The spring loaded spindle (pat app) will fit doors between

55mm and 70mm thick. For doors less than 55mm remove

the 15mm break-off end of the spindle. The spindle will

then fit doors between 40mm and 55mm. The spring keeps

the spindle firmly engaged and prevents it moving out of

engagement with either of the plates.
Insert the spindle, with the spring to the outside, through the

slot in the deadbolt.
Cut the fixing bolts to suit the door thickness, allowing at

least one, but no more than two, threaded sections to enter

the lock case.
Hold the lock case and the back plate, with the seals, onto

the door with the spindle in position.
Using the fixing bolts screw everything together, first through

the top, and then through the bottom hole of the back plate.

Before final tightening make sure that the lock is vertical,

and test the mechanism to ensure that it is all moving easily.

DO NOT CLOSE THE DOOR UNTIL YOU ARE SURE THAT

THE CODE WORKS. DO NOT overtighten the fixing bolts as

this may cause distortion and lead to poor operation.

Position the keeper plate on the frame so that it lines up

with the deadbolt.
Mark the inner and outer edges of the keeper plate and cut a

rebate so that it fits flush with the surface of the door frame.
Drill or cut a recess 25mm deep for the deadbolt.
Fit the keeper plate using only one wood screw at first to

ensure that it is positioned accurately. The deadbolt should

enter the aperture easily. When satisifed secure the keeper

with the second screw.

Fit the deadbolt support post in

hole A for a right hand hung door,

or B for a left hand hung door. Your

door is right handed if, viewed from

outside, the hinges are on the right.

Crease the template along the Door Edge line and tape it to the door.
Mark the 2 x 8mm holes, and the 4 x 15mm holes. Mark the

centre of the door edge on the Centre Line of Deadbolt.
Apply the template to the other side of the door, aligning it with the

first mark in the middle of the door edge, and mark the 2 x 8mm

holes and the 4 x 15mm holes again.
Keeping the drill level and square to the door, drill the holes from

both sides to avoid splintering out the door face.
Use a chisel to clear the 4 x 15mm holes into a single square hole.

Positioning and fixing the deadbolt
Drill a 25mm hole, 90mm deep, on the mark on the centre of the

door edge. Be careful to keep the drill level and square to the door.
Put the deadbolt into the hole and draw around the faceplate.
Remove the deadbolt. Score the outline with a Stanley

knife prior to chiselling a 3mm deep rebate to accept the

faceplate flush to the door.
Fix the deadbolt with the wood screws.
