Yale PM562 High Security BS 5 Lever Mortice Dead Lock 76mm 3-inch - Polished Brass Finish - 2 Keys included

This was to replace a 20 + years '5 Lever Mortice Deadlock' and not much had changed in that time as far as design principles, but the dimensions and keyhole layout geometry were different in my case and this meant akward labour, if like me you're not a experienced fitter. Great kit (every thing you need ...screws, inside /outside keyhole escutcheons, template, lock and lockbox), although the lockbox seemed oversize, it agreed with the "NEW DOOR" instalation guide yale seem to have supplied (a list of the kit parts is not included ,you work out what you have is correct or not by the fitting guide and the parts you are replacing being like for like-ish .The length of lockbox slot=50mm yet the mortice lockbar is about 35mm (like a small foot in a large shoe) .. so the lockbox seemed to be universal and probably the same one is supplied with both the 67 mm and 80 mm door lock kits .Like for like installation ..newer doorlock replacements maybe would just slide straight in and the diementions be a better match than mine.. like shown in the helpful video 'yale' have made to show the general install (don't expect to walk away as clean clothed as the young lady or man though) .Tools i found myself using were ... philips head screw driver ,chisel and drill .My twenty year door lock i replaced is a 2.5 inch (67 mm) lock ,the replacement is also 67mm but needed an extra 12.5 mm depth ,for this next gen lock to be able to slide fully into the door frame and the keyhole is now 7 to 10 mm lower and further toward the centre of the door by 4mm ,also both sides of the new lock have a rectangular metal plates welded in place over the lock mechanism ,for added lock tamper proof protection i believe ,which required chesil woodwork to shoehorn this extra clearance and allow the lock into the door slot .Many many hours later and wood shaving all cleared away ,all the new parts fitted + screwed inplace i'm finnished .Hmm the new lock feels smooth and has slick pricise bolt throw as the as the key is turned .A SATISFYING JOB DONE ,A GOOD PURCHASE .

Secure and fairly simple to install. Though I have fitted a few in the past

A good quality product; as you would expect from Yale. It would be worth saying that if you are fitting a lock of this type you should be confident of your DIY skills in drilling wood and using a chisel accurately. A step by step instruction leaflet is included with a clear guide as to where to drill holes prior to chiselling out the recess for the lock. Cover and plates (in brass) for the key are also included as well a brass cover plate for the lock itself. The mechanism is robust and operates smoothly. I would definitely buy this type of lock if I required one in the future.

Didn’t fit my lock so had to go to the local iron mongers and paid a staggering £80. Annoying but there we are !

Replacement for old 5 lever lock. Complies with insurance companies for buildings insurance.

Great well made product, easy to fit, feels very secure

I bought this as a direct replacement for an older version and this one works perfectly. It fit exactly in the previous cavity of the door. It feels really solid, the key turns easily and I can see it lasting a good long while. Nothing to complain about, stick with Yale and you will get a reliable lock

Very sturdy lock however to big for my needs

Very good lock,well made with a good finish Worth buying

For an American who loves locksport, it's very nice to be able to affordably get these locks. Excellently made, good challenge. And delivered to me early (your mileage may vary).

Will buy this again.
