If the lock remains installed, check for the brand stamped on the faceplate. Some models may also display the Secured By Design logo. Look for a small black snib located below the latch; however, note that other brands like ERA and Kenrick may also have similar features. All Ingenious locks are characterized by a central hook that throws downward, distinguishing them from deadbolts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor accurate identification, we recommend removing the multipoint lock from the door, especially if the brand is not visible or if it has been rebranded.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGearbox Specifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIngenious gearboxes are notable for their unique double spindle arrangement, with centers at 62mm and 92mm.
