The correct adapter will have the small nub pointing up. NOTE: The adapters can be placed in the mounting plate backwards. So if the shape is correct, but it seems backwards, try flipping the adapter around.

Deadbolt Parts The thumb-latch (or thumbturn) is the part of your deadbolt inside your home that you use to lock and unlock your deadbolt. The deadbolt is the piece of the lock that secures your door shut.
The turnpiece (also known as a tailpiece) is the portion of your lock that extends through your door from the outer key cylinder to the inside of your door. The thumb latch connects to turn piece in order to operate your lock. Your August lock will attach to this in place of the thumb latch. The keyhole is where your keys operate your deadbolt.
None of the mounting plates fit the screws for my lock If you would like to confirm if your deadbolt is compatible with August, please check the compatibility diagrams or send a picture of both sides of the lock, and a side view of your door to photos@august.com.
