How to Use the SECURIT S1532 Chrome Door Bolt

Introduction

The SECURIT S1532 Chrome Door Bolt is a security accessory designed to secure doors. This guide will provide you with easy-to-follow instructions for installation and usage.

Tools Required

• Drill
• Screwdriver
• Measuring tape
• Pencil
• Screws (usually included with the product)

Installation Instructions

Step 1: Choose the Installation Position

• Decide where you want to place the door bolt on your door. It is usually installed near the edge of the door for easy access.
• Use the measuring tape to ensure it is placed at a suitable height and aligned properly.

Step 2: Mark the Drill Points

• Hold the door bolt against the door in the position you’ve chosen.
• Using a pencil, mark the positions through the holes on the body of the door bolt where screws will go.

Step 3: Drill Pilot Holes

• Using the drill, create pilot holes on the marked points. This will make it easier to insert the screws and prevent the wood from splitting.

Step 4: Attach the Door Bolt

• Align the door bolt with the drilled holes.
• Use the screwdriver to secure the door bolt onto the door with the screws.
• Ensure it is tightly fixed and check for stability.

Step 5: Test the Door Bolt

• Slide the bolt back and forth to ensure it moves smoothly.
• Check that the bolt aligns with the strike plate (if applicable) and that the door is securely held when the bolt is engaged.

Usage Instructions

• To lock the door, slide the bolt into the strike plate or receiver.
• To unlock, slide the bolt back to its original position.

Safety Tips

• Ensure the bolt is fully engaged when locking for maximum security.
• Regularly check the screws for any signs of loosening and tighten if necessary.

Troubleshooting

• If the bolt does not slide smoothly, check for any obstructions or misalignment.
• If the door bolt becomes loose, re-tighten the screws or consider using longer screws for added security.
