Door handle cylinder swap
« on: May 02, 2023, 17:29:39 »
Hi
I’ve got a new door handle and want to swap the cylinder mechanism over…how do I get it out? Will it mean the tumblers fall out or is it just a question of removing a circlip…what I really mean..is it a diy job?
Thank you

Hi
I have the handle off.. removed the circlip.. now I need to remove the larger retaining clip.. is there a trick to it?
How do I get it out so that I can remove the cylinder and transfer it to my new handle?
Help needed
Thank you
