The Dzina Traditional Style Security Night Latch is an ideal security solution for homeowners seeking a reliable, classic locking mechanism for wooden entry doors. It provides the essential benefit of a deadlocking snib, which offers added peace of mind by enabling users to lock the door securely from the inside, while maintaining easy key-based exterior access. While it offers robust security, it is specifically designed for standard door installations and may not be suitable for doors requiring multi-point locking systems or heavy-duty commercial reinforcements.

Yes, the external cylinder is designed for individual replacement, though it is often easier to keep spare keys in a secure location.
This model is primarily designed for wooden doors. Mounting on metal doors may require specific drilling and mounting hardware not provided.
The package includes three keys as standard.
The backset is the distance from the edge of the door to the center of the keyhole; this latch requires a 60mm distance to function correctly.
No, the deadlocking snib is designed to be operated from the inside of the house only.
Apply a small amount of graphite lubricant or silicone spray into the keyway.
Check that the mounting screws are not overtightened, which can cause binding within the casing.
Ensure the strike plate is properly aligned with the latch bolt and not obstructed by debris.
Installation requires standard carpentry tools, including a drill and screwdriver. Ensure your door has a 60mm backset to match the latch mechanism.
To maintain the brass finish, wipe the cylinder and latch plate periodically with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners that may strip the champagne finish. Lubricate the internal cylinder mechanism once a year with a light silicone-based spray to ensure smooth key operation.
