Full details

The Timco 3 Lever Mortice Sashlock is a reliable medium-security solution designed for property owners and contractors seeking a robust locking mechanism for internal or light external timber doors. Ideal for both domestic and commercial environments, this lock features a versatile reversible latch and fire-safety certification, though it is limited to a 3-lever security level, which may not be suitable for high-security exterior entrance requirements.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this lock suitable for external doors?

It is suitable for light external timber doors, but for main entrance security, a 5-lever lock is generally recommended.

Can this be used on fire doors?

Yes, it is Certifire approved (CF5531) for 30 and 60-minute fire-rated timber doors.

How do I reverse the latch?

The latch is designed to be easily reversed; please consult the instruction sheet provided in the box for the specific mechanical release mechanism.

Does it come with keys?

Yes, the product is supplied with two keys.

What is the backset dimension?

The backset is 58mm.

Is the finish resistant to tarnishing?

The bronze-style finish is durable for interior use, but like all metal finishes, it should be kept away from harsh chemicals and excess moisture.

Troubleshooting

The latch does not close flush with the strike plate.

Check that the strike plate is morticed deep enough into the door frame and that the door hinges are not sagging.

The handle remains in a downward position after use.

Ensure the handle is a sprung type; if using unsprung handles, you may need an additional spring cassette to assist the return.

The key is difficult to turn in the lock.

Verify that the lock case is not being squeezed by the timber mortice. Ensure the hole for the key is clear of debris or wood shavings.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Certified for use on fire-rated doors (30 and 60 minutes)
  • Reversible latch makes it universal for door orientation
  • Easy to install with included fixing hardware
  • Durable bronze aesthetic complements various decor styles

Cons

  • Lower security rating compared to 5-lever locks
  • Not intended for high-security external door applications
  • Limited to specific case depth and backset measurements

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For proper installation, ensure your timber door has a sufficient thickness to accommodate the 78mm case depth. Start by chiseling the mortice recess to match the lock body dimensions, ensuring a flush fit for the faceplate. Because the latch is reversible, you can unscrew or adjust the bolt head to align with your door's opening direction before finalizing the installation. To maintain the bronze finish, avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners or chemical solvents; a simple wipe with a soft, dry cloth is sufficient. Regularly check that the fixing screws remain tight to prevent movement, and apply a light machine oil to the latch and bolt every six months if the action feels stiff.
