Istruzioni per l'installazione
Before you begin, ensure your door is between 3/4" and 1-1/8" thick. The installation requires drilling three 1/2" holes with universal spacing to fit 1-3/4", 1-1/2", and 3" hole patterns.

Installazione passo dopo passo:
- Prepara la porta: Mark the locations for three 1/2" holes on your storm or screen door. Ensure the spacing matches one of the universal patterns (1-3/4", 1-1/2", or 3") for the knob assembly.
- Fori di perforazione: Carefully drill the three 1/2" holes through the door at the marked locations.
- Install Knob Assembly: Insert the exterior keyed knob and the interior lever assembly through the drilled holes. Ensure the spindle aligns correctly between both parts.
- Assicurare l'assemblaggio: Use the provided screws to fasten the interior and exterior components together. Tighten securely, but do not overtighten to avoid damaging the door or the lock mechanism.
- Installare la piastra di battuta: Position the strike plate on the door frame, aligning it with the latch bolt when the door is closed. Mark the screw holes and the outline of the latch.
- Mount Strike Plate: Drill pilot holes for the strike plate screws if necessary, then attach the strike plate to the door frame using the provided screws.
- Operazione di prova: Close the door and test the latching mechanism. Ensure the knob turns smoothly and the latch engages properly with the strike plate. Test the key operation from the exterior.

Manutenzione
To ensure the long-term performance and appearance of your Wright VK670 knob, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Pulizia: Clean the knob and lever surfaces periodically with a soft, damp panno. Evitare detergenti abrasivi, solventi o prodotti chimici aggressivi, poiché possono danneggiare la finitura.
- Lubrificazione: If the key mechanism or latch bolt becomes stiff, apply a small amount of graphite lubricant or a silicone-based spray lubricant specifically designed for locks. Do not use oil-based lubricants, as they can attract dirt and dust.
- Serraggio: Periodically check all mounting screws and tighten them if they have become loose. Do not overtighten.
- Ispezione: Inspect the knob and latch for any signs of wear or damage. If any components are damaged, consider replacing the unit to maintain security and functionality.
