Lockwood Tailbar Albany Standard 63mm - Chrome Plate - MC2650EX
The Lockwood MC2650EX Tailbar Albany Standard 63mm is a hardened steel plated extended tailbar designed for Albany surface mounted sliding door lock applications and selected single cylinder deadbolts.
At 63mm long, this accessory is intended for thicker door situations where a standard tailbar length may not provide the required engagement. It is commonly used with Yale MC13 and Yale MC16 single cylinder deadbolt configurations on doors greater than 45mm thick.
This is a small but important retrofit and service item, typically used when adapting cylinder-to-lock connection length rather than replacing the full lock assembly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a complete lock?
No. This is a tailbar accessory only, not a complete lock or deadbolt.
When is the 63mm tailbar typically needed?
It is used where doors are greater than 45mm thick and a longer tailbar is required for proper engagement.
Will this suit every cylinder or deadbolt?
No. It is described for Albany sliding door lock applications and selected Yale single cylinder deadbolts such as the MC13 and MC16. Compatibility should be checked before ordering.
Additional Information
- This is the kind of small service part that can solve thickness-related fitment issues without changing the full lockset.
- A common mistake is assuming any longer tailbar will suit any lock. Tailbar shape, engagement, and cylinder pairing still need to match the lock body.
- It is commonly relevant in retrofit work on thicker timber or aluminium sliding door assemblies where the original tailbar does not reach correctly.
