Yale 77 Traditional Non Deadlocking Nightlatch

Product Information

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.

This Yale 77 traditional non deadlocking nightlatch features the popular styling of traditional rim nightlatches. The design reflects that of the most popular nightlatches on the market and the classic look compliments properties with a traditional look such as Victorian or Georgian homes. These nightlatches fix directly to the door with the supplied fixings. Also supplied in a 5 pin rim cylinder and 2 keys. Available in a wide range of cylinder and case finishes.

This nightlatch features a means of mechanical holdback which allows the sprung latch bolt to be physically retained within the body of the nightlatch. When this feature is activated, the latch will not engage when the door closes, therefore the door will not be secured. It is important to consider if this is a feature that is desirable for the application in question as in some circumstances the possibility of the door not being secured may cause issues. Also, some mechanical holdback devices also allow the latch to be secured in the locked position preventing access even when a key is used from outside deadlocking the door. It should also be considered if this is suitable for the application.

Key operated from the outside and a thumb turn operation from the inside.
