Ultimate Lock 3000 Series User manual

The Ultimate Lock™ 3000 Series Installation Guide
a. This lock is designed for a door that opens into the home or ofce. The lock can be installed on an outward
swinging door, but special instructions are required. Go to the www.theultimatelock.com for details.
b. To provide maximum protection, The Ultimate Lock™ should be installed in a solid 1-3/4” thick wood door or
steel-skinned wood-lled door mounted in a double studded door frame.
c. If your door does not already have a deadbolt installed, it is highly recommended that you purchase an
installation jig kit for deadbolts and door handles. These kits include special hole saws, templates, and other aids
to simplify the installation process. If your door has a metal skin, be sure your kid includes a bi-metal hole saw
If your door jamb/frame is steel, do not remove the hinge screws! See step 2. Check www.theultimatelock.com to
get information on installing the striker plate on a steel door frame.

2. Reinforce Your Hinges
3. Measure Your Backset
a. It is very important to reinforce the hinges of your door to get maximum protection from forced entry. Your
Ultimate Lock™ comes with special screws to secure the hinges to the door frame, and not just the jamb board.
b. See Figure 2 and remove half of the existing screws from each of the three hinges as shown in the diagram. If
the screws in the door are machine screws (NOT wood screws), do not remove them. Some metal doors have a
metal hinge side and use machine screws to hold the hinges to the door.
c. Use the special 5" (121 mm) long x 5/32" (4 mm) diameter drill bit provided to drill out the exposed screw holes
all the way into the studs behind the door frame. The longer screws  go in the frame and the shorter screws
 go in the door side of the hinge. NOTE: If the door is ber glass or steel sheeted, do not pre-drill the holes
in the door hinges unless the screws have trouble going into the door. If you run into resistance getting the
screws into the door, STOP, predrill the screw holes, and screw in the shorter screws until snug. If your drill has
adjustable torque, set the torque to slip just as the screw is snug. This is also an excellent time to lightly lubricate
the hinge pins one at a time with a suitable lubricant to stop squeaks and rust.
d. Install the longer screws  into the door jamb, and the shorter screws into the door.
Door Frame
Side
Door
Side

screws into door NOTE: Door frame side only gets screws on the inside two holes closest
to center of hinge. Door will either get two screws in center of door or, if
no screws are in center of the door, one screw in the top inside hole and
one screw in bottom outside hole (typically seen on a steel skinned door).
a. For doors with a deadbolt or key lock: Remove the old lock from
the door. Measure the distance from the center of the hole for the old
lock to the edge of the door. It will be either 2 3/8" or 2 3/4". Also
measure the diameter of the hole in the edge of the door for the bolt.
It should be 1 inch (25 mm) in diameter. If the hole is smaller than 1",
use a 1-inch spade drill and expand the hole to the proper size. You
can now skip to step 4.
b. For doors without an existing deadbolt: See Figure 3 and measure
the backset for your door handle/knob. The center of the knob will
either be 2 3/8" or 2 3/4" from the edge of the door. Also measure the
thickness of your door. Write these measurements down.
5½ to 6 inches

Hole must be
1” in diameter.
Drill out if needed.
Figure 2
Figure 3

Your Ultimate Lock™ should be installed 5½ to 6" (127 to 153 mm) ABOVE the
center of the door handle/knob, and the backset should match the door handle/
knob. Measure this distance above the center of the existing door handle/knob
and draw a horizontal line from the door edge back approximately 3 inches on
both sides of the door and across the edge of the door (see Figure 3).
For steel doors with steel door jambs: When installing the Ultimate Lock™ in
steel doors with steel door jambs, the lock must be installed in line with the hole
in the steel door jamb for the deadbolt striker (usually covered with a plate). Place
the paper drilling template (or install jig) on the centerline of the recess, and draw
a line on the door (Figure 4). This will be the centerline for installing the lock in
the door.

These steps are not necessary if you are replacing an
existing deadbolt lock. The hole for the cylinder lock and
deadbolt will already be in place.
a. Using the 5" long 5/32" bit provided, drill the pilot hole
for the lock cylinder as marked in Step 5 (template mark
A or B) to match the backset of the handle/knob).
Make sure the drill bit goes straight through the door.
It is recommended that you drill half way through from
each side of the door.
b. Using the same bit, drill the pilot hole for the deadbolt.
Make sure the drill bit goes in level and the pilot hole is
in the middle of the door.
c. Using a 2 1/8" hole saw, drill out the hole for the lock
cylinder. To prevent splintering, drill through from both sides of the door.
d. Close the door and push a 2 to 2¼" long nail through the deadbolt pilot hole, from inside the cylinder lock hole,
to mark the location for the striker plate hole (Figure 6).
e. Using a 1" hole saw, drill the hole for the deadbolt (Figure 3). Use a sharp chisel to mortise the new deadbolt
faceplate 1/8" (3 mm) deep into the edge of the door.
Push nail through pilot hole
to mark location for center
of striker hole.

