Questions about this item
Does my door need a 2 1/2 in backset for the 900 series latch to fit?
Yes, the 900 series spring latch is built for a 2 1/2 in backset, so the door must be pre-drilled to that dimension for the bolt to align with the strike plate.
Will the 100-NL deadlocking latch release if I keep my existing thumb-turn cylinder?
The 100-NL deadlocking latch holds the bolt retracted when the hold-back is engaged, and it operates with the supplied thumb-turn handle; an existing cylinder is not required for the hold-back function.
How do I confirm the 16 user-code limit is active after programming the keypad?
The keypad accepts only one user code, so after entering a code the latch should retract once; a second different code will be rejected, confirming the single-code limit is enforced.
