Product Information

Full details

The AXS Hardware Bathroom Turn & Release, particularly the Antique Brass variant, is designed for homeowners seeking a blend of modern aesthetics and reliable privacy for internal bathroom and WC doors. Its key benefit lies in providing secure internal locking with an easy-to-use external emergency release, ensuring both privacy and safety. A minor caveat is the need to select the correct deadbolt backset (44mm or 57mm) if purchasing the complete set. This hardware offers a clean, concealed fix rose design that integrates seamlessly with contemporary door handles, backed by durable aluminium construction and a 5-year mechanical warranty.

FAQs

What is the difference between the 'Turn & Release Only' and the 'Complete Set' options?

The 'Turn & Release Only' option provides the thumbturn and external emergency release mechanism for use with an existing compatible bathroom lock. The 'Complete Set' includes both the turn and release components along with a matching tubular bathroom deadbolt, offering a full privacy locking solution.

Can this be used on external doors?

No, this AXS Bathroom Turn & Release set is designed specifically for internal bathroom and WC doors to provide privacy and an emergency release. It is not intended as a primary security lock for external entry doors.

What is the backset measurement for the deadbolt?

The deadbolt included in the complete set is available with either a 44mm or a 57mm backset. Please ensure you select the correct option based on your door preparation.

What finish options are available?

The AXS Bathroom Turn & Release is available in Antique Brass, Satin Brass, and Black finishes. The product description specifies the 'Antique Brass' variant.

How do I install the emergency release from the outside?

The external emergency release features a slot. You can use a coin or a flathead screwdriver to turn the release mechanism, which will allow the lock to be opened from the outside.

What is the warranty period for this product?

AXS Hardware provides a 5-Year Mechanical Warranty on the mechanism of this bathroom turn and release set.

What material is the hardware made from?

The hardware is manufactured from durable aluminium with a high-quality finish.

Troubleshooting

Thumbturn is stiff or difficult to operate.

Check that the spindle is correctly aligned and not bent. Ensure the door is not warped and the deadbolt is properly aligned with the strike plate on the frame. Tighten fixing screws slightly, but do not overtighten.

External emergency release does not work.

Verify that the correct tool (e.g., a coin or flathead screwdriver) is being used in the slot. Ensure the internal thumbturn is fully engaged or disengaged. Check for any obstruction preventing the mechanism from moving.

Deadbolt does not fully extend or retract.

Confirm the door is closing properly without binding. Check that the deadbolt bolt is aligned with the strike plate on the door frame and that the strike plate is correctly positioned and securely fastened.

The rose does not sit flush against the door.

Ensure the door surface is flat and free of obstructions. Check that the concealed fixings are correctly seated and that no wires or cables are interfering with the installation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Prepare the Door: Ensure your door has the necessary pre-drilled holes for the turn and release and the deadbolt (if applicable). The deadbolt backset should be either 44mm or 57mm as per your chosen variant.
  2. Install the Deadbolt: If using the complete set, first install the tubular bathroom deadbolt into the door edge according to its instructions, ensuring the faceplate is flush.
  3. Attach Roses: Secure the concealed fix roses to the door using the provided screws. The spindle will pass through the door and the deadbolt mechanism.
  4. Connect Thumbturn and Release: Attach the internal thumbturn to one end of the spindle and the external emergency release to the other, ensuring they are firmly seated against the roses.
  5. Test Operation: Check that the thumbturn operates the deadbolt smoothly and that the emergency release can engage and disengage the lock from the outside.

Compatibility:

  • Door Type: Designed for standard internal wooden doors.
  • Standard UK Door Furniture: Compatible with typical UK bathroom lock preparations.
  • Lever Handles: Pairs well with contemporary lever handles on a rose.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads that could damage the finish.
  • Maintenance: Periodically check that screws are tight and the mechanism operates smoothly. No lubrication is typically required for the mechanism itself, but ensure the deadbolt bolt moves freely.
