Our business aims to provide superior levels of service to our client base and as such we would like to post some tips to any do it yourself home handymen in regards to installing the above lock. Installation is very important, messing it up could lead to cosmetic damage which is unsightly, or even worse, a possible door replacement depending on what damage has been done.
Its important to measure the back set properly and drill in the right place, drilling the wrong back set, which is easier to do on outward opening doors due to the location of the strike, can compromise the quality of the installation by having to source escutcheons to cover up unsightly holes.
Its also vitally important to use the correct strike, that means metal strikes for metal door frames, which need to be purchased separately from the Lockwood 001’s that are sold in display packs in hardware stores.
