How to Properly Set the Backset on a Taymor 1948 Round Rose Lever?

[StephanieAnn]

Setting the backset correctly is key for a smooth installation of your Taymor 1948 Style Inspired Collection Round Rose Lever. Here's how to do it: First, identify your backset measurement. The backset is the distance from the door edge to the center of the spindle cam and is commonly either 2-3/8" (60 mm) or 2-3/4" (70 mm). If you need to adjust the backset, follow these steps: Carefully pull the spindle cam away from the faceplate to release it. Make sure the spindle cam is sitting straight and centered in the bore hole. By following these simple steps, you can ensure a perfect fit for your Taymor lever.
