Identifying a KFV multipoint door lock can be tricky, especially with older models that lack a visible stamp on the faceplate. However, recent models proudly display the KFV logo.

Identification Features

Older KFV gearboxes are typically attached to the faceplate strip with 1/8" rivets, a feature shared with few other brands, such as Winkhaus. In contrast, newer KFV locks utilize screws for this connection.

Measuring Backset

When measuring the backset, remember to account for a 2-3mm allowance for the faceplate. For instance, a 35mm backset gearbox will measure 32mm when detached from the strip.

Locking Mechanism

KFV pins are crafted from hardened steel for enhanced resistance against sawing. The pins are small, round bolts with a chamfered tip that extend when the lock is engaged. The deadbolts feature a unique chamfered center, aiding in proper alignment with the keep.

Measuring Guidelines

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

Backset Measurement: To measure the backset, take a ruler and measure the distance from the edge of the door to the center of the lock cylinder. Remember to account for a 2-3mm allowance for the faceplate.

Centres Measurement: For the centres (PZ), measure from the center of the keyhole to the center of the handle hole. This measurement is crucial for ensuring proper alignment and functionality.

Faceplate Measurement: To measure the faceplate, determine its width and length. This will help you select the correct faceplate from the drop-down options.

By following these steps, you can ensure that your KFV multipoint door lock is installed correctly, providing optimal security and performance for your home.
