lock cylinder (lock body)
The cylinder or lock body is the part of the door lock where you insert the key. When it is locked, the cylinder engages a series of spring-loaded pins to prevent the cylinder from turning. When you insert the key, the uneven edge pushes the pin up so that the height of the key fits that position in the lock body. Essentially, when the pin is moved to the correct position, it recognizes the correct key. This "opens" the cylinder, allowing the bolt to move and you can then open the door.
Bolts or latches
The lock engages the bolt inside the door. This piece of metal extends from the door into the frame and remains closed. There are two main styles of latches (or bolts) - spring bolts and deadbolts.
The key is rotated and inserted into the lock cylinder, and the anti-theft performance is poor. After the key is half-inserted, use 5 to 7 points of force to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise and continue to press the key into the lock. The locked key indicates that the lock cylinder is anti-theft. The performance is poor, and the lock cylinder is inserted into the lock cylinder smoothly in the semi-rotation state, indicating that the anti-theft effect is good.
Check whether the parts are complete
The first step after buying the door lock cylinder, we must first check the door lock we bought to see if all parts of the door lock are complete, whether it is a complete door lock cylinder, whether the door lock can be switched normally, not all Only halfway through the installation did I find that the door lock was missing a part, which made it impossible to open and close the lock.
Opening
Before opening the hole, we must first determine the installation height of the door lock. The installation height of the door lock should be moderate, otherwise it will be inconvenient to open and close. After determining the installation height, we can punch holes on the door according to the drawings. The size of the hole should be punched according to the size marked on the manual, neither too large nor too small. If it is too large, the lock body will not be able to cover the holes, which will greatly affect the appearance. If it is too small, the lock body cannot be installed.
Install the lock body
Install the lock body into the hole, and the position should be correct. First tighten the two self-tapping screws, then insert the locking rod into the square rod hole, and finally install the outermost handle part, and then tighten the remaining two self-tapping screws. Then use the same method to install the inner handle part of the door lock.
