Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Determine the desired location for the bolt on your door or gate.
- Mark the positions for the bolt housing and the receiver plate.
- Drill pilot holes as needed for secure mounting.
- Attach the bolt housing and keeper plate using the provided screws.
- Ensure the bolt slides smoothly into the keeper plate when operated.
Compatibility:
This bolt is designed for use on standard wooden or metal doors and gates. Ensure there is sufficient clearance for the bolt to slide freely. It is best suited for applications where a strong, manual locking action is required.
Care:
To maintain the bolt's performance and appearance, clean it periodically with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could damage the zinc plating. For external use, a light application of oil on the sliding mechanism can help prevent stiffness, especially in humid or cold conditions.
