Vita XL gearboxes are designed for versatility and durability, available in both 35mm and 45mm backsets. They come in single, double, and split spindle configurations, maintaining consistent dimensions across all models. Each gearbox measures 227mm in height plus the backset measurement, with a secure attachment to the strips via three equidistant screws. Notably, the middle screw is positioned 108mm from both the top and bottom screws, ensuring stability.
These gearboxes are equipped with a hook that throws upwards, crafted from Dacromet coated A3 sintered steel, standing approximately 23mm high. Additionally, a snib on the faceplate allows for convenient latch retention.
