A latch assembly includes a deadbolt which has an axial hole defined therein and a transverse hole defined therein and communicated with the axial hole. A bolt extension includes a first end mounted in the deadbolt and a second end connected to a deadbolt operator mechanism. The first end of the bolt extension includes axially spaced first and second recesses defined therein. A pin is received in the transverse hole of the deadbolt and includes a first end and a second end. The pin is movable between a first position where the first end of the pin is received in the first recess or the second recess to prevent from relative axial movement between the bolt extension and the deadbolt and a second position where the first end of the pin is not received in the recesses to allow relative axial movement between the bolt extension and the deadbolt. |
