Can't seem to get lever arm to seat on mounting base. Suspect tang off keyed lock is not engaging deep enough on 1.5" thick door. Seems if the slot was deeper or tang shorter it would fit. Ideas?

It's tough to say. The 82-081 was only made for doors that are 1-3/8" thick. is the key lock tail the only thing not engaging? If so, you may want to consider our 82-310. This comes with an extra long tail so that you can cut it down to whatever size you need, but that also means it could theoretically work on thicker than normal doors, too.

Great! Glad to hear you got it to work. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Cut approx. 1/4? off lock tail with hack saw. That?s all it took to seat the handles to the door.
Good to go now!
Thanks.
