FAQs

Does this lock include the thumb-turn and bathroom handle set?

No, this product is the lock case only. You will need to purchase compatible bathroom furniture separately.

Can I use this on a fire-rated door?

Yes, but you must install the appropriate intumescent pack around the lock body to maintain the fire rating.

What is the backset measurement?

The backset is 45mm, which is the standard for this 65mm case size.

Is the bronze finish weather-resistant?

These locks are designed for interior use and are not recommended for external doors exposed to rain or high humidity.

What tools are needed for installation?

You will need a chisel, a mallet, a power drill, and a drill bit corresponding to the size of the lock case for mortising.

Troubleshooting

Latch does not retract fully

Ensure the lock is centered in the mortise and that no wood debris is obstructing the internal mechanism.

Door does not latch securely

Check the alignment of the strike plate on the door frame; you may need to adjust the plate depth or tighten the mounting screws.

Handle or thumb-turn feels stiff

Check that the door is not warped and that the spindle is aligned correctly with the lock follower.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable construction ensures long-term reliability
  • Versatile bronze finish matches a wide range of interior hardware
  • Radiused strike plate simplifies the fitting process
  • Compatible with fire door safety standards

Cons

  • Intumescent pack for fire safety must be purchased separately
  • Requires professional routing tools for a flush finish
  • Bronze finish may show fingerprints if not cleaned periodically

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation requires basic carpentry skills, specifically the ability to mortise the door edge to accommodate the 65mm lock case. Ensure that the door thickness is sufficient to support the lock body without compromising structural integrity. For fire door applications, you must install an intumescent material between the lock case and the door pocket to prevent fire spread; failing to do this will void the fire rating. To maintain the bronze finish, wipe periodically with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive chemical cleaners or steel wool, as these can strip the protective finish and lead to oxidation.
