How do I correctly set the backset for my Taymor 1948 Style Inspired Collection Round Rose Lever?

[DelKimberly]

Setting the backset correctly is essential for a smooth Taymor 1948 Style Inspired Collection Round Rose Lever installation. To adjust the backset, which is the distance from the door edge to the center of the spindle cam, follow these steps. First, you'll need to know your backset measurement. The most common backsets are 2-3/8 inches (60 mm) and 2-3/4 inches (70 mm). If you need to change the backset, here's how: Release the spindle cam by pulling it away from the faceplate. Make sure the spindle cam is sitting straight and centered in the bore hole. By doing this, you'll ensure your Taymor lever fits perfectly.
