• The 2.5 inch 'standard' 3 lever or the 'insurance rated' 5 lever sash locks are the popular choices

• You would also require a pair of 'escutcheons' or 'key hole covers'. Please note that escutcheons are always sold and supplied in singles NOT pairs

• If your fitting a British 'standard' sash lock (these are supplied with long 'chubb' style keys), you will require 'standard profile' escutcheons. 'Euro' & 'oval' profile escutcheons are actually cylinder covers, for European style key cylinders.

IF YOU REQUIRE HINGES:

• Most joiners recommend 3 hinges per door as opposed to 1 pair. This gives a firmer fix to the door frame and can help guard against the potential issues of the door warping, due perhaps to changes in the environment

• For internal doors, the 3 inch ball bearing hinges are the popular choice. Ball bearing hinges provide a very smooth action when opening or closing the door

• For external doors or fire doors, the 4 inch ball bearing hinges are usually recommended

• All of our ball bearing hinges are available in various finishes to match that of your chosen door handles or door knobs
