Latch 3 Drop Bolts Key Wind Operated Multipoint Door Lock - U-Rail 22mm Faceplate

Sobinco Multipoint Door Lock

The Sobinco multipoint door lock is engineered for security and reliability, featuring 3 deadbolts and 1 latch. Crafted in Belgium, these high-quality locks are predominantly used on aluminium doors, ensuring durability and performance.

Unique Design Features

Identifying a Sobinco lock is straightforward due to its distinctive "drop bolt" mechanism. While referred to as deadbolts for convenience, these locks combine a hook and deadbolt that engage as the lock is activated. Sobinco locks are often found branded under names like Raynaers and Aliplast, but they maintain the same robust design.

Locking Positions and Configuration

All Sobinco locks share consistent locking positions, with a top drop bolt located at 720mm and a bottom drop bolt at 760mm from the spindle. This adheres to the widely recognized 1490mm locking centres configuration, making it compatible with various door types.

Faceplate Variations

The primary distinction among Sobinco models lies in the faceplate options, which include:

• 16mm
• Flat 20mm (square edges)
• Flat 24mm (square edges)
• U-shaped 22mm x 6.5mm
• U-shaped 24mm in two sizes: 24mm x 5mm and 24mm x 6.5mm

Gearbox Specifications

Sobinco gearboxes come in backsets of 30mm, 35mm, and 40mm, with the narrower styles ideal for aluminium doors. All gearboxes feature a single spindle with key wind operation, measuring 210mm in height plus the backset, with a latch height of 11mm and a throw of 9.5mm.
