TSS 3 Lever Mortice Sashlock

The TSS 3 lever mortice sash lock is perfectly suited for use on internal wooden doors. It provides a standard level of security at an extremely affordable price.

Featuring one of the smallest lock cases on the market, this lock is ideally suited for retro fit applications on wooden doors.

In line with a number of other mortice locks, these locks feature a black lock case but they have unique measurements that identify them from other mortice locks. Please refer to the line drawing for details.

This mortice lock is available in either polished brass or polished chrome finishes in boxes or in clam packs for retail display.

Please always ensure that your door is sufficiently thick to accommodate the mortice lock that you are fitting. The Master Locksmith Association recommend a minimum thickness of 44mm.

A lever mortice lock prevents a door from opening by throwing a bolt from the lock into a metal keep or strike, fitted to the frame. Once the bolt is engaged in the keep, a hinged door is prevented from being opened. A mortice lock bolt is locked or unlocked from either the inside or outside by a key. Inside the lock, there is space for the bolt to be retracted. If the cuts in the key match the levers inside the lock, the user will be able to turn the key to throw (to lock) or withdraw (to unlock) the bolt. If the wrong key is used, the levers will not line up and the lock will not operate.
