Step 1:
Prepare existing deadbolt.
Affix the supplied adhesive strip over the key hole,
securing it to the exterior side of your door. This should
hold the key hole in place when you remove the thumblatch on the inside of the door.
On some doors, such as those with glossy paint, the
included tape may not be strong enough. In this case you
should apply additional stronger tape to ensure that the
key hole stays in place. Use caution. Some types of tape,
such as duct tape, may damage the paint on certain types
of doors.
Step 2:
Remove your existing thumb-latch.
Position your thumb-latch so that you can unscrew the
existing screws on your deadbolt.
Remove the screws entirely from the deadbolt and keep
them to assist in the next step.
After removing the screws, be sure to unlock your
deadbolt before removing the thumb-latch.
Your thumb-latch may include an additional back plate
underneath it. If so, remove the back plate. Use the back
plate and the longer screws for the next step.
Step 3:
Select the correct mounting plate and adapter.
If you know the brand of your deadbolt, please select the
correct mounting plate and adapter from the Compatibility
Chart on the next page, and then
go to Step 4 (page 18).
If not, go to Step 3a (page 16) to find the correct mounting
plate and adapter.
If your tailpiece is in a vertical position when the door is
unlocked, you will need to remove the keyhole and rotate it
so the tailpiece is in a horizontal position before you install.
Step 3a:
Select the correct mounting plate.
Insert the existing screws in the thumb-latch to help you
choose the correct mounting plate. If there was a back
plate under your thumb-latch, insert the screws into this
back plate instead of the thumb-latch.
Slide the mounting plates onto the screws one at a time
until you find a mounting plate that allows the screws to fit
straight through the holes.
Step 4:
Position the mounting plate.
Remove the backing from the 4 rubber bumpers and
place them on the back side of the mounting plate (the
side that does not show a number).
Rotate the mounting plate so the 4 rubber bumpers are
between the mounting plate and the door. Remove the
screws from the thumb-latch and use them to install the
mounting plate over the existing deadbolt tail piece.
Moderately tighten the screws until the mounting plate
is settled against the door. Over-tightening can deform
the mounting plate and interfere with the operation of
the lock.
Step 5:
Position adapter and align mounting plate.
Remove the tape from the key hole, and use your
key to turn your deadbolt to the fully unlocked position.
If your lock was not in the Compatibility Chart, select the
adapter that fits your tail piece. To do this, slide each
adapter onto the tail piece. The correct adapter will have
the small nub pointing up.
Place the correct adapter onto the tail piece with
the small nub pointing up. Tighten the screws until they
are moderately tight. Do not over-tighten. Over-tightening can deform the mounting plate and interfere with the operation of the lock.
Step 6:
Attach the August Smart Lock.
Insert the adapter into the back of the August Smart Lock,
then position the August Smart Lock with the August name
badge at the top.
Pull out both side wing latches. Slide the August
Smart Lock over tail piece and attach to mounting plate.
Make sure the back of the lock is flush with the door.
To secure the August Smart Lock, clamp down both side
wing latches to the mounting plate completely.
If the latches are difficult to clamp down, then go back
to Step 5C and ensure that the screws have not been
over-tightened. You may need to loosen them slightly.
Step 7:
Remove battery tab.
Press down on the August logo located at the bottom
of the face plate. The top of the face plate will tilt
outward. Grab the face plate and remove.
Holding batteries in place, remove the plastic
battery isolation tab. Make sure that the battery is
properly seated in its compartment.
Place the face plate back onto the August Smart
Lock. Make sure the August logo is located along the
bottom of the face plate. The face plate attaches with
magnets straight onto the August Smart Lock.
