How to fit the Omega letterplate
We recommend that an aperture of 259mm x 48mm be cut out of the door when fitting the Omega 12" letterplate.
When creating the aperture, it may be helpful to use the sleeve of the inside letterplate as a template to trace round with a pencil. A junior hacksaw can then be used to cut around the pencil line to produce the correct size cut-out. A hole can be drilled inside of the line to provide a starting point to cut.
Fit the plate with the open screw ports and nylon brush to the inside of the door, and the other plate to the outside.
