What to do if the bolt will not deadlock on my Yale door lock?
- JJeffrey CaseAug 1, 2025
If the bolt on your Yale door lock won't deadlock, first check if there's enough space for the bolt in the strike-side jamb. If not, make the bolt pocket deeper. Also, see if the bolt and strike are aligned correctly. To check this, open the door and move the bolt in and out. If it moves smoothly, the strike alignment is the problem.
