Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Position the bolt on the door frame or door edge where desired.
- Mark the screw hole locations.
- Drill pilot holes (if necessary, especially in harder woods).
- Secure the bolt using the provided screws.
Compatibility:
This barrel bolt is designed for use on most standard interior wooden doors. Ensure the door and frame have sufficient thickness to accommodate the bolt mechanism. It is not designed for metal doors or UPVC doors without appropriate adapters.
Care:
To maintain the polished brass finish and smooth operation:
- Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that can scratch the surface.
- For best performance, occasionally apply a small amount of lubricating oil (like silicone spray or graphite powder) to the bolt mechanism and slide.
- Ensure the screws remain tight to prevent loosening over time.
