Measuring Guidelines:

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

Backset Measurement: To measure the backset, take a tape measure and measure the distance from the edge of the door to the center of the lock cylinder. This measurement is crucial for ensuring the lock fits properly.

Centres PZ Measurement: The PZ measurement refers to the distance from the center of the keyhole to the center of the handle hole. Use a tape measure to find this distance, ensuring that both holes are aligned correctly for optimal operation.

Faceplate Measurement: To measure the faceplate, remove the existing lock and measure the width and height of the faceplate. This will help you select the correct faceplate from the drop-down options.

By following these measurement guidelines, you can ensure that your GU Europa multipoint door lock installation is seamless and secure.
