    This is the video I've been trying to find, Bill. Thank you.
    I had a question about using my old cylinder to keep old key, but Bill has already responded to someone else below with same question.
    This solves my problem 100%. Huge thank you.

    Great video. Made changing over the handle and lock very easy. Especially helpful at 8:26, as although the door would latch, it wouldn't lock. I just used a chisel to clean out some excess wood in the strike plate recess and it then locked perfectly. Total cost was $50 for the handle mechanism and saved me money calling out someone to do it.

    No luck getting my lock barrel out even with door open and key. Lock barrel is such a neat fit that even feeler gauge won’t let me flip up that pawl up.
    A previous trick I saw and tried was to remove the whole door and upend it to flip the pawl…even that didn’t work. I keep looking out for helpful videos like this.
    The lock barrel looks to strong to just snap it with multi grips as I’ve seen demonstrated for sliding doors.
    I guess I’ll have to pay a lock smith to show the ultimate secret.

    Have a similar lock which, when the manual lock lever is operated from the inside, 90% of the time we can again unlock from the inside with the small lock lever. There are times however that once locked manually inside via the small lock lever, the small lock lever jams and we have to unlock the door with the keys....very annoying. ...any ideas? ...I've looked at it every which way but buggered if I can see what is malfunctioning.

Would that be one of the triple locks in the door frame coming off alignment ? Rgds Glenn

      Lol, there is a little mechanism on the inside that needs to be released prior to being able to turn the snib over. What you need to do I manually move the locking mechanism ( usually this is what the cylinder would do when using the key). If you look up my video on how to snap the cylinder I show how to do this in that video 👍👍

    Hey Bill... great video, but I am still stuck trying to remove the old cylinder. It simply won't come out..... I can see daylight on both sides through the gap between the cylinder and the lock body, so it doesn't look like the cam is stuck holding it in. However, I cannot find anything small enough to fit in the gap. I have tried everything, down to the finest sewing needle, but nothing will fit. Very frustrating1... I have a new replacement lock ready to go, but can't get the old cylinder out! :-(

    I took on this replacement. The removal of the old lock became an issue for me. After successfully removing the key cylinder, the lock body was stuck in the door. It can move up and down in the door frame but something prevents it from coming out of the door frame. At 3:55 Bill pinches the latch and pulls out the lock body without effort, makes me want to cry watching.
    The old lock body does not have the holes for the snib so the new handles could not be installed with the old lock body. No idea what I am going to try to get past this issue.
