Configuració i instal·lació
The Defiant Vancouver Handleset is designed for easy installation on most standard doors. A Phillips screwdriver is the primary tool needed.
Pas 1: prepareu la porta
Ensure your door has standard bore holes. The latch features an EZ fit design to accommodate both 2-3/8 inch (60mm) or 2-3/4 inch (70mm) backsets. Adjust the latch as needed by twisting the housing.

Imatge 1: View of the Defiant Vancouver handleset components, showing the interior knob, the latch mechanism installed in a door edge, and a portion of the exterior pull handle. This illustrates how the latch fits into the door and connects to the interior knob and exterior handle.
Pas 2: instal·leu el pestell
Insert the latch mechanism into the edge bore hole of the door. Ensure the bevel of the latch bolt faces the door frame. Secure the latch with the provided screws. The latch faceplate can be used as a radius faceplate or converted to a drive-in style if required.
Step 3: Install the Exterior Handleset
Position the exterior handleset assembly on the outside of the door, aligning the spindle through the latch mechanism. Ensure the deadbolt mechanism aligns with the upper bore hole.
Step 4: Install the Interior Knob
Place the interior knob assembly on the inside of the door, aligning it with the exterior handleset and the latch spindle. Secure the interior and exterior components using the long mounting screws provided. Tighten screws evenly to prevent binding.
Pas 5: instal·leu la placa de cop
Close the door and mark the position of the latch bolt and deadbolt on the door frame. Chisel out a shallow recess for the strike plate and secure it with the provided screws. Ensure the door closes smoothly and latches securely.
Step 6: Test Operation
Test the handleset by opening and closing the door, and locking/unlocking the deadbolt and latch from both the interior and exterior. Ensure smooth operation without excessive force.
Funcionament

- Des de l'exterior: Insert the key into the deadbolt cylinder and turn to extend the deadbolt. Turn the key back to the vertical position and remove. The lower handle may also have a locking mechanism depending on the specific model.
- Des de l'interior: Rotate the thumb turn on the interior deadbolt to extend the deadbolt. For the knob, ensure it is in the locked position (if applicable, usually by pressing a button or turning a small knob on the interior knob).

Manteniment

- Inspecció: Regularly check all screws and mounting hardware for tightness. Tighten any loose screws to prevent wobbling or misalignment.
