I have a "Colonial" clock, serial no. 7706769.

A weight chain has got locked in the up position.

Is there a safe way to release the mechanism?

My center weight is stuck up between the movement front and back plate ( to high up to disconnect the weight) is there any way to release this to get it down.

When that has happened to me I've just let the pendulum swing. After the clock runs for 5-15 mins. I can pull on the loose chain and support the weight with my other hand and raise the weight. I try to do it smoothly and without stopping, but once I can pull the chain down I can pull in several steps.

I don't know if that helps with your situation but I hope so.
