To install the August Wi-Fi Smart Lock, follow these steps:
1. Prepare your existing deadbolt: Place the supplied adhesive strip to hold the keyed side of the lock in place. Press down the tape against the keyhole. Remove your existing thumbturn and back plate if applicable.
2. Prepare the Mounting plate: The Mounting Plate has adjustable xxxx -holes. Use the screws from the thumbturn and insert them through the xxxx -holes.
3. Optional: Determine if you need the Cover Plate: If your smart lock's mounting plate does not fully cover the hole left by the removed thumbturn, use the included Cover Plate.
4. Attach the Mounting Plate: If using the optional Cover Plate, place it over the deadbolt hole. Pass the mounting plate screws through the larger opening in the Cover Plate. Tighten the screws until the mounting plate is securely against the door.
5. Choose your adapter: Select the correct adapter from the Compatibility Chart or slide each adapter onto the tailpiece to find the right one. The correct adapter will have one of the teeth pointing up.
6. Attach the adapter: Place the adapter onto the tailpiece with the correct orientation. Make sure the non-teeth side of the adapter goes in through the tailpiece first.
7. Rotate to unlocked position and open wing latches: Rotate the thumbturn on your August Smart Lock all the way to the unlocked position. The direction you turn will depend on which side of the door your deadbolt is on.
8. Attach the August Smart Lock: Slide the smart lock over the tailpiece and attach it to the mounting plate. Clamp down both side wing latches to the mounting plate completely.
9. Remove the faceplate: Press down on the August logo located at the bottom of the faceplate. Grab the top of the faceplate and remove it.
10. Remove the battery tab: While holding the batteries in place, remove the plastic battery isolation tab. Ensure that the batteries are properly seated in their compartment.
11. Reattach the faceplate: Place the faceplate back onto the smart lock, with the August logo at the bottom.
