Yale night latch

Nov 29, 2010 3 Replies

Hi there



My yale nightlatch lock jammed in the upside down position and wouldnt move (the keyhole I mean)



I bought a new cylinder and cut the bar too short.



Its a YALE b-1109-sc type



My old one was a brass one and the bar was removeable but i cannot work out how to remove the bar from the new one so that i can use the old bar.



Is it possible of is it fixed?



I asked yale but got no replies. Poor customer service.



Any help appreciated.


There is usually a circlip around the back of the body - remove that and the bar should come out.

Having said that they're only about £8 so why not just buy another?

that would get me 2 pints and a wee dram!

Good man!!!! It is most important to get things in the correct order.
