Drill Holes
Use a mullion or jamb to drill holes as per dimensions on the door.
Install Strike

For double doors, you should use the additional double-door strike instead of the regular one. If the cylinder is included with the device, then you need to drill a hole for the cylinder or bracket. Insert the cylinder and cylinder roller and place the bracket plate. Fix the cylinder mounting screws in place. Cut the mounting screws and tailpiece to the required thickness and fasten them.

Install the end cap bracket on the device and screw it on the door. Fasten all screws or bolt.
Install All Covers
