While installing or using the Aegis door lock, please avoid turning the Aegis door lock too fast or with too much force, or it may cause irreversible damage to the motor.
(1) Fix the deadbolt in place
Use the adhesive strip in the box to fix the exterior (outdoor) part of the deadbolt, in order to prevent it from falling when the thumbturn is removed.
(2) Remove the thumbturn
Make sure that the deadbolt is in locked position. Unscrew both screws and
remove the thumbturn from the deadbolt. Keep the screws handy for the next
step. If there is an additional plate, remove it as well.
(3) Remove the base plate
Open the latches to remove the base plate
(4) Place the base plate over the deadbolt
Insert the two screws into the screw holes from the front of the base plate.
Match both screws to the screw holes on the deadbolt. Please make sure that
the base plate’s back side is against the door, i.e. the bottom part of the
base plate should be flush with the door.
(5) Mount the base plate
Adjust the base plate so that the tailpiece goes through its center hole.
Tighten the screws to fix the base plate on the door. Please do not over-
tighten the screws as it may damage the door.
(6) Select the correct adapter
A. If the deadbolt has an arch-shaped tailpiece, please use the arch-shaped
adapter.
B. If the deadbolt has a thick, rectangular tailpiece that is upright or level while the door is locked, please use the shorter and thicker rectangular adapter.
C. If the deadbolt has a thin tailpiece that is upright or level while the door is locked, please use the “+” shaped adapter.
D. If the deadbolt has a thin tailpiece that is angled while the door is locked, please use the angled rectangular adapter. Select the correct adapter based on your dead bolt’s tailpiece. If the adapter fits the tailpiece but does not fit in Aegis’s motor, flip the adapter and try again. Place the adapter on the tailpiece.
(7) Check the deadbolt’s locking direction
Looking out from inside of the door, if the bolt is at the left side of the
door, then it locks counterclockwise; if the bolt is at the right side, then
it locks clockwise.
(8) Turn Aegis to the locked position
If the deadbolt locks counterclockwise, gently turn Aegis counterclockwise
till the end; if the deadbolt locks clockwise, gently turn Aegis clockwise
till the end. Note: Stop turning once you feel a strong friction turning
further. Do not force-turn Aegis as it may cause severe damage to the motor.
(9) Install Aegis
Make sure that the door remains locked. Open both latches on the back of
Aegis, and mount Aegis on the base plate. Make sure that the adapter fits in
the motor, and there is no gap between the base plate and Aegis. Finally,
close the latches so that Aegis is secured on the base plate.
(10) Power on Aegis
Take off Aegis’s front cover, and insert 4 AA batteries into the battery
slots. After that, you should see a white light flash once, indicating that
Aegis is powered on. Then, place the front cover back.
