Door Cross Bore and Strike Plate Hole

$100

Elwood VIC, Australia

13th Sep 2022

So I bought a Schlage Smart lock, but hit a snag with its installation due to the orientation of the strike plate and lack of cross bore hole in the door. Considered giving it a go myself, but given my lack of expertise and appropriate tools, figured I’d better save myself from the drama should I bugger up the door. I’ve attached a few pictures that hopefully better describe the issues! Thanks for reading, and I’m looking forward to answering any questions - Due date: Flexible

The job required a few extra holes to be drilled before the lock could be installed. Handled it well without any fuss. Thanks, Anton!
