INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1490A
OVERHEAD INSTALLATION HORIZONTAL
1. Examine the top rail of the door for the most suitable location for the strike. Mark the door for the end of the strike closest to
the lock stile, and make a corresponding mark on the header to line up with the first mark.
2. Locate center line of door thickness on the header and use the Template Sheet to determine the header and door cut-outs.
SIDE JAMB INSTALLATION VERTICAL
3. Examine the lock stile jamb for the point nearest the center of the door height, with space available for the lock and strike.
Mark the door stile horizontal for the top end of the strike and make a corresponding mark on the jamb.
4. Locate center line of door thickness on the jamb and use Template Sheet to determine the cut-out to jamb, lining up the top
of the cutout with the horizontal mark on the jamb. Center punch the tab mounting screw locations and counter sink for #10
screw. Saw or rout the cutout 1.26” x 8”.
5. Attach the mounting tabs inside.
