INSTALL LOCKSET AND FINISH INSTALLATION
1. Most lockset holes
will be pre-drilled
and the lockset can
be installed per
the manufacturer's
instructions. if the
lockset hole is not
pre-drilled, follow
the instructions in
step 2, otherwise,
skip to step 3.
2. if installing into
existing jambs, bore
for the lockset where
it will align with the
existing strike.
if installing new jambs, the center of the hole for the lockset is
usually centered in the rail (horizontal member) across the center of
the slab or 35" from the bottom of the slab (not the sweep). Lockset
holes should be either 2 3/8" or 2 3/4" on center from the edge,
depending on the latch. Using the lockset manufacturer's instructions
and template, drill for lockset. generally, a 2 1/8" diameter hole is
needed for the lockset. Drill a 1" latch hole through the edge of the
slab into the center of the lock hole to accommodate the latch for
the lock. Some latches have a radius (rounded corners) or rectangular
face plate that will require the slab edge to be chiseled for fit. Drill
pilot holes for attachment screws. Other latches are round (contractor
drive-in) and can be tapped into place with a hammer. install lockset
per manufacturer's instructions.
