You are a LIFE SAVER!! Thank you for this video, struggling for over an hour trying to get this off! Never would have figured this out without you! Thanks for stepping in for my dad🙏 on this project!
NEAT video! I know I would have been confused how to get that thing out, if I were to have tried to change the lock on my house. Thanks to this video, I now know how to do it!
The only thing I would say on your video which was quite informative as it would be very helpful to a lot of people if you would tell them what size Allen key is required to remove that setscrew
Sir thank you for this video ever seen one of these locks before and it threw me for a loop so the first thing I did better get on UA-cam and see if nobody knows about these locks once again thank you for the video I subscribed to your channel I will look forward to seeing more you videos have a nice day thank you!
So what deadbolt would you recommend to carry that is as universal that you can swap out the cylinders to different keyways? It’s really a great concept but theres definitely flaws. Would be nice to not have to carry a hundred different deadbolts with different finishes and keyways.
Thanks for this video. I need to remove an old old (1955) Lori single cylinder deadbolt on my door for which the key has been long gone. I got the cylinder out, but cannot get the inside thumb-turn out. There are no screws that I can see on the inside of the door. Any ideas?
Along with don't cross thread the cylinder, don't put it in crooked then crank down hard on the setscrew. I've had cylinders that are very difficult to get out and reinstall because some idiot seriously mangled the threads.
Omnia Mortice Cylinder installed in the Lori Deadbolt. Almost any Brand of Mortice cylinder can be installed in the Lori which makes the lock sometimes difficult to ID.

What's the size of Allen drive thanks
Yo, what size is that Allen? I swear I tried my whole collection and none of them fit right.
What if you don’t have the key?
Door is closed and key missed - what will do ?
How do you remove a rounded out set screw?
Different manufacturers make allen wrenches with rounded ends, which they claim can help remove rounded out screws.
I can't get to the face plate
Open the door?
If the door is closed or locked you must open the door to access the faceplate.
