Full details

FAQs

Is this lock suitable for external front doors?

While durable, a 3-lever lock is generally recommended for internal doors, sheds, or gates rather than primary high-security front entrance doors.

Does it come with a door handle?

No, this product is the mortice sash lock mechanism only. Handles must be purchased separately.

Can I use this on a fire door?

Please check your local building regulations regarding fire door specifications, as specific certification is often required for fire door hardware.

What is the backset size?

The backset is approximately 44-45mm, which corresponds to the 64mm (2.5 inch) case width.

Is the black finish durable?

The finish is designed for durability in normal use, though it should be protected from impact with sharp objects to prevent chipping.

Troubleshooting

The latch is facing the wrong direction for my door.

Use the Easi-T reversal feature to pull and rotate the latch head without needing to open the main lock casing.

The key is difficult to turn.

Ensure the lock is perfectly aligned in the mortice; if the door has warped, the strike plate may need adjustment to prevent friction.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Reversible latch design for universal application
  • Compatible with through-bolt door handles
  • Durable build suitable for industrial and domestic use
  • Sleek, modern black finish
  • Comprehensive kit includes all necessary hardware

Cons

  • 3-lever security level may not be suitable for high-security external front doors
  • Requires precise mortice cutting for professional flush fit
  • Black finish may show scratches if handled with abrasive tools

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, measure the depth of your door to ensure the 64mm (2.5 inch) case provides the correct backset. Use a sharp chisel to clear the mortice recess, ensuring the forend sits flush with the door edge. The reversible latch can be rotated by engaging the Easi-T mechanism usually accessed via the front of the case. For maintenance, keep the moving parts lubricated with a light silicone-based spray to prevent sticking. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners on the black finish; a soft, damp cloth is sufficient to keep the surface free from dust and debris.
