Drilling new holes?
Most doors will have an existing hole drilled for a
lever installation. If your door needs to be drilled,
you’ll need to drill a 2 ⅛“ (54mm) face bore hole for
the lockset on the face of the door, as well as a 1”
edge bore hole for the latch on the edge of the door.
Let’s get
started.
First things first, let’s get
your new lock installed. Face Bore Hole
Edge Bore Hole
for Latch

STEP 1
Position the template.
Crease the template along one of the dotted lines
(60mm (2 ⅜’’) or 70mm (2 ¾’’) latch). Place the template
on the door and position with the existing bore hole.
Once the template is aligned, tape it to the door.
The backset is the distance
from the center of the face
bore hole to the edge of
the door.

STEP 2
Mark carefully and drill.
Use a thumbtack or sharp object to mark the center
of each hole you will drill. Mark the three holes on the
exterior of the door.
Then apply the template to the interior of the door and
mark the holes from this side as well.

View the template from
the other side of the
boring hole to make
sure it’s aligned.
Quick Tip
Interior of Door

Remove the template.
Make sure the markings are aligned precisely from one
side of the door to the other and double check all the
measurements and markings before drilling.
Align the drill bit over your mark and hold the door
steady. Keep the drill level and straight. Drill the ⅜”
holes halfway through on the first side. Then drill the
remaining half from the other side of the door. This
prevents damage to the door and improves accuracy.

Repeat these steps for the 1” middle hole.
PLEASE NOTE:
A ½” hole could be drilled instead of a
1” hole if the support tube will not be used.
We use a 1” hole in this example in case the optional
support tube will be used.

OPTIONAL:
If you are using a 70mm latch, and would like to use
the fire cup, insert the fire cup into the 54mm (2 ⅛“)
boring hole. Place the open side of the fire cup to face
the keypad side with the small bolt through-hole at the
bottom.
Install the latch using the
screws provided, with the
bevel towards the door frame.
STEP 3
Install the latch.
Make sure the latch plate lays flush with the door. If the latch plate is
not flush with the door, draw an outline around the faceplate edge
and chisel a rebate to allow the latch to lay flush with the door edge.
Quick Tip

A. Screw the latch support post to the back plate
of the exterior, keypad half of the lock.
Put it in the outer hole of Side A for a left hand hung
door and in outer hole B for a right hand hung door.
Be sure to screw the latch support post in the hole that
aligns with the through-hole in the latch you’re using.
PLEASE NOTE:
A left hand hung door will have the hinges on the left
side when facing the exterior side of the door, a right
hand hung door will have the hinges on the right.
STEP 4
Prepare the exterior,
keypad side of the lock.
Showing outer hole of Side A for a left hand hung door.

B. OPTIONAL: Cable Tube
Installing the cable tube is optional. It does provide some
extra stability and fire protection but is not required.
PLEASE NOTE:
You will need to have drilled a 1” middle hole in order to
use the cable tube. Screw the cable tube into the front plate
(slotted side out), passing the cable through the tube.
If needed, use the slot at the end of the tube and a flat head
screwdriver to screw the cable tube far enough into the exterior
of the lock. Be sure to screw the cable tube in far enough.
C. Fit the rubber gasket on the back plate.
You will see your lock’s serial and model number on the RemoteLock
sticker on the back of the lock. Write it down or take a picture for
your records. This number is needed during online registration after
installation. You will also find this sticker on the lock’s box.

top of the cover.
Next, remove the four screws from the back plate.
B. Separate the interior fixing plate and apply the
other rubber gasket.

F. DO NOT SKIP THIS TEST:
Check that the spindle turns freely and the latch retracts
and projects smoothly with the alignment insert in
place. This can be checked by gripping and turning the
handle hub on the keypad side of the lock. If it is too
tight, you will notice that the latch does not smoothly
and easily snap back into place. Loosen the fixing bolts
slightly and adjust the position of the fixing plate until
the spindle turns freely. Tighten the fixing bolts. Test the
spindle again. Do not over-tighten the bolts.
G. Remove The Alignment Insert
If the insert is le in place, it could cause problems with
the lock. Please make sure to remove this insert before
moving to the next step.
H. Connect Power Cables
Connect the power cables, storing any excess cable in
the door. (If using optional cable tube, screw end cap on.)
