I have two of this type of Yale Offset Cylinder Prison Locks, but I am only willing to sell one or the other- not both.

On one of them, the bolt throws with some difficulty.* The cylinder itself turns fine, but there is some misalignment in how the cylinder links to the bolt throw mechanism. Many viewing this ad are locksmiths and probably capable of correcting this. The video illustrates these issues.

There is only one mounting screw. Part of the mounting hole has broken off. This no doubt contributes to the misalignment of the bolt linkage, but again is probably repairable by the type of people viewing this ad.

The cylinder on the other side is evidently keyed differently and is not operable by the provided key. This is also illustrated in the video.

The 2nd lock functions perfectly with both cylinders operational and is nicely painted. Oddly enough this lock also has a broken screw mount that does not affect operations at all. This may have been an Achilles heel in this type of lock, though it had an production run of over 60 years.

I am not certain that I am willing to sell the 2nd lock, but I am willing to entertain offers. The crossed out keys are not included. Only the Folger Adam key is included.

The first lock is $100 firm, plus $17.00 shipping to Continental US only and includes a Folger Adam key.
