Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal performance, verify that your door thickness is compatible with the standard mortice sizing before installation.
- Compatibility Check: Ensure your selected door handles are of the *sprung* variety. If your handles are unsprung, the latch bolt will not return to the neutral position, causing the door to hang slightly open.
- Installation: Bore the required hole in the door edge based on the latch specifications. Insert the unit, ensuring the bolt bevel faces the direction of the door closing.
- Care: Keep the moving parts free of debris. If the latch becomes stiff over time, a light application of a silicone-based lubricant on the bolt can restore smooth operation. Avoid using heavy greases that may attract dust and grit.
