Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install this lock, you must cut a precise mortice cavity into the door edge matching the 8.7cm height and 4.4cm depth dimensions. Ensure the door is at least 35mm thick to accommodate the lock body. For compatibility, ensure you are using a standard Euro profile cylinder of the correct length for your specific door thickness. To maintain the bronze finish, wipe periodically with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents or harsh chemicals, as these can strip the finish and expose the underlying metal to oxidation.
