FAQs

Can I get extra keys made?

Yes, you can use the provided personal ownership card to authorize the reproduction of additional keys at an authorized Yale locksmith.

Will this lock fit a 40 mm door?

No, this specific model is designed for a door thickness of 33 to 37 mm. It will not fit doors outside of this range.

Does it come with a strike plate?

The set includes the lock, keg, installation template, rosette, and necessary screws for mounting.

Is the finish weather-resistant?

The lock is designed for durability; however, for longevity in extreme weather, regular maintenance and cleaning are recommended.

What is the purpose of the internal button?

The internal button provides a convenient way to open the lock from the inside without requiring a key.

Troubleshooting

Key is difficult to insert or turn

Check for debris inside the keyway or ensure the door is not misaligned, causing pressure on the bolt. Apply a small amount of graphite powder if needed.

Lock feels loose after installation

Verify that all mounting screws are tightened correctly and that the rosette is flush against the door surface.

Cannot unlock from the inside

Ensure the internal button mechanism is fully depressed or released, and check that the door is not warped, which may cause the bolt to bind in the strike plate.
