becomes necessary, use a product suitable for door-lock mechanisms and follow the manufacturer’s recommendations.
