Verify that the spring cassette is properly aligned and that the spindle is not binding against the door cylinder.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure your door is prepared for an M5 bolt-through configuration. The handle uses these M5 screws for a secure, tight fit against the door frame. Use the provided supporting lugs to center the backplate over the lock mechanism before tightening the screws to ensure the handle operates without friction. For care, simply wipe the gold finish with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive sponges, as these can strip the finish and accelerate corrosion. Ensure the handle remains lubricated if environmental conditions are particularly harsh.
