Affixing a Mezuzah at Night

Question

Is there an issue with affixing a mezuzah at night?

Answer

Hello 

It is permitted to affix a mezuzah at night. 

Source

Sefer HaEshkol, laws of mezuzah. 

Indeed, in Baal HaChaim it is written that if possible, one should prefer to affix it during the day, but if it happens at night, it does not delay the mitzvah.