7. Install Deadbolt
8. Install Key Lock
a. Look at your door from the inside and note if the hinge is on the right or the left.
b. For a door with hinges on the right, install deadbolt with the cross hole at the bottom. For a door with hinges
on the left, install the deadbolt with the cross hole on top (Figure 7).
c. Drill two 3/32" (2 mm) pilot holes for the two faceplate screws , and then install the screws.
d. Measure off 1 ¼" (31 mm) from the end of the 1/8" (3 mm) drill bit, and mark with a marker or tape.
Cross hole at bottom
for hinges on right
Cross hole at top
for hinges on left
Looking at door from inside:
a. Using the 3/32" (2 mm) drill bit, drill two pilot holes in the (D) locations as marked in step
5. Pilot holes should be ½" deep.
b. Position the bar support ush with the edge of door (Figure 8) and secure in place with
two screws .
c. Hold new key lock in your left hand, and rotate the at blade.
d. With the deadbolt RETRACTED to a at, horizontal position, position the key lock on
the outside of the door, while inserting the at blade (tailpiece) horizontally through the
deadbolt crosshole (Figure 9) .
NOTE: The deadbolt crosshole will be either at the top or bottom of the unit, as
determined in steps 7a and 7b above. Make sure the tailpiece is at (or horizontal) when inserted through the
crosshole.
e. Install the two long lock bolts through the housing and screw them into the key lock. Snug up the lock bolts,
but do not fully tighten them at this point. Make sure the tailpiece does not stick out of the housing, with the
black plastic surface, more than 1/8". If it does, remove the lock and use a pair of pliers to break off the rst
segment of the tail piece. NOTE: Be very careful not to bend the rest of the tailpiece! Now replace the lock
assembly into the door.
CAUTION - DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE LOCK
BOLTS IN THE FOLLOWING STEP.
f. Position the housing over the six mounting holes. Using
the square, make sure the housing is square to the edge
of the door, and then tighten lock bolts.
g. Insert the key into the lock and check for correct
operation. You should be able to remove the key at both
the locked and unlocked positions. If the lock does not
function properly, the at blade (tailpiece) is most likely
not positioned correctly.

11. Door Jamb Completion
a. Locate and mark centerline of striker on door jamb.
b. For a new lock, locate the mark made in step 6d and drill a
1" diameter hole in door jamb for deadbolt (see step 4d). Use
a 1" hole saw that is 2" long, or a 1" spade bit. Be sure to keep
both bits level and straight through the door frame. Hole
should be 1" (25 mm) deep.
c. Position striker plate on door jamb. Mark holes on door
frame for the 3½” long power screws . (Figure 12).
d. Using the ¾" spade drill bit, drill a hole centered 1/8" in front
of these marks at a 30° angle, 3/8" deep on the deep side of
the hole and 1/8" deep on the shallow side of the hole to allow
for the bulges on the striker plate (Figure 13).
e. Mortise door jamb 3/32" (2.5 mm) deep for the striker. Hold striker plate in place with one hand and close the
door with the other. Make sure that deadbolt and security bar enter the striker plate at the same time. If they
do not, adjust holes and striker plate until they do.
f. Use 3/32" (2.5 mm) bit to drill pilot holes for screws .
Install striker plate and secure with both screws.
g. Close door and use lock key and twist knob to conrm
deadbolt and safety bolt enter striker without interference.
h. Using 5/32" (4 mm) 5" long bit, drill pilot holes at a 30° angle
for power screws . Holes should be 3½" inch (90 mm)
deep.
i. Check the torque adjustment on your drill to avoid
stripping out the screw heads, and install angled power
screws. Use a #2 Philips screw driver to screw the
remainder of the screws to avoid stripping the screw heads.
TIP: Do not force the screws in. If the screws get too tight before they are all the way in, either apply soap to
screw threads, or carefully remove the screw and re-drill the pilot hole and try again.
For steel door frames: If the door jamb is steel you will have to surface-mount the striker plate and drill 25/8"
holes in the steel frame at the point of the mounting holes in the striker plate to accommodate the dimples in
the striker plate. If there is no wood behind the steel frame, you will have to use ¼" x 1" at-head machine
screws with washers and nuts to mount the striker plate. You will need 2¼" x 1" at head machine screws, 2 5/16"
at washers, 2¼" at washers, 2¼" lock washers, and 2¼" nuts. Holding the ¼" screw in the hole, take a pair
of curved, long nose pliers and place the 5/16" washer on the screw, then the ¼" at washer, then the ¼" lock
washer, then the ¼" nut and tighten them down snug.

the “Protected by Ultimate Lock System” decal to the door or a nearby window.
“BE SAFE, LOCK UP, AND SET THE INSIDE SAFETY BUTTON WHEN YOU RETIRE”

Operation
Installing on French Doors
The Ultimate Lock™ utilizes two deadbolts that work in unison—a mortise deadbolt and a rim deadbolt. The
secondary rim deadbolt protrudes slightly across the door frame and makes it very easy to verify that your door is
locked. To lock your door, simply turn the twist knob counterclockwise 90° until it is horizontal. To unlock the
door, turn the twist knob clockwise 90° until it is vertical. For even more security, The Ultimate Lock™ features a
patented lockout feature that will prevent ANY key from opening the door. To engage the lockout pin, simply press
the button on the lock until it latches in place. You are now ultimately protected from intrusion!
Additional tools required: rotary cutting tool (Dremel) with metal cutting disc attachment
a. Install lock using regular directions. On French doors, the decorative cover will not t on the door. To x this
problem use a ½ inch chisel and cut into the putty that is blocking the decorative cover.
b. (Omit if threshold for striker plate is made of wood) For doors with metal thresholds, in order to allow room
for the grooves on the striker plate, use metal cutting disc to cut into the metal of the French door allowing
room for the striker plate to t.
French door Top of Door Install
c. Locate an area in the top corner of door where the lock will t. Put bar support in place with edge of support
along the edge of the door. Mark the holes where the screws enter the bar support. Using the drill bit that
comes with the lock, drill holes for the screws. Then attach bar support with screws
.
d. Use the rotary cutting tool with metal cutting attachment to cut the bottom of the
gear ¼" so that gear ts in the housing.
e. Hold the housing in place where the legs are touching the bar support equally on both
sides. Mark all the holes on one side of the housing. Remove housing and put gear,
security bar, and platform in place. Turn the gear and push the lock-out feature in hold
platform and housing together, align platform and housing so that the marks are in the
right place, and mark the correct three holes on the other side. Predrill the correct six
holes and install lock.
