#1 Door mechanicals installation

Post by Heronscourt » Tue Nov 23, 2021 8:40 pm

Hi, I'm about to start installation of the door internals but am a bit unclear about at which stage the door catch mechanism goes on. I assume that the external door handle has to be fitted first but how much of the rest of the door catch and internal handle and link need to go in before the frame and regulator?
I've watched several videos and the order of frame and regulator installation varies but non are clear about the door catch mechanism.
Hope someone can advise!!
