- with barely a scratch ;)
Please note: this area is locked down after hours with these accessory locks by security every night & opened every morning, however there is still a "escape door" on another side of building. Doing this would normally violate life safety code, however in this circumstance it has been approved for use since they are not locked during open hours and still have one exit door close by. Just clearing that up before the inevitable question comes in ;)
Thanks for watching! I think this makes my longest video so far.
Woo Hoo 😂
Hahaha, it was good thing that I double checked and read your description before saying crap about having 2 locking mechanism on the same door :-). I thought I saw myself working, no safety goggle(I wear glasses and too lazy to put another glasses on top of it) hands free (even though I have and was going to use keedex jig my spiral bit broke so ended up doing with drill and drill bits only) using the carbide deburring bit made it somewhat easier to clean up the edges later. But I agree that most of instructions or templates made me screw up more so I stopped using the templates on most installations except the Von Duprin door closers. It works great but often times I just use the template to mark/drill one then freehand on the other three screws with using the small level. Wish customers appreciate the details and willing to pay more so we can do more clean installations. Anyhow good job!
I'm glad i have not done very many without a router and the aluminum templates. Have done some with jigsaw and few with just a drill with 1/4" bit and lots of filling.
Nice work. Hand installs really force accuracy and other skills that aren't always developed when using specialty tools like routers and jigs. But it definitely makes you appreciate the ease and speed at which these kind of jobs can be done. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for the video Jason.
It's good to see what actually happened as it happens and not just edited.
Hope you collected the payment.
Thanks again
Catching up on a few older videos. We don't get to see much field work anymore. I love how you mortised out that space and measured evening without the template. I can tell you have done this a few times 😁.
Good work! I was a little surprised you did not use masking tape towards the end like you did in the beginning ......hopefully you painted over the little bit of scratches from the jig saw.
Sharpie works wonders on dark bronze
bro that was awesome thanks so much.. that's confidence and experience
Looked very fiddly. You did it old school.👍🏽 Our locksmiths use a router and a jig but they were cutting in a ton of strikes & mortise locks all the time so I guess that makes sense. 🍺😎✌
I always wondered how these were installed. Thanks.
Thanks for another great video Jason.
need dremmel I used a cut off wheel on the inner threshhold for a deadlock install the other day...great job
just not fond of them 🤷♂️ I’ve had enough cut off wheels zipping past my various body parts to be leery of using them
probably the one use I go to for it would be cutting off the stop when installing a rim mount electric strike but that’s a pretty rare use
Amazing job, well done,Thanks for putting it on video. Jeff
Another great video Jason!!!
Thank you for sharing!
Once again great work my friend👍👍😎😊👍👍👍
Nice Job
Hi Jason, I actually watched the full video. That is one insane install ! .... me ? I'd be so scared I would screw up that hole, or shatter the glass ( if you damaged the door I guess you are responsible to replace it - and that is BIG $$ ) .... damn... well you know what you are doing.... what an amazing job. Those special spacer things that you inserted ... you gotta do a video in the shop on those..... I've never seen them before.... are the specific to this type of lock install ? Anyway, amazing end result.... a job well done... I would have rewarded myself with a few beers after that job. Something like that - that insall... it's gotta be $200 to do that... where I'm from .. easily... with the time involved... crazy !
Lock Pickin' Magician it's definitely not a job left to someone without a few years cutting holes under their belt 😜 the cost was about double your figure!
Lock Pickin' Magician That is also a good idea for a video (mounting methods for Narrow Stile) I've been hassling my glass door guy to cut up a chunk out of a old door, I'm gonna send him a text now!
Beautiful work.
Watching the end part again, I'm assuming the whole thing is based on the lock that is inserted ( the actual lock cylinder ) this is what gives it the strength.... without it, anyone could bry that off the door ( the latch part ) interesting how the lock itself is what holds it all together and gives it that security ( strength ) You would have to pry the cylinder off and out, get get that latch you installed out of that door.
The mounting tabs, the screws he used to install the the body of the lock to the tabs and The faceplate in the cut out (that's why it can be important to have the right size face plate, some factory cut outs are larger then the standard size, of course in a fresh install it won't be the case), the hook in the frame(the do make a metal reinforcement plate for the frames to add some extra strength) and also the cylinders all help against prying the door open.
No shit? Install a lock with no cylinder; your door is unlocked and can easily be opened. Why is this surprising? A lock locks shit. If you install a lock without a locking mechanism (ie a cylinder and cam), of course it can be bypassed easily; that's kind of why people made locks...
Nice freehand work!!
Always enjoy your videos thanks for making them much appreciated. Would metal nibbler help to cut the holes in the door. You sweat your behind off was feeling bad for you. Carry around a wet face towel you can get a heat stroke sweating so much.
It gets pretty warm here in the south during summer :) but as miserable as it looks I am used to it mostly
Great video sir. Quick question . customer of mine wants to replace a dead latch with a adamritite hook lock . When do you recommend using. Hook lock instead of a dead bolt ? Thanks
thanks for the video Jason just to let you know I used a Dremel with a wheel for metal cutting and it work a lot faster than a jig saw the first time I did one I made a block for my jig saw to where I did not have to hold the jig saw out and not bonded up so you might want to try it sometime and see the difference between to two myself I like doing it with the Dremel just for your info may save you a lot of work in the future love your vedios and I also pickup some tricks to and if I see anything something your doing and mine might work for you I will let you know and also Happy New Year to you and your family
What size hole saw are you using for the mortise cylinder? I have three of these to do in a few days, hoping the jig arrives in time
Thank you another great vid
Hey Jeff thanks for sharing it was a good video!
Do you know where can I find those little mountain bridge?
I hope you charged 300.00 labor because you sure put that much time and effort in it. :)
Ross Henderson actually a bit more to do these :)
How often do you drop things right down the frame ??
what kind of lock is this, model and brand? this is a very thorough and interesting work, a perfect installation, sensational👍
That was a LSDA version of a Adams Rite Narrow Stile hookbolt or deadbolt
@@selock Thank you for answering👍, here in Brazil we don't have locks like this.
@@robsonmarcio7917 they are very very common here and not just on outside doors anymore. Everyone wants “open” interiors so we are seeing a huge surge of these styles of doors for interior use too! :)
Curious what you charge for this? Im not a locksmith, but I'd be at about $500 labor, at least.
as I recall this was about $700 total but that was only because we were doing it for a glass company that we work with often.
@@selock good to know, thanks!

Something about stingrays and HIV
Does Mississippi not require spin collars on mortise locks?
Diener Christi I didn’t think any US state required that.
SE Lock and Key Some parts of DFW in Texas require it. It may not be statewide.
Diener Christi huh, interesting. Must have been passed by local city council after burglary rash’s using that method maybe?
or local AHJ more than likely
SE Lock and Key I wouldn’t be surprised. There was actually a locksmith company that was sued because they didn’t install the spin collar. Some business got broken into by someone grabbing the lock with vice grips and snapping the set screw.
Two words. Aluminum blades.
Wd
You have drilled a second hole with wrong direction!
Tihomir Mackic no
Thanks for another great video Jason.
