When ordering multiple Keyed Alike locks, only 1 set of keys are provided as all additional locks are made to work from that key.

If ordering 4 or more keyed alike locks you can have them set up as different groups. If Required: Let us know the details in the "Specific Key Requirements" field above.

The ERA Intumescent Kit is a specialist fire safety accessory designed to be used in conjunction with the ERA Fortress BS Deadlock range. This kit is essential when installing these mortice locks into fire-rated timber doors, providing the necessary protection to maintain the door's integrity during a fire.

Manufactured from high-performance intumescent material, the kit is designed to expand rapidly when exposed to heat. This expansion seals the voids created by the lock mortice, preventing the spread of flames and hot gases through the door assembly. Using a pre-cut kit ensures that the lock is fully protected without the need for manual cutting or shaping on-site, which improves installation speed and accuracy.

The kit is typically used in both new builds and refurbishment projects where fire safety standards must be met. It is compatible with 30-minute and 60-minute fire doors, depending on the door manufacturer's specific testing and certification. By isolating the metal hardware from the timber, it significantly reduces the risk of the door charring and failing prematurely at the lock position.

FAQs

When a mortice lock is installed, wood is removed from the door, which can compromise its fire rating. This kit provides essential protection by expanding when exposed to heat, sealing the lock cavity to prevent the spread of fire and smoke through the door.

This specific kit is precision-cut to match the unique dimensions of the ERA Fortress BS Deadlock. To ensure full compliance with fire safety regulations and a perfect fit, it is recommended only for use with the ERA Fortress range.

The kit includes pre-cut intumescent liners designed to wrap around the main lock body and the strike plate. This ensures that both the door leaf and the door frame remain protected at the point of the locking mechanism.

No, the intumescent material is very thin and designed to fit snugly around the lock hardware within the door mortice. When installed correctly, it does not interfere with the mechanical operation of the ERA Fortress Deadlock or the movement of the bolt.
