Key Points to Consider When Installing a Smart Lock
1. Pay Attention to the Lock Body's Opening Direction
The lock body can be installed in different ways: inward opening, outward opening, left opening, or right opening.
This can be adjusted on the lock body itself.
Specific adjustment instructions can be found on the lock body.
There are two adjustment locking knobs on the lock body.
2. Secure the Fixing Screws
During installation, the accessory package includes four screw fixing posts and two long fixing screws.
- The four screw fixing posts include two thick posts.
- The bottom of the lock and the thin fixing posts are used to secure the lock body.
- No additional screws are required.
If the lock body is frequently knocked during use, it may become loose.
If set screws are not used, the lock may loosen, affecting your experience.
3. Adjust the Handle Properly
- To adjust the door lock handle, simply remove the wrench from the reset module.
- There is no need to turn the square steel screw.
- If the handle is replaced by tightening screws, an issue may arise where the latch extends when lifting the handle from the front panel, but unlocking fails even after confirming the fingerprint or password.
