Product Information

Full details

The Yale Deadlocking Standard Nightlatch is designed for homeowners and tenants seeking a reliable, self-locking security solution for timber entrance doors. Its primary benefit is the automatic latching mechanism that secures your door the moment it closes, providing peace of mind with minimal effort. However, users should note that because it relies on a rim cylinder, it is best suited for doors where manual deadlocking via a key is acceptable for maximum security.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does this lock automatically lock every time I close the door?

Yes, the spring-loaded latch bolt engages automatically as soon as the door frame contacts the latch.

Can I lock this from the inside without a key?

Yes, you can use the integrated snib button to deadlock the latch from the inside.

Is this suitable for UPVC doors?

No, this is specifically designed for timber doors.

How many keys are included?

The product typically comes with a set of two standard keys.

Can I replace the cylinder later?

Yes, because it uses a standard rim cylinder, the exterior part of the lock can be replaced with a compatible replacement rim cylinder if keys are lost.

Troubleshooting

The key feels stiff when operating the lock

Check that the door is correctly aligned with the frame; if the door has warped, the latch may be under pressure. Adjust the keep plate or hinge side if necessary.

The latch does not retract fully

Ensure the snib is in the correct 'open' position and check for any debris inside the strike plate recess.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Automatic locking provides immediate security upon closing
  • Internal deadlocking feature adds an extra layer of protection
  • Snib function allows for temporary latch hold-back
  • Trusted brand reputation for door hardware

Cons

  • Requires a key for external access at all times
  • Not suitable for use on doors that swing outwards
  • Relies on standard rim cylinder security levels

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install this lock, ensure your door is a standard inward-opening timber door. You will need a drill, screwdriver, and a chisel to recess the strike plate if required. The lock is compatible with doors between 32mm and 57mm thick. To maintain the mechanism, apply a light silicone-based lubricant to the latch bolt once every six months. Avoid using heavy oils or grease, as these can attract dust and grime which may impede the movement of the internal springs.
