FAQs

1) What is the Schlage driver clip used for in a deadbolt?
The Schlage driver clip (also known as the disc driver or tailpiece retainer) is a small metal piece installed on the back of the deadbolt cylinder. It secures the tailpiece (the central rotating shaft) in place, ensuring the lock functions correctly and doesn't disengage inside the door assembly.

2) Can I replace a missing or damaged driver clip myself?
Yes, this driver clip can be replaced without removing the entire lock. You simply slide off the cylinder tailpiece, fit the new clip onto the designated groove, and re-insert the cylinder. It's a quick, cost-effective fix, about $3 that restores deadbolt operation without major disassembly.
