The Perry Enclosed Tower Bolt (200mm) is designed for homeowners and handymen seeking to reinforce garden sheds, outbuildings, and domestic doors with a robust, reliable locking mechanism. Its primary strength lies in its simple yet sturdy construction that ensures doors remain securely shut under various conditions; however, potential users should note that as a surface-mounted manual bolt, it requires precise alignment during installation to ensure smooth operation.

Yes, the Perry Enclosed Tower Bolt is designed for outdoor use and is suitable for sheds and outbuildings.
It includes the necessary components for installation, though you should ensure you have appropriate screws for your specific door material.
This model features a 200mm length, providing a secure and deep fastening capacity.
No, this is a standard sliding bolt meant for convenience and supplementary security; it should not be used as a sole security measure for high-value items.
Yes, you can paint the bolt to match your door, but be careful not to get paint inside the sliding mechanism, as this will cause it to stick.
Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to the track and check that the mounting screws are not overtightened, which can warp the casing.
Loosen the mounting screws on the keep and adjust its position slightly until the bolt enters the hole smoothly, then re-tighten.
To install the bolt, position the main sliding unit on the door and the staple keep on the door frame, ensuring the bolt slides freely into the keep before marking the screw holes. Use galvanized screws for outdoor applications to prevent corrosion. Periodically inspect the alignment to ensure the door has not shifted due to seasonal weather changes. If the movement becomes stiff, applying a silicone-based lubricant to the sliding channel will restore smooth operation. Ensure the mounting surface is flat and sturdy enough to support the weight and force applied to the bolt.
