2Cremone Bolt Installation Instructions

A CB

1. Turn the cremone bolt handle (A) until the

cremone mechanism is fully extended.

2. Assemble the cremone bolt by hooking the

rods onto the cremone mechanism.

3. Hold the bolt together and place it in the

desired mounting location on the face of your

door or window.

Note: The flat side of the rods should be against the

installation surface.

4. Mark the locations of the mounting holes in the

bolthandle.

5. Determine the appropriate bolt rod length. The

rods should extend 1/2" into the door jam. Trim

the rods with a hacksaw as necessary.

6. Set the bolt aside and drill mounting holes in the

locations marked in step 4.

7. Attach the bolt assembly (handle, and rods) to

the installation surface with the ﬂat face of the

rods against the surface.

8. Holding the rods in place, attach the upper and

lower mid-point guides (

B) to the installation

surface. Use a level to make sure that the rods are

properly aligned. At this point, the bolt assembly is

self-supported.

9. Attach the upper and lower end guides (C).

10. Close the door or window and mark the

locations of the strike plates (E) on the door frame.

Drill holes 1/2" deep for the bolt rods. Use a chisel

to create a shallow recess around the holes so that

the strike plates will be ﬂush with the frame.

Attach the strike plates to the frame.
