Choose The Adapter That Fits Your Thumbturn Connector #

The adapter you choose should correspond to the shape of the existing tailpiece in your door. Slide it over the tailpiece through the mounting plate.

NOTE

If your door’s tailpiece is diagonal you’ll use the green adapter. Vertical or horizontal tailpieces will use one of the other three adapters. The notch at the top of the adapter should aim up and away from your doorway.

Prepare Thumbturn #

Make sure your door is unlocked (turn the thumbturn to the unlocked position). Then check that the lock’s wing latches are out.
