PK 1234 Keyed Entry Lockset - FIG

  1. Before drilling holes, measure up 38” from floor and mark height on edge of the door in pencil. This will determine the height placement of the lock on the door.
  2. Measure the thickness of the door. Mark the center point on the edge of the door that intersects with the 38” height line. This will determine where the latch hole must be drilled.
  3. Position template on the face of the door. If the door is beveled, place the template on the low side of the bevel. Mark the location of the desired backset in pencil at the 38” height line.  Backset is the measurement of the distance from the edge of the door to the center of the knob or lever hole. 2-3/8” or 2-3/4”.BALDWIN PK 1234 Keyed Entry Lockset - Lever Hole
  4. Knob/Lever Hole- Drill a 2-1/8” hole into the face of the door. Bore from both sides, to prevent damaging a wood door.
  5. Latch Hole- Drill a 1” hole into the edge of the door at the point where the height line and center of the door thickness meet. You have already marked this in step #2. Drill the hole 3-1/2” deep. BALDWIN PK 1234 Keyed Entry Lockset - FIG 1

Dummy Strike Preparation

The strike needs to be installed in relationship to the direction that the doors open. Whether the doors open in or out, the angled side of the latch bolt must always face towards the stationary door when the active door is in the open position. The strike is then positioned with the lip facing the angled side of the latch bolt as illustrated.BALDWIN PK 1234 Keyed Entry

Door Preparation for Dummy Trim

  1. Caution: Before proceeding with the Door Preparation, refer to the Dummy Strike Preparation Illustration to ensure that the curved section of the strike is positioned properly. Fold the template on the line and place it on the door at the exact height of the previously installed Keyed Entry Lockset. If the door is beveled, place the folded edge on the low  side of the bevel as shown in the illustration. Mark the door for the face and edge bores.
    Note: Dummy Trim must use the same backset as the active trim.BALDWIN
