This British made High Security 5 Lever Mortice Sashlock is available in a range of finish options to match our other ironmongery products and features a 20mm throw solid brass deadbolt with hardened steel anti-saw rollers, hardened steel anti-drill casing and 5 pick resistant levers. Certified to BS3621 and recommended by insurance companies and the police. This lock is an excellent choice for both high quality residential and heavy use commercial applications and is offered with the option of "Standard Sprung" or "Heavy Sprung" handle follower. Easily reversible to suit left hand or right hand hung doors and suitable for fire rated timber door sets in accordance with current regulations.
