CAUTION

DO NOT DRILL LOCK SECTION OR INSTALL LOCK ON DOORS WITH OPENERS. THE DOOR AND/ OR OPENER MAY BE DAMAGED IF THE OPENER IS USED WHILE THE DOOR IS LOCKED.

(4)1/8” holes through the section. Flip the section over, face up. With the section face up, enlarge the (3) bottom holes to 3/4” diameter and the top hole to 1-1/4” diameter, pay close attention not to drill completely through section into center stile.
