ASTRON ARCHITECTURAL RANGE DOOR FURNITURE FITTING INSTRUCTIONS
These handles are designed to be fixed to door with through bolts. We recommend using the Zanda tubular latch
which is designed to accept the fixings and comes with an adjustable strike plate. (Please note this Architectural
Range Door Furniture is not compatible with locks or latches with more than 45˚ travel)
Latch
1.
Measure the door thickness and mark the centre at desired height for latch.
2.
Mark the face of door each side for drilling of spindle and screw holes.
Note:
The spindle hole will need to be centred at 60mm from the door edge (backset).
3.
Drill a 25mm (1”) hole through door edge.
4.
Note:
It is important to drill this hole square.
5.
Drill a 25mm (1”) spindle hole through door face.
6.
Note:
For clean cut-outs, drill from both sides, meeting in the middle of door.
7.
Drill 4.5mm holes for through bolts. Enlarge first 5mm of through hole to 7.5mm to accept lugs on plates.
8.
Remove any loose sawdust and insert latch. Scribe around face, remove, and then chisel out recess to enable
latch to sit flush with door edge.
9.
Insert latch and fasten with screws supplied.
10.
Gently close door against frame and mark latch position for fitting of strike plate. Router or chisel so plate fits
flush, allowing for plastic recess box if required.
Handles
1.
With latch fitted to door, ensure all holes line up prior to fitting door handles.
2.
Loosen grub screw on bottom of applicable lever plate and remove internal mounting plate.
3.
Fit mounting plate to door and pass bolts through mounting holes. The mounting bolts will pass through the
latch body and fix into the female side of handle set. Shorten bolts if necessary to suit door thickness. The
overall length of the thru-bolts should be 4-8mm more than door thickness.
4.
Install the split spindle with an even amount protruding each side of the door.
Note:
When positioning spindle, ensure that it will allow the grub screws on the levers to tighten up on grooved face
of Spindle.
5.
Fit remaining lever onto mounting plate and fix by tightening grubscrew on bottom of plate
6.
Tighten the grub screws on levers onto the spindle each side of door.
Note:
The grub screws may need a re-tighten after a bedding-in period. An application of Locktite will prevent grub
screws from loosening off
7.
Test door and if necessary adjust strike tongue to take up any rattle.
