How do I install a 82-055 Acorn Sliding Door Handle Set.

I cant get the old lock out and the spring keep popping out of the groves.

Are there any videos how to install

Thanks
Sandy

Thanks for posting! It should be fairly easy to install, though removing the inside hook of the lock could be a little tricky. Just try to ease it out gently. The hole in the patio rail might be elongated to help remove the hook. Also, the spring will pop out if you mishandle the lock too much. Once the handle installed, the spring should stay in place.

Can you please email me the installation video? The latch does not get hooked on other side.

We unfortunately do not have an installation video for this handle. The 82-055 installs as described in Dave's post above.
