How to Perform Auto-Handing 
for Your Lock

Your new EMBASSY

non-handed and will work 

on left-handed or right-

handed doors. During 

the initial installation and 

after a factory reset, your 

EMBASSY

®

 door lock will 

automatically detect (based 

on where the bolt finds 

room to move) whether 

you have installed it on 

a left- or a right-handed 

door (see page 16).
