Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the Tonitrui catch follows the same process as standard ball catches.
- Removal: Carefully unscrew the existing ball catch mechanism from the door edge using a standard screwdriver.
- Assessment: Ensure the existing mortise hole is clean and clear of debris.
- Insertion: Slide the Tonitrui unit into the existing cutout. Because the footprint matches industry standards, it should fit snugly without modification.
- Adjustment: Use the integrated adjustment screws to calibrate the magnet projection to match your strike plate position.
- Maintenance: Periodically wipe the magnet face with a dry cloth to prevent the buildup of metallic dust or lint, which can weaken the connection strength over time.
