Jimmy Proof Lock Installation
We recommend the Ilco Jimmy Proof Lock as a popular and effective way to improve your home security. Here’s how the installation process works:
Gather essential tools: hammer, center punch, hole saw, drill, screwdriver, straightedge, masking tape, and pliers.
Define the lock placement and mark the door frame using either a mortise strike or surface mount.
Mark the spot and drill a hole to fit the lock cylinder.
Mark the screw locations and drill holes for mounting.
Measure the door thickness to determine the proper length for the tailpiece and screws. Use pliers to cut screws to the correct length if necessary.
Insert the cylinder and align it with the backplate, then attach it securely with mounting screws.
Mount the deadbolt using screws and a screwdriver.
Finally, attach the strike plate on the door frame side.
While this installation can be done yourself, if you need expert assistance, contact The Lock Doc for professional help.
