Assembling the NoLOX Door Lock Solution
Fig 1: The components in this package include one of each: NoLOX Locking Arm, Allen Screw and Pronged Tee Nut. You will need 1/8” and 7/32” drill bits plus a 3/32 Allen wrench, a center punch, a ball peen hammer and Phillips screwdriver.
Fig 2: NoLOX will work on either right or left hand door handles.
Fig 3: Remove the rubber cap on the lock lever. Position the NoLOX Locking Arm against the door handle plate. This is a critical stage. Make sure the NoLOX Locking Arm is level and snug against the lock lever. Mark the position of the Locking Arm with a sharp pencil. Unscrew the three plate screws and remove the plate.
Fig 4: Use a piece of wood to support the plate and make an indentation with a center punch where you will drill.
Fig 5: Drill a pilot hole with the 1/8” drill bit then follow with the 7/32” bit.
Fig 6 & 7: Assemble the NoLOX Locking Arm components to the plate. We recommend using a drop of 242 Loctite on the Allen screw.
Fig 8: Place the plate back onto the door. Make sure to align the door handle with the opening mechanism. Re-install the three plate screws.
Fig 9: Trim 1/8”- 3/16” off the lock lever rubber cap so the Locking Arm clears.
Fig 10: Completed project with Locking Arm in safe mode.
Fig 11: To unlock, simply pinch Locking Arm in a downward motion.
Fig 12: If necessary to make the NoLOX Locking Arm easier to lock/unlock, trim a small portion off the TOP of the Locking Arm as shown.
