Assembly Instruction
-
Step 1:
Use Allen Key supplied with the Door Handle Screw Pack to remove inside plate from the door handles. Do not remove grub screws entirely, just loosen then so the plate can come off. -
Step 2:
Plate shown removed with the Grub screws still on the bottom of the door handle plate.
-
Step 3: Place Plates on the Inside and Outside Privacy Adapters. Use Bolts (6) to fix plates to Adapters. Tolerance is very tight so use 1 to 2 turns on the first bolt and then do the same with the second bolt. Keep doing this until bolts are tight.
-
Step 4: Inside and Outside Privacy Adapters shown with all 4 bolts firmly fixed (2 per adapter).
-
Step 5: Screw in posts from Door Handle Screw Pack as shown. They can go on either side. For purposes of these instructions we have placed them on the outside Adapter
-
Step 6: Place the Adapter with the posts on the correct side of the door (outside adapter shown) with the posts going through the holes in the latch located either side of the spindle hub.
-
Step 7: Adapter on opposite side shown with posts going through the latch.
-
Step 8: Next insert Main Spindle (3) and Short Emergency Spindle (4 or 5 depending on door thickness).
-
Step 9: Ensure that both inside and outside Adapters have the snobs facing towards the latch. Place other privacy adapter so that the Main Spindle and Emergency Release Spindle fit into their respective holes.
-
Step 10: Use Tie Bolts to fix Inside Adapter to Posts. Tighten firmly then loosen up a few turns. Test function of both sides by turning snib (inside) and emergency release (outside). Contact supplier if either Emergency Spindle is not long enough. This can occur with door thicker than 40mm.
-
Step 11: Ensure that both adapters are square to the door then tighten the Tie Bolts (7). Once tight, screw in wood screws to the 2 remaining holes in the corners of the adapter.
-
Step 12: Place one of the handles over the adapter. Push Main Spindle into this handle from the opposite side and ensure that there is enough of the Main Spindle protruding in order for the door handle to engage the Main Spindle. Place handles over the Adapters and tighten up grub screws using the Allen Key.
