Door Lock Installation And Cylinder Handling

The cylinder in this deadbolt is rekeyable via a set screw cylinder release mechanism, which allows the core to be removed and rekeyed without discarding the entire lock body. This mechanism gives locksmiths and installers a defined method to change keying while retaining the existing hardware in the door. Cylinder lengths of 15/16 inch, 1-3/8 inch, or 1-5/8 inch are specified, providing size options to match different door thicknesses or hardware stackups that accept these cylinder dimensions. A barrel diameter of 7/8 inch is used, which aligns with preps designed for this cylinder size so the lock can seat properly in the hole. The standard function allows the key to be removable in either the locked or unlocked position, giving users flexibility in how the key is managed during operation.

Using This Olympus N Series Deadbolt In The Field
