This was a replacement for an old style Nightlarch for me, so the install was very easy.
The only thing to be aware of with this (and most Yale style latch locks) you will need a hacksaw/piercing saw or dremmel to cut the pin down for the depth of your door… And for goodness sakes measure right the first time!
The new addition of the roller latch when the door is unlocked is a nice feature.
Would recommend these over the “normal” Yale any day of the week, even with the higher price tag, you do get what you pay for in this instance.

This is the best lock ever, because it’s impossible to lock yourself out, due to needing to turn the key to lock the door on your way out.
The construction and quality is very good – I’ve had one in another flat for 20 years – and I bought this one as I moved house and missed the functionality of the one I had before (which still works perfectly smoothly after such a long time).

Brilliant having a Yale lock that makes it impossible for us to lock ourselves out. Suits our requirements really well.
On fitting, I had to adjust the spacing of the keep a bit in order to get the roller catch to work correctly. Too narrow a gap between the latch and the keep and roller will not work. It is not a big problem though, in my case, a couple of millimeters, 2 strips of cardboard off a cornflakes box did the trick.
I put a handle on the inside of the door as well, as trying to use the handle on the latch to pull the door open was awkward, could only use 2 fingers to grip it.
A downside is that it has no deadlock capability, we have a mortice lock in the door as well, so not an issue for us.
Would not rely on it as the only means of door security

Great yale lock,very secure and you can’t lock yourself out.

Love this, has a satisfactory solidness about it and a “clunk” as it deadbolts. Was ok to install, if you fit it and find it doesn’t work, it’ll be because you haven’t trimmed the internal bar enough. Just remove and file a little bit more off, it has to be exact. I found fitting the bit into the door frame was trickier as I’m no joiner, but eventually I got there.
It’s solid, well built and worth the money, you can deadlock from inside by flipping the handle or outside with the key. Can’t get yourself locked in or out as you have full control over it and it adds to the feeling of security on your home. Definately recommend.

Meets the requirements of HMO’s but technically quite difficult to line up the shaft on installation even using the plastic tool provided.

I takes a bit of time to get it installed and you will probably require hacksaw & few other tools if you are into DIY. I used regular lock before and locked myself out of my flat good few times – with this lock I can shut the door and not worry that I left my keys on the kitchen table.

I had done alot of research and as usual, Yale came out top.
This lock makes me feel the garage is secure now as it is a dead bolt and cannot be forced back without turning the latch like the night latches could.
It is also strongly secured to the door as there are several screw points and, in the case of the catch that the bolt goes into, it is in two pieces so you screw one bit on, then the second bit slides onto it and is screwed in too. This can be a little fiddly but once done, it won’t come off for anyone.
I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants better piece of mind than a night latch.
