Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install your new handle set, start by removing the existing door hardware and ensuring the hole in the door is clear of debris. Insert the 2.5-inch bathroom mortise lock into the door edge and secure it with the provided screws. Slide the spindle through the lock mechanism, attach the handles on both sides, and fasten them securely. For compatibility, verify your door thickness meets the standard requirements for a 2.5-inch mortise lock. To care for your gold finish, clean the handles periodically with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scouring pads, as these can dull the metallic surface and strip the protective lacquer.
