Yale No.1 Auto Deadlocking Nightlatch

Nightlatches are a common locking product found mainly on residential front doors. They ordinarily feature a single sprung latch locking point which engages automatically when the door is shut, securing the property.

These long established classic Yale No.1 Nightlatches feature an automatic deadlocking system and are designed for inward opening doors. with anti-carding and anti-bump protection, these 60mm nightlatches come supplied with Yale’s 1109 5 pin rim cylinder and 2 keys. Designed for doors with a thickness between 32mm – 57mm, these nightlatches operate with a key from outside and a lever handle from the inside.

The anti-thrust snib present on this nightlatch, offers protection from ‘latch slipping’. The snib is automatically depressed by the strike plate. When in the depressed position, internal components within the nightlatch physically prevent the main latch from being withdrawn into the lock case. This ensures the latch cannot be manipulated back into the lock case whilst the door is in the closed position.

With an internal lockable handle, and the anti thrust snib as mentioned above, the Yale No.1 nightlatch offers a good level of security.
