FAQs
Can this lock be used on an outward-opening gate?
Yes, provided the lock is mounted on the interior side of the gate.
Is the lock weather-resistant?
The black finish is durable, but as with all mechanical locks, periodic cleaning and occasional lubrication are recommended for outdoor use.
What are the dimensions of the lock?
The lock measures 75mm x 75mm x 75mm.
Does it come with mounting screws?
Please check your specific package contents, as mounting hardware requirements can vary based on your door material (e.g., wood vs. metal).
Can I get extra keys cut?
Yes, a local locksmith can typically duplicate the provided keys if you require additional copies.
Is this suitable for a front door?
No, this is designed for sheds, cabinets, and side gates and does not meet the security standards required for main home entry doors.
Troubleshooting
Key does not turn smoothly in the lock
Ensure the lock is not mounted on an uneven surface which may be causing the casing to warp or bind the internal mechanism.
Lock feels loose after installation
Check that the mounting screws are fully tightened and that the material behind the lock is solid enough to support the weight and force applied.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is straightforward due to the face-fixing design. 1. Measure the area on the interior surface of your door or gate to ensure the 75mm footprint fits without obstructing hinges or latches. 2. Align the lock body and mark the screw holes. 3. Use appropriate screws (not included in all kits depending on surface type) to fix the lock into place. 4. Test the movement of the locking mechanism with the key before fully tightening the hardware. To maintain the lock, apply a light silicone-based lubricant to the keyway once or twice a year if exposed to harsh weather conditions, and keep the exterior surface clean with a damp cloth.
