To determine the hand of the door, stand on the outside (secure side). If the hinges are on the left, it is a Left Hand (LH) door. If the hinges are on the right, it is a Right Hand (RH) door. Reverse bevels apply if the door swings towards you.
Most PDQ electronic locks, such as the GTS and MRS series, are designed to use standard non-rechargeable alkaline batteries for optimal performance.
