Night Latches & Rim Locks (109)

Have you been searching for door locks that can securely bolt the door immediately after it is closed? Then consider night latch locks. Sometimes referred to as Yale locks and commonly found on glass-panelled doors, they come in broad ranges to suit all security needs and applications but are often used as an impressive additional security measure for homes.

The locks can perfectly meet BS 3621 and BS 8621 requirements. We have a wide selection to choose from, and whether you need traditional night latches, electric, British standard, deadlocking or non-deadlocking, you will certainly find a category that suits your needs. Our selection comes in different sizes and finishes, so you'll always have a lock to meet your personal preference.
Properly fitted to a door, the night latch operates through its ability to be unlocked from the exterior using a key and then deadlocked from the internal side by simply sliding the snib button, then turning the key or handle. The auto-deadlocking type becomes deadlocked when the door shuts, making it a popular choice.
In most cases, insurance companies require you to fit your door with a BS 3621 British standard lock. These locks have been designed and undergone satisfactory tests to guarantee their ability to meet minimum security standards outlined in the British standard 3621. They have been approved to offer high security to any doors on your property

BS3621 Rim Locks
Rim locks are essentially locks that are surface mounted, and therefore they do not have to be mortised into the door. They sit on the inside and interact with an external key-way which permits unlocking using a key from the outside.

The main benefit of this lock is its ability to let you simply close the door without worrying about how you can lock it yourself. They are very convenient and this makes them very popular. You only need to unlock when you enter the property and not worry about the locking.

Types of lock

Auto deadlocking

Auto deadlocking types ensure that the doors are automatically deadlocked as the door closes. As the door shuts, a trigger is initiated on the anti-thrust bolt thereby deadlocking the door to guarantee that the latch bolt is not slipped using a plastic card.

Deadlocking

Deadlocking types have a button within the door lock to be used for deadlocking, making it unlikely to open the door from the outside, regardless of whether you have a key or not. When the snib button is slid, the latch is held in a withdrawn mode.

Standard

The standard type is highly recommended by the police and insurance companies. It provides maximum level security. Featuring a TS007 1 rim cylinder and a cylinder guard, an internal lockable handle, a 20 mm bolt to provide more strength and anti-bump, anti-drill, anti-carding, and anti-pick protection.

Drawback

Properly fitted to the door, drawback locks can be locked and unlocked from the outside and inside using a key. Withdrawal mode can be effected by pulling the handle from the inside.
