This Yale G2000 series gearbox features the unique configuration of a hook above the latch. It is designed to be used with Yale cylinders only and you may find that cylinders from other brands will not operate this lock.
These gearboxes feature a snib which is turned by a cam when the key is opened. Yale advises the use of Yale cylinders as they feature a significantly larger cam.
The Yale G2000 lock features a very distinctive layout where the hook is positioned above the latch. Yale no longer makes these locks so the best solution is often a replacement gearbox.
If you are replacing a gearbox, it is very likely that the gearbox fitted to your lock is yellow or gold in colour. The locks were originally made in yellow chromate, but replacements, whether genuine or copy, are all silver in colour.
G2000 gearboxes measure 194mm high by 52mm wide. The latch is 30mm high and there is 55mm from the top of the latch to the bottom of the hook.
