  • Page 10 Step 1: Prepare existing deadbolt. Affix the supplied adhesive strip over the key hole, securing it to the exterior side of your door. This should hold the key hole in place when you remove the thumb-latch on the inside of the door. On some doors, such as those with glossy paint, the included tape may not be strong enough.

  • Page 12 Step 2: Remove your existing thumb-latch. Position your thumb-latch so that you can unscrew the existing screws on your deadbolt. Remove the screws entirely from the deadbolt and keep them to assist in the next step. After removing the screws, be sure to unlock your deadbolt before removing the thumb-latch.

  • Page 16 Step 3a: Select the correct mounting plate. Insert the existing screws in the thumb-latch to help you choose the correct mounting plate. If there was a back plate under your thumb-latch, insert the screws into this back plate instead of the thumb-latch. Slide the mounting plates onto the screws one at a time until you find a mounting plate that allows the screws to fit straight through the holes.

Remove the screws from the thumb-latch and use them to install the mounting plate over the existing deadbolt tail piece.

If your lock was not in the Compatibility Chart, select the adapter that fits your tail piece. To do this, slide each adapter onto the tail piece.
