PLEASE
CAREFULLY READ ALL OF THE
INSTRUCTIONS PRIOR TO INSTALLATION
STEP -1
Use one of the following
methods for locating the mounting holes required
to install the
latch. THESE INSTRUCTIONS APPLY TO ALL POST SIZES.
WITHOUT MOUNTING TEMPLATE
At the desired mounting height of the Keystone®Advantage on the Fence Post, mark the centerpoints
of the 2 holes, 5/8" from
post edge spaced by 2-11/16". Drill 5/8" diameter holes at both centerpoints (fig 1).
IMPORTANT: HOLES MUST BE STRAIGHT AND LEVEL.
WITH MOUNTING TEMPLATE
Draw a level line at the desired height for the latch on the side of
the post facing the gate. This line will locate the center of the latch
when installed (fig 2).
Next, align the
template so that the side with (3) holes is on the
side of the post with the
line. The line should be visible through the
center
hole of the template (fig 3). Mark all (7) holes
provided in the
template.
Reverse the template (fig 4) and align as described
in previous
step. Mark all holes in template.
Using marks created in previous steps, drill all (14) mounting holes.
The two center
spindle holes (fig 5) require a
05/8"
hole. All other
holes will be drilled to 01/8".

STEP -4
Attach the Button
Assembly to the fence post with the
Button Spindle mounted
through the lower hole and the
Cylinder Spindle through the upper hole.
Without the
button depressed the cylinder spindle should protrude
through the post by 1/4" and the button spindle should
protrude by 1/2". Be sure the spindle tips are free from
burrs and
sharp edges. Align the cylinder spindle so that
it matches
the mating slot in the latch assembly. The
mating slot is in the top hole on
the back of the latch
assembly.
