Key Features:

• Versatile Operation: Available in lift lever or split spindle configurations, making it adaptable for various door types.
• Identifiable Design: GU locks are easily recognized by the logo stamped on the faceplate. Older models may differ in style, so it's essential to check the lock type when replacing or repairing.
• Compatibility: While many locking points align with older models, adjustments may be necessary due to differences in deadbolt thickness. It's advisable to update keeps to ensure compatibility with new locks.
• Innovative History: Since its introduction in 1979, GU has evolved its locking systems, including the development of self-locking mechanisms and various operational backsets.

To ensure accurate measurements for your GU Europa multipoint door lock, follow these guidelines:

Measuring the Backset:The backset is the distance from the edge of the door to the center of the lock cylinder. Use a tape measure to find this distance, ensuring you measure from the door edge to the center of the hole where the lock will be installed.

Measuring the Centres (PZ):To measure the centres (PZ), determine the distance from the center of the keyhole to the center of the handle hole. This measurement is crucial for ensuring that the lock aligns properly with the door hardware.

Measuring the Faceplate:The faceplate is the visible part of the lock that is mounted on the edge of the door. To measure it, check the width and height of the faceplate currently installed or the one you plan to use, ensuring it fits the door's profile.

By following these measurement guidelines, you can ensure a proper fit and optimal performance of your GU Europa multipoint door lock.
