Girl locked me out, so I tried to man handle it open and snapped handle off. Now I gotta replace it. I'll find out the brand door and just order the OEM. Thanks
We will be doing the same thing and your video seems to be what we'll need. However, it didn't show how you pull the old inside part out. Can you give a description on how it pulls out? Thanks.
Hey Angie. I can’t remember right off , but in next few days will make you an update video and actually take it apart for you so you can see the step by step of how I remove it.
I ended up prying mine out from the latch side. There is set of plastic retainers at the top and bottom of the unit and i worked mine out with a flathead screwdriver.
Feel free to stop at 1:53 and read the instructions, which if you bought the Pollard latch it should be included...this is not rocket science, but I understand that everybody is not as handy as I am ,and regardless of all of my experience I appreciate it when a manufacturer includes simple instructions. 3m chose to do it his way rather than follow instructions and I don't know why😅
So you ordered a handle kit and also a latch assembly correct? I am helping a neighbor replace her hardware. I found all the parts on Pella’s replacement parts site. Just don’t want to forget anything
Well my latch kit came with the handles. It was like $75 total. I’m sure you can buy things separately tho. I would call pellas customer service and double check what you are about to order. I wouldn’t want you to order too much stuff. 🤙🏼
I have gotten this question a couple times and realized I must have missed that part. So I made another video. Watch this one and it should answer your question. ruclips.net/video/G4lZVOojKrU/видео.htmlsi=nB3qrj59TLblhWyg
When the screws are loosened it just pulls right out. I do apologize for not showing the actual removal. I may make an updated more thorough video soon.
Yep I hate when that crap happens at my clients house. They freak out lmao. I just tell them they need to buy a new door. And 99% of them agree with me. Lmao. We end up fixing it for them. They just laugh about it. Lol. They were actually gonna buy a new door.
I hear that. Some people got that cash and don’t hesitate. I think I’m like you, even if I could afford to pay a bunch of labor I would rather attempt it myself. Just always had a do it myself attitude. That’s why our trucks are in the spotlight.
I apologize for that oversight in the video. Once the handles are off and screw removed it should pry out softly. I am going to make another updated video soon regarding it. I’m sorry about that.
These Pella latches must be made of the cheapest China pot metal because I've had to replace mine a few times now within a 3 year period. Pella is not what they used to be apparently.
I totally agree. For as much as we are charged for these things you would think they were made of gold. Lol. Quality certainly is not job one anymore. 👍🏻
Too simple to understand, yes the problem is most likely it's all made in China because spoiled Americans want too high of wages for a job a chimp can do 😂
we have exactly the same screen door pella, the lock is broken and handyman came and took everything apart, cant find the same mortise lock or handles, where did you order it?
Gotcha. Mine does also but Pella makes many different styles and designs. My best advice would be to contact www.Pella.com and talk directly with one of their techs. To make sure you get the correct part. I wish I could be of more help. Please let me know if I can. Thanks.
I pried mine out with a flathead screwdriver. There is a plastic retainer at the top and bottom of the unit and i just worked it back and forth(or up and down) prying it until it popped out of the latch side. That said, the issue i was having stopped once the unit was removed so im going to oil it up and reinstall the original unit. Will like post a video next week.
Larry. I made an updated video. I hope this is more detailed. Here is the link. I do apologize. ruclips.net/video/G4lZVOojKrU/видео.htmlsi=ehVGJqWdMY2zeAwy
@@LivinWith3M Thank you. Managed to make it through the installation, and my new lock is in place, but turning the key is super stiff. Is that fixable?
My only guess for it being very stiff is possibly you have tightened some of the bolts or screws too tight? I’m not really sure. WD-40 is safe to use on these so I would take a small amount and maybe spray it with the straw attachment on the can.
I found this video to be very helpful and completed this for my neighbor saving her substantial money.
Thank you for watching. Glad I could help!
You showed loosening and tightening screws, but skipped over the meat of the project, which is changing out the mechanism.
Sorry about that David. I will try to do better in depth if I make another video on it. Thanks for the insight.
No kidding ...click bait BS
Seems he wanted to brag about going to the lake ...and whiffed on this
An A+ for encouraging us mere mortals that are squeamish whenever we consider anything technical but ….. uh, hey yeah, thanks, looks doable
@steve2713 thank you. I try to encourage everyone to give it a try and not immediately pay someone. 👍🏼
I enjoyed it. You did show how to remove the lock.
Thank you! This is just what I needed to get me over the top with this.
Your welcome.
You really explained this very well. Thank you.
You are most welcome and I sure appreciate the kind words. Take care. 🤙🏼

My man! Awesome video! Thanks for the share.
Thank you so much. Glad I could help. 👍🏻
You skipped over the most important part!! How do you remove the old unit and install the new one inside the door???

