Installation 1 Prepare your existing deadbolt Place the supplied adhesive strip to hold the keyed side of the lock in place. Be sure to press down the tape against the keyhole when you install the smart lock on the inside of the door. 2 Remove your existing thumbturn Use a Philips Screwdriver to remove your existing thumbturn. Be sure to unlock your deadbolt before removing the thumbturn entirely. If your deadbolt has a back plate, remove that as well.
Installation 4 Optional: Determine if you need the Cover Plate For oversized deadbolt holes, an optional cover plate is included with your smart lock. If your smart lock’s mounting plate does not fully cover the hole left by the removed thumbturn, you may want to use the included Cover Plate. Attach the Mounting Plate 1. If using the optional Cover Plate, place it over the deadbolt hole. 2. Take note of the DOOR SIDE and UP arrow. 3.
Installation 6 Attach the adapter Place the adapter onto the tail piece. One of the triangle shaped teeth should be facing up if you have the correct adapter. Make sure the non teeth side of the adapter goes in through the tail piece first. 7 Rotate to unlocked position and open wing latches Rotate the thumbturn on your August Smart Lock all the way to the unlocked position, which may take some moderate force. The direction you turn will depend on which side of the door your deadbolt is on.
Installation 8 Attach the August Smart Lock Before placing the August Smart Lock on the door, ensure the thumbturn is in the correct unlocked position. Slide the smart lock over the tailpiece and attach it to the mounting plate. To secure the smart lock, clamp down both side wing latches to the mounting plate completely. Make sure the back of the lock is flush with the door, and the lock is able to lock and unlock the deadbolt manually by rotating the outer shell.
Installation 10 Remove the battery tab While holding the batteries in place, remove the plastic battery isolation tab. Make sure that the battery is properly seated in its compartment. 11 Reattach the faceplate Place the faceplate back onto the smart lock, with the August logo at the bottom 12 Install DoorSense® DoorSense® enables your lock to know when the door is open and closed.
