Asec Five Lever Sashlocks (BS3621 :2007)

The Asec 5 Lever Lock Extra Key service provides additional, precision-cut keys specifically designed for Asec 5 lever mortice locks. These keys are engineered to interact correctly with the internal lever mechanism of both sashlocks and deadlocks, ensuring a smooth rotation and reliable bolt throw without the friction or sticking often found with lower-quality duplicates.

This service is commonly used during the installation of new locking hardware when the standard key allocation is insufficient for the number of users. It is a practical solution for residential homes with multiple occupants, as well as commercial properties where various staff members require site access. By sourcing extra keys directly compatible with the original lock, users avoid the risk of premature wear on the internal levers.

• Suitable for use with both insurance-rated BS3621 and standard 5 lever locks.
• Direct compatibility ensures the longevity of the lock cylinder and internal components.
• Ideal for landlords, property managers, and large households requiring multiple access sets.

Using correctly specified extra keys is essential for maintaining the operational life of the door hardware. These keys are cut to the precise depths required by Asec mechanisms, preventing the mechanical failures that can occur when using poorly matched aftermarket blanks.

The Asec Sashlock Rebate Kit is a specialist accessory designed to facilitate the installation of sashlocks into rebated double doors. When doors feature a stepped meeting stile, a standard lock cannot be fitted directly without this hardware. This kit provides a purpose-made solution to house the lock and strike plate, ensuring they are perfectly aligned for secure operation.

These kits are primarily used in timber door applications within both domestic and commercial environments. They are suitable for new door sets or as part of a hardware upgrade, providing a cleaner and more professional finish than hand-fashioned timber packings. By maintaining the correct alignment of the locking components, the kit helps to preserve the structural integrity and security of the door set.

The components are manufactured to exacting standards to match the mechanical requirements of Asec sashlocks. This ensures that the latch and deadbolt can transition smoothly between the door leaves, providing a reliable locking action and preventing unnecessary wear on the internal lock mechanism.

The FIRESTOP Intumescent Kit is a critical safety component designed specifically for use with the Asec 5 Lever British Standard Sashlock. When hardware is morticed into a fire-rated timber door, the core integrity of the door is compromised. This kit provides a heat-activated seal that restores that fire resistance by expanding to fill the gaps between the lock body and the timber leaf.

Manufactured from high-performance intumescent material, the kit includes pre-cut liners for the lock case and the strike plate. In the event of a fire, the material reacts to heat, insulating the lock hardware and preventing the spread of flames and hot gases through the door assembly.

Typical applications include commercial and residential settings where fire safety compliance is mandatory. It is suitable for both new installations and as a retrospective upgrade to ensure that the door assembly remains compliant with FD30 and FD60 fire ratings. Using this kit ensures that the installation meets the necessary safety specifications required for timber fire doors.

The Mortice Lock Drill Bit Kit is a specialised set of tooling designed to facilitate the precise installation of mortice sashlocks and deadlocks. By providing the essential drill bit diameters required for standard lock bodies, this kit ensures that the mortice cavity is bored to the correct depth and width with minimal effort.

The kit features flat wood bits which are ideal for the rapid removal of material from timber door stiles. These bits are designed to create clean, straight holes that accommodate the lock case without causing splitting. The inclusion of a pilot bit allows for accurate marking and initial drilling, which is critical for maintaining the structural integrity of the door and ensuring the lock operates correctly.

Commonly used by joiners and locksmiths, this kit is suitable for both new door installations and when upgrading existing hardware. It is compatible with most standard power drills, making it a versatile tool for residential or commercial door preparation.

The Blue Spot 4 Piece Wood Chisel Set is designed for a variety of woodworking tasks, ranging from fine paring to general-purpose shaping. Each chisel features a blade manufactured from hardened steel, providing the necessary strength to withstand repeated impact and maintain a sharp cutting edge over time.

These chisels are equipped with precision ground blades, ensuring accuracy during intricate joinery work. The handles are constructed from a durable plastic with a textured, grooved finish to provide a secure and comfortable grip, reducing the risk of slipping during use. Each handle also includes a hanging hole for efficient workshop organisation.

This set is an essential addition to any toolbox for tasks such as creating recesses for hinges, cleaning out mortises, or paring down timber. The bevelled edges allow for better access when working in tight corners or narrow joints, making them suitable for both DIY enthusiasts and tradespeople alike.
