Questions & Answers

The Crimebeater multi-point door lock is designed for use on timber, composite doors. The established lock brand has been a market favourite thanks to its ease of use, durability and reliability. Tested to Secured by Design and PAS 23/24 requirements. Available with either Hook locking or Deadbolt locking points, the Crimebeater offers flexibility; the hookes offer higher security while the deadbolts offers a more traditional locking option.

The faceplate on the Crimebeater is either 1720mm by 20mm in stainless steel (for composite and timber doors), or 2100mm by 44mm in white aluminium (for composite doors only), giving peace of mind to hard pressed fabricators and consumers.

Dual spindle or lever operation is available for the Crimebeater, depending upon the requirements of the end user.

What is a Eurogroove?

A Eurogroove is an industry standard feature on most PVCu, aluminium and timber door and window profiles, where the locking devices are fitted.

A Eurogroove is the groove in the profile in which multipoint locks and espagnolettes are fitted. This is always 16mm for PVC, but can be 20mm in Timber.

 

What is PAS 24?

PAS 24 is an enhanced security performance test for door assembly requirements,  every component used within the door set tested must comply to the relevant British Standard for that component.

PAS 24 includes several security tests, such as:

  • Manual intervention
  • Mechanical loading
  • Hard and soft body impact

An example of the intensity of the testing, the mechanical loading tests subjects the door set to 4.5Kn of pressure, the equivalent of approximately 45 times the pressure used to tighten a car wheel nut.

How do I measure the PZ centre and Backset on a door lock?

Backset

The backset is the dimension from the front of the faceplate to the centre of the handle spindle or cylinder hole.

The most popular backset sizes are 25mm, 30mm, 35mm and 45mm.

The backset dimension is the distance between A and B on the diagram.

 

PZ Centre

The "PZ" or "Centre" is the distance between the centre of the handle spindle and the centre of the round section of the cylinder. 

The PZ Centre dimension is the dimension between C and D on the diagram.

Multipoint locks can have one or two spindle holes (also known as followers) these type of locks will have two measurements, the most popular being 62mm / 92mm.

Most modern locks with one spindle are 92mm centre, however some older locks may be 70mm or 72mm.
