How to change the handing of your Schlage door lever
Monday, April 3, 2017
Changing the handing of your new Schlage door hardware can be completed in just a few easy steps.
When installing one of Schlage's levers with a curved design, you may find that you need to switch the handing. This happens when the lever points towards the door edge instead of away from it during installation. The good news is, Schlage makes this process quick and easy with just a few steps below.
1Locate the pin tool that came with your lock.

2Insert the tool into the small hole on the lever base and gently depress the retainer pin while pulling the lever away.

3Remove and exchange both levers.

4As you re-install, make sure the retainer pin lines up with the small hole on the lever base. You will hear the lever snap into place.

5Gently pull on the lever to ensure it's secure.

That's it! Changing the handing is easy as that.
