We just bought our first house and we were wondering just how easy it would be, to replace the old deadbolt. Did NOT think it would be THIS easy!

Hello, I'm a maintenance man in Portland Maine who is super interested in becoming a locksmith. I am trying to learn all I can and I want you to know that your videos are great. Just your lockpicking videos alone helped me a lot.

I wanted to replace deadbolt on door for years. Couldn't figure out how to remove deadbolt. I asked everyone and no one knew how. Will purchase new deadbolt tomorrow. Thanks for the info.

Wow. that is a sneaky lock. Never would have guessed those Allen screws were holding it.

I've never dealt with these before but this is GOOD INFORMATION to put in my head for that one day that I DO run into one. Thank You!!

Thank you! Upgrading the locks in my older home. I would have never figured this one out on my own!

As a fellow locksmith, I find this lock used so much in my area. Cheap locks no doubt.

I prefer to use Schlage B660 and change the cylinder to match whatever keyway they need for the building.

Thanks. Very helpful demo

Thank you for the video.

Thanks for the follow up video,what happens when the head is stripped or rusted do you drill it out?

Thank you, sir!

Very slick .great video 😎🏖

Thank you. This is useful!

I get more calls for help with the Lori Double Cylinder locks than any other lock :-)

I have absolutely no use for this information yet I watched the whole video just in case it might come in handy one day lol

Thanks so much..dead on info...big help for me...

This video was a LIFE saver! I have an old home, so I am use to mortise locks and wild door locks! But, I was changing the locks for my work, it had me STUMPED! Thank you for this video!!!

This video saved my ass Thank you!!

Interesting. Never ran across this lock

I see this being useful for gates, where, with "normal" double-cylinder deadbolt (like a Schlage B662) could be defeated by just reaching between the bars and unscrewing.

What if you don’t have a key .

My dead bolt looks similar, but there is no hole for an allen key...

pry off the round plate. screws underneath.

Which type of lock would you prefer, instead?

I like to learn about old locks.

Hey Terry! Of course you have a channel! U are the man!

Do you have video for lemaar square flat double cylinder deadbolt?

You have the key> I lost the key. No solution for me?

Good to see how to take it apart, now I just need that wrench:) So, somebody changed the cylinders on this lock I have on my door, but now in the outside lock the key turns to a certain spot and then is gets stuck somewhere and cannot unlock the door. The interior side does not have a problem. Is that something I can fix myself?

The sticking cylinder either needs to be tightened or loosened one complete turn.

@@24hrMrLocksmith Thankyou so much for responding to my question. From the edge of the door to center of doorknob or center of deadbolt key hole, it measures 4". When I had been looking for a security set I believe it was one with a 5 inch backset. I had purchased a normal sized set which was way too short even with the option of setting it longer.

Does anyone know how to remove the locks that have metal plugs where the screws should be? I can't figure out a non-destructive way to remove the plugs.

You can gently pry them out with a small flathead screwdriver.

Hi I was wondering the gold part that you pulled out with the key, is it possible that can fall out due to wear and tear? I’m asking because I came home and put my key in and unlocked my door and that piece came out of my lock with the key! I freaked out and thought I was burglarized but I was told by maintenance it could just happen and I don’t believe it.

Hi Terry thanks so much for the excellent video (as all your videos are). Quick question: I’ve bought an old house that the previous owner at some point installed double cylinder Lori locks on all exterior doors. They’re a giant pain because if the deadbolt is locked and someone comes to that door you have to have a key to unlock it from the inside to let someone in. I want to convert it to a basic single cylinder lock with a simple knob in the inside for easy locking and unlocking without the key . Can I easily convert mine, and keep the same common house key? Or do I need to buy a whole new lock and get it rekeyed to the house keys?

The way you jiggle that key when it's deep inside that tight cylinder really gives me pause. Its always interesting to watch other gentlemen operate their equipment! Remember, always love your parents, dont run with sissors, drink milk, and brush your teeth. God bless

40+ yrs ago it was a great idea. A locksmith could take a Mortice cylinder in any keyway and install it into the Lori Deadbolt. Now we can use Commercial Grade deadbolts and swap out the key-in-knob cylinder.
