I have recently changed the barrel on a Yale lock (with the remainder
of the lock components remaining in place). However, since putting everything back together, when the door shuts the bolt does not travel fully into the keeper because of some resistance. The keeper hasn't been touched and the lock fits well on the door, so I can't see what has changed to create this issue. I removed the barrel completely (with the long screws and fixing plate which holds it in place) and re- attached the lock, and the same happens, so I can't see it's related to replacing the barrel in any way. When the door is open the bolt moves freely. It's almost as if the keeper is too close to the rebate, but I'm fairly sure the problem wasn't there originally. Any ideas? |