How did you get Mechanical part out of the Door????????

Thank you Mike!!
You are welcome. 👍🏻
My main reason for watching your video was to see how to remove the latching mechanism from inside the door. You never showed that.
When the screws are loosened it just pulls right out. I do apologize for not showing the actual removal. I may make an updated more thorough video soon.
Didn’t show how to put handle on other side with snap ring
I made an updated video. Hope this shows. Sorry about that. ruclips.net/video/G4lZVOojKrU/видео.htmlsi=NU2sDWQdJnfimZ8t

Thanks! Ive done these a bunch of times but i kept scratching my head wondering how the heck the handles wiggle off. Your video helped remind me!
You are quite welcome. 👍🏻
You didn't show how you removed the latch assembly from the door. I wasn't able to see anything that I needed to loosen. Did you just pry it off?
I apologize for that oversight in the video. Once the handles are off and screw removed it should pry out softly. I am going to make another updated video soon regarding it. I’m sorry about that.

This was good video but music was a huge learning distraction for me
Thank you and I apologize about the music. I will try to improve for my videos going further. Take care.
we have exactly the same screen door pella, the lock is broken and handyman came and took everything apart, cant find the same mortise lock or handles, where did you order it?
Amazon. I have a link in my video description. Hope that helps. 👍🏻
@@LivinWith3M ours is Pella Lock and pella door on the lock it says Pella
Gotcha. Mine does also but Pella makes many different styles and designs. My best advice would be to contact www.Pella.com and talk directly with one of their techs. To make sure you get the correct part. I wish I could be of more help. Please let me know if I can. Thanks.
How do you remove the bolt
Mine only had a Philips head bolt holding the face plate on.
Did you re-install the retaining clip?
Bill. You know what. I never did. It’s been working fine since but that is a good point to mention.
How do you get the locking mechanism out?
Once you remove the Allen screws and Philips screws the internal part will remove. You may have to wiggle and maneuver the parts but they will remove.
I pried mine out with a flathead screwdriver. There is a plastic retainer at the top and bottom of the unit and i just worked it back and forth(or up and down) prying it until it popped out of the latch side. That said, the issue i was having stopped once the unit was removed so im going to oil it up and reinstall the original unit. Will like post a video next week.
My old one, the inside fell down inside door. Didn’t tell us that. You are leaving out a lot.
I apologize and plan to do an updated more thorough video soon. I tried real hard but do know it wasn’t the best video. Sorry about that. Take care.
@@LivinWith3M so how do you put the new one on without let it fall to bottom of door
Mine would not allow the inside piece to fall inside the door. I’m really not sure how yours fell down in there. I will check and get back with you.
I can’t find the latch assembly on paella’s website
I found mine on eBay. They are getting harder to come by. Not sure why. Try eBay or Amazon.
@@LivinWith3M thanks
You are welcome.
You didn’t even show how to get the inside part out of the door!!!!
I apologize. I plan on doing another video soon.
You skipped over the part I needed to see…
Larry. I made an updated video. I hope this is more detailed. Here is the link. I do apologize. ruclips.net/video/G4lZVOojKrU/видео.htmlsi=ehVGJqWdMY2zeAwy
Skips the exact part of the process I needed to see... how to remove the handle with the Allen key. Frustrating.
ruclips.net/video/G4lZVOojKrU/видео.htmlsi=DkCQYit7OJOzcNpV
Here is an updated video I made that has more detail. I apologize.

@LivinWith3M That would certainly save on the hassle of removing/redoing the install. Can report back after work today.
@JSYantiss1 Thank you. Yes please let me know. 🤙🏼
