Instructions / Assembly
D) Measure the thickness of the door. Doors vary in thickness
depending on the manufacturer. Determine the distance from
the center to the edge of the door (half the thickness of the
door). Using the awl (or nail), mark a point on the edge of the
door where the centerline pencil mark (from Step 1C) and the
center of the edge of the door meet (half the thickness), see
Figure #3.
Step 2
Drill the Door
A) Using the 2-1/8” hole saw, drill the cross bore hole centered
on the mark made on the face of the door from Step 1B. See
Figure #3. Important: To avoid splintering or marring the
door, drill from one side of the door until the pilot bit just
barely comes through the door. Then finish drilling from the
other side of the door, using the hole made by the pilot bit as
your guide.
B) Using the 1
” bit, drill the edge bore hole centered on the mark
made on the edge of the door where the centerline and center
thickness met from Step 1D, see Figure #3. Important:
Make sure that you drill a full 3-1/2” deep, to accommodate
the overall length of the 2-3/8” latch. If you are using a 2-3/4”
backset latch, then the overall depth must be at least 3-3/4”.

Installation Instructions
Double Cylinder Deadbolt
Carefully unpackage all components and place them within easy
reach. Find Figure #1 on Page 5 of these instructions for a listing
and drawing of each component. Detach Figure #1 and place
beside the components for easy reference. Check your door to
see if it has been prepped (pre-drilled) for installing a deadbolt.
If your door has been prepped for installation, start at Step 4. If
your door has not been prepped for installation, you will need a
#2 Phillips screwdriver, a drill, a 2-1/8” hole saw, 7/64” drill bit,
1” drill bit, chisel, pencil, tape and an awl (or nail).
Step 1
Mark the Door
A) Find the Door Preparation Template which is included with
the instructions. Fold the template along the “edge-of-door”
line. Important: Before positioning the template, make sure
that you are aligning it on the non-hinged edge of the door.
Carefully position the template so that the narrow portion
of the template wraps around the edge of the door, and the
large portion of the template remains on the face of the
door, see Figure #2. Slide the template up or down on your
door so that the centerline is located at a height that is both
comfortable to use and attractive in appearance. Typically,
this will be approximately 36”-38” from the floor, see Figure
#2. Once you have chosen the height, tape the template to the
door.
B) Determine the backset of the deadbolt latch (Part #1) by
checking the marking on the deadbolt latch itself. If the latch
is not marked, measure the latch between points A and B to
determine the backset, as shown in Figure #2. The backset
will either be 2-3/8” or 2-3/4”. Once you know your backset,
find the point on the template where the centerline crosses the
vertical line that corresponds with the correct backset. Using
the awl (or nail) mark this point, making sure that it is marked
well enough to see on the door once the template is removed.
C) Follow the centerline around the edge of the door and using
a pencil, extend the centerline onto the edge of the door. The
mark should be horizontal to the floor. Once this mark is
made, you may remove the template from the door.
