Latchset Installation section before 
proceeding to step # 2.
3. Install the outside 
adaptor. Insert the flat 
head screws through 
the inside adaptor and 
into the outside adaptor.  
Do not fully tighten at 
this time.
2. Install the inside 
adaptor. This adaptor 
will have thru-holes for 
the flat head screws to 
fit into.
1. Locate the position 
for hole in door. If not 
used with a double 
door, the hole location 
should be approx. 40” 
from floor. Drill a 1/2” 
hole through door. 
2. Place backplate on door so that 
the flat surface is toward the floor. 
The flat surface should be parallel 
to the floor and perpendicular to 
the door edge. A builder’s square 
should be used for best results. 
Using the backplate as a template, 
mark center locations for (3) screw 
holes. Remove backplate and 
pre-drill (3) holes for screws ½” 
deep using a 1/16” drill bit. Install 
backplate with (3) flat head screws 
provided.  Repeat for both sides of 
door. IMPORTANT: Before drilling 
1/16” holes ensure the spindle can 
insert into one backplate and out 
of the other at marked position.
1. With backset marking 
facing up, grasp the 
faceplate and rotate to 
assure bevel side of 
latchbolt faces jamb. 
Slide the latch into the 
door as shown and 
secure with (2) #8-3/4” 
combination screws
4. Insert the spindle 
into the latch with the 
ends protruding from 
both adaptors. Slide 
the alignment bushings 
onto the spindle ends 
and into the adaptors. 
Tighten the screws and 
remove the alignment 
bushings.
5. Remove the spindle.  
Attach the roses by 
screwing the threaded re-
tainer onto the adaptors. 
Orient the rose as desired 
and securely tighten by 
using the spanner tool.  
For 5” & 10” roses, 
ensure rose is parallel 
with door edge and 
drill 3/32” x 1/2“ deep 
pilot holes at marked 
locations. Install #8 oval 
head screws into door.
7. Slide a nylon washer 
onto the base of both 
knobs or levers. Slide 
the spindle with the 
previously attached 
knob or lever into the 
latch with the set screw 
pointed down and 
toward the hinges of the 
door. Secure the other 
knob or lever to the 
exposed spindle end.”
