Maintenance
All locks come from the factory pre-lubricated with grease. We recommend, however, continued periodic lubrication of moving parts like, latch, auxiliary latch and deadbolt, with a non-silicon based commercial quality grease with a suitable operational temperature range for the environment in which the product is installed (every 20.000 cycles or once a year). This can prolong the life o the lockset by reducing excessive wear. If the lockset is used in a harsh environment, lubrication should be applied more frequently.
