Retrofit Multipoint Lock in timber door


Rob99

Recommended Posts

I have an existing timber door which has a standard nightlatch and separate mortice lock but I want to improve security by fitting a mulitpoint lock instead of the existing ones.

 

Any recommendations of what is a reasonable quality one, there seem to be so many out there and the price range is huge!

 

Are the "non-branded" ones from the likes of ironmongery direct or locksonline any good or is it best to stick with "household" names like Yale or ERA? I often think you're paying for the name with some stuff!

just an option but you could always double up on the mortice lock. I did that on my current house and a locksmith can supply the lock made to your current key, so one key does both locks

true, but I don't want a third lock on the door, even if it can be keyed the same

 

all my other doors are multipoint so i wanted it to be the same, and only one key to remember!!

I got it from Lockshopdirect.

The

Winkhaus Cobra Latch, Deadbolt, 4 Hooks, Key Wind

is now showing at £134 in vat, but a 5% discount for signing up to their email address.

I imagine you can get it cheaper if you shop around.
