Schlage Lock & Deadbolt for Prevost Door

[luvrbus]

Why not just use a hammer and break a window or cut a circle with a glass cutter, or....

Thief's don't like broken glass  that is their last resort .I had one of my building broken into last week with a window not far from the door 200 bucks if they broke the window no they destroyed a $1800.00 door and frame and went away with nothing

Is there a rotating ring on the Corbin ?

The Yale mortise lock on our bus is mounted in a similar way without the ring. However, it would be nearly impossible to turn the lock with a Channel Lock since the lock is screwed into the mortise and has a set screw driven in from the side.

The fact that Custom Coach installed a mortise lock make the door pretty darned secure. But, it also means that we can't easily replace it with one of the wireless locks like Scott used.

From the information I found online, it looks like the Schlage lock in the start of this thread mounts with the two screws as well, so hopefully there is a way to keep it secure.

Seems this thread is taking on a life of it's own and getting out there. I may have miss-led some with the picture of the INSIDE of the door photo which is a temporary get by coble (to secure door) until the correct parts can be obtained. The first photo is the outside of my door. We don't have locksmith shops here anymore, everyone works out of a van and for $100 service call will tell you they don't have the part you need and don't have the time to find it for you go buy a new lock. I did security for 16 years for Minneapolis Board of Education and they only break in next to the signs saying "protected by electronic surveillance". This is not an electronic lock and there are no LED's. I state again - I AM NOT A LOCKSMITH Thanks for your help and added frustration.  >:(Gerry H.
