FAQs

Does this lock come with a key cylinder?

No, the Euro profile cylinder is sold separately. You will need to purchase a compatible Euro profile cylinder to complete the lockset.

Is this lock suitable for fire doors?

Yes, this lock is CE Warrington Certified, meaning it meets the necessary standards for use on fire doors.

How do I determine if the lock is reversible for my door?

The lock is designed to be reversible, meaning it can be installed on doors that open either inwards or outwards. The latch can be adjusted or reversed during installation.

What are the exact dimensions of the lock case and forend?

The lock case size is 63mm (2.5"), with a backset of 44mm. The forend (face plate) measures 150mm in length.

What material is the lock made of?

The lock is constructed from iron and features a nickel-plated finish.

Can I use this lock with a standard UK oval cylinder?

No, this is a Euro profile mortice sash lock and requires a specific Euro profile cylinder. It is not compatible with UK oval cylinders.

Troubleshooting

Latch is stiff or won't retract fully.

Ensure the lock is correctly aligned within the mortice and that the door is not warped. Check for obstructions in the lock case and lubricate the mechanism with a suitable lubricant.

Lock cylinder does not engage properly.

Verify that the Euro profile cylinder is fully inserted and correctly aligned with the lock mechanism. Ensure the cylinder screws are tightened appropriately.

Lock is difficult to turn with the key.

Check for any debris inside the keyway of the cylinder. The lock may require lubrication, or the cylinder itself might be worn and need replacement.

Door doesn't close smoothly after installation.

Re-check the mortice for squareness and depth. Ensure the door is hanging correctly on its hinges and that the strike plate on the frame is aligned with the latch.
