Latch Deadbolt 2 Rollers Lift Lever Multipoint Door Lock

Product Overview: GU Ferco Fercomatic Multipoint Door Lock

The GU Ferco Fercomatic multipoint door lock is a robust locking solution designed for enhanced security and functionality. This lock features:

• 2 Rollers
• 1 Deadbolt
• 1 Latch

Key Features:

The Fercomatic lock is an evolution of the Tripact lock, distinguished by a pin that connects the latch and deadbolt, ensuring that the locking points engage automatically when the door is closed. This innovative design is a precursor to modern slam shut door locks, which are prevalent in contemporary door manufacturing.

Security and Design:

Unlike standard Ferco locks, the Fercomatic includes a deadbolt, enhancing its security profile. Ferco locks are part of the GU group of companies and are notable for their unique 70mm centres (PZ), making them easily identifiable.

Installation and Compatibility:

Typically installed in timber doors, the trip act flip hooks are designed to minimize door preparation. The original Tripact locks were latch-only, but the addition of a deadbolt has improved their security. The early models featured a 20mm faceplate with a T-shaped rail, available only with a 40mm backset. Newer versions now include a deadbolt and a slightly smaller faceplate. If replacing an older lock, a new deadbolt keep may be necessary.

Specifications:

• Gearbox Dimensions: 212mm high x backset + 15mm wide
• Roller Adjustment: +/- 1mm for optimal weather sealing

Operation Instructions:

• To Lock the Door:
  • Lift the handle upwards to engage the locking points.
  • Secure the locking points and main deadbolt (if present) by turning the key.
• To Unlock the Door:
  • Unlock the system by turning the key.
  • Push the handle downwards to disengage the locking points and retract the latch.

This multipoint door lock combines functionality with security, making it a reliable choice for various door applications.
