Description
A complete insert lock kit for gates built from 40mm box section, with everything you need in one box. The lock case slides into a cut-out in the stile and the fore plate sits flush on the edge of the gate, so the frame stays clean and there is nothing proud for anyone to lever against. The kit brings together the lock, two aluminium cover plates, a set of aluminium lever handles, a cylinder and a stainless steel keep for the post. The self-latching bolt catches the keep when the gate closes and the key throws a stainless hook into the keep for locking up. It suits steel, aluminium and PVC gates, and it has a 20mm backset.

Why this kit works
Stainless where it matters. The mechanism, hook, front plate and latch bolt are all stainless steel, which is the right specification for a lock that lives outdoors and gets used every day.
A hook rather than a plain bolt. The hook has a 21mm throw and anchors into the keep, and combined with the right keep it holds the two sides of the opening together so the gate cannot simply be pulled away from the post.
No tapped thread in the profile. The lock clips into the cut-out, so you are not drilling and tapping the box section to mount it, and fitting takes seconds rather than minutes once the slot is cut.
Adjustment on the gate. The day bolt adjusts continuously by up to 10mm without taking out the lock box, and it swaps easily between left and right. A cover plate keeps dirt out of the mechanism.
Where it is used
Fabricated box section gates on commercial sites, housing, schools and leisure buildings, and any new-build gate where the installer wants a tidy insert lock from one part number. It accepts Euro profile cylinders, so it can be keyed alongside other locks on the site with a suitable cylinder. For a welded or surface lock option, see the industrial gate locks.

Choosing the right kit
Measure your box section. This kit is for 40mm profiles and is the current pattern, with a cut-out 176mm long. A gate already cut for an older lock body can need a different pattern, so measure the existing slot before you order. The same style of lock is available without the kit parts if you already have handles and a keep, and larger profiles have their own kits.

Fitting and care
Cut the slot in the stile from the data sheet dimensions: 176mm long by 22mm wide, with the fixing centres at 180mm and the cylinder and handle holes on the published centres. Slide the lock in, clip it home and fit the cover plates, handles and cylinder. Set the keep on the post so that the hook drops in without binding, then use the day bolt adjustment to fine tune the gap. We recommend a safety cable on all swing gates.
Keep the slots in the fore plate clear of grit, and check the handle fixings and the fit of the hook at routine maintenance. Do not oil the cylinder with a general purpose spray.
Frequently asked questions
Is everything included?
Yes. The kit includes the lock, two aluminium cover plates, the handle set, a cylinder and a stainless steel keep. You provide the box section gate and post.
Will it fit a 50mm or 60mm box section?
No, this kit is for 40mm profiles. Use the 50mm or 60mm locks and kits for larger frames, because the case and the keep are sized to the profile.
Can I use my own cylinder?
Yes, the lock accepts Euro profile cylinders, so a keyed alike set can be fitted across a site. Check the cylinder length against your gate before ordering.
Is it for sliding gates?
No, it is a swing gate insert lock. A sliding gate needs a sliding gate lock with its own catch.
