  2. Mark the positions for the handle and latch on the door using a pencil.
  3. Install the latch mechanism on the edge of the door according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  4. Attach one side of the handle to the door using the provided screws.
  5. Insert the spindle through the latch mechanism and attach the other side of the handle to the door.
