bracket (Figure 1) or fits around the base of the handle (Figure
2). An adhesive “trim lock” is positioned about halfway down.
The bottom of the trim is held in place by either an adhesive
trim lock, or a trim lock with two prongs inserted into a hole on
the face of the door.
TO REMOVE TRIM:
1. Remove trim by gently pulling trim lock areas out and
away from door.
2. When trim is free from door, slide the trim straight down
