1. Use the template to drill the holes appropriately. If there is existing deadbolt hole it may be used. Make sure all parts line up properly.
 
2. Put the front part of the IHK JF1 (sliding front) into the hole with wires first.

3. Put back plate on door. Align with front deadbolt part. Use long bolts to join the back plate and the front deadbolt assembly together. Hand tighten, make sure that front deadbolt assembly is straight and in proper position.
 
4. Next put the back assembly on to see if all parts align properly. If they align, then use screws to ecure the back plate to the door.

5. Next, align back assembly onto the back plate. When in proper position use small screws to secure back assembly to back plate.
 
6. Then, align catch plate to the wall that is flush with the door. Hold in position and test the deadbolt by turning the lock in and out. Make sure the deadbolts engage into the catch plate smoothly. Finally screw the catch plate into the wall in proper place and height.

7. Make sure that you leave a 4.0mm to 5.0mm space between the catch plate and the back assembly unit. This will allow clearance for the door to be opened and closed without any interference.
