Picked this lock and was able to install it entirely because of your video. Can't thank you enough!

Hey that's great to hear. So glad I could help. Thanks for watching.

Very nice work sir. Great job of step by step instruction. Thank you !!

@askillthatpays 11 месяцев назад

I'm glad you enjoyed it. This particular model is tricky and trying to make a video isn't always easy due to location/time etc. This was the third try and I got it. Thanks for watching

Great video dude thanks!!

I'm glad you found it helpful. It's rare to find anyone willing to do these as they can be tricky, so I'm happy to pass on some knowledge. Thanks for watching.

this is THE video! terrific! my knob does not turn easy at all. when i attach the outside trim, the locking knob binds.... what to do?

@mikehardie3630 6 дней назад

I called emtek and they suggested that the drive spindle was too long and to file it down. no help.

@askillthatpays 6 дней назад

That's not uncommon and I would recommend that same thing. I've had to grind these down when they bind. Also, there's a locking ring for each side of the lock and I only use one of them. Lastly it's almost always something not quite in alignment. Make the holes as big as possible so that lock can find its happy place without binding or forcing anything. Thanks for watching.

The gold disks also have an indent or notch. If you line it up with the little black bar and reverse screw the recessed screw above the gold button it locks in the mechanism and aids in alignment/smooth action. Cheers.

That's a great tip that only someone who truly knows what they're doing could share. Thanks for passing that along. I've done these enough now that they don't perplex me, but the the first couple I tried were frustrating. Thanks for watching and commenting. I appreciate that.

Thanks for the great video! I think this is what I need. I have interior folding French Doors that I need to be able to secure closed but also able to open from both sides. Do you know if this will work with a thumb turn on both sides? Does Emtek even sell it with a thumb turn on both sides?

@askillthatpays 4 дня назад

Hmm. not sure I would recommend that as these are very challenging to install and the process of opening them will be precarious. I would go to the sliding door hardware section of the depot and look at the various types of products available. You'll have to improvise something but there are a lot of options to choose from and you might find one that works. Good luck and thanks for watching

I want my contractor to install these we didn’t know we wanted these till after the pocket doors were installed and they said they are not sure they can do it that they would normally have the door manufacturers bore these holes out for them. Is that typical or is this an onsite thing typical as well? And if this can be done onsite what kind of company do I call to do these for me?

@askillthatpays 2 месяца назад

I've worked on doors for 15 years and I've never had an experience where the door manufacturer would do such a thing. Here's why. The homeowner buys the door online, in a store like Home Depot or from a door supplier. Then they buy the hardware from someplace else. They aren't going to go back to the door manufacturer, return the door and ask to have the hardware installed in a specific location. When people call me they say, "Pete, I have this door and that lock, can you do it?" And of course I say yes. That's why my phone never stops ringing. Call local door installers and locksmiths in your area. I can't be the ONLY guy who knows how to do this. Thanks for watching.

Great video. Just curious what brand lock mortiser that is and where you got it ?

@askillthatpays 4 месяца назад

the brand is Mophorn and found it on amazon. Here's a link to a complete video about how to set it up and use it. Highly recommend it. Thanks for watching. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-PM45yInMJWg.html

I'm a homeowner trying to get my lock working. Contractor mortised everything just fine, but Emtek had originally send the wrong length thumbturn so I had to get it warrantied and I'm dealing with it from here. So it seems like there's a lot of play in the thumbturn; I can wiggle it around and even rotate it backwards nearly 360 degrees until the cylinder bar is hitting the mechanism the wrong way round. Looking at the lock mechanism it doesn't *seem* like there's anything that prevents this, but is that what you found too?

@askillthatpays Месяц назад

These are the most challenging of all locks I've death with, but I've never experienced that particular issue. Any kind of thumb turn issue for me was solved by either making the hole a little bigger to eliminate any obstructions. Realigning the lock because if it's slightly crooked it won't work, or making sure that piece that holds the thumb turn is firmly aligned with the notch AND you only have it on one side of the lock, not both. Good luck and thanks for watching.
