Troubleshooting
The thumb turn feels stiff or difficult to rotate.
Check that the door is correctly aligned with the frame and that the bolt is not catching on the strike plate.
The emergency release on the outside is not turning.
Ensure the internal spindle is correctly aligned and not obstructed by debris or improper installation of the locking housing.
The latch is loose in the door mortice.
Check the depth of the mortice cutout; you may need to use small wood shims or adjust the position of the faceplate screws.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation requires basic woodworking skills, specifically the ability to chisel out the door edge to accommodate the 76mm mortice plate. Ensure your door thickness is sufficient to house the deadbolt housing. To maintain the gold finish, clean regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these may strip the protective lacquer or damage the metallic finish over time. Periodically check that the screws remain tight to prevent wobble during operation.
