Buyer Questions This Page Should Answer
What's the difference between a sliding lock and a standard mortise lock?
Sliding locks (WC/PZ types) are designed specifically for sliding doors, typically bathroom or room doors, and require a matching sliding handle or escutcheon sold separately. Standard single latch and deadbolt locks are for hinged doors.
Do I need to order the handle separately?
Yes — for sliding locks such as the Sliding Lock WC DIN Left/Right (SKU 9228482), the handle or escutcheon must be ordered separately from the lock body.
What does "backset" mean and why does it matter?
Backset is the distance from the edge of the door to the center of the lock spindle or keyhole. Hettich's special locks come in common backsets of 50mm, 55mm, and 60mm — matching the correct backset to your door prep is essential for proper fit.
What is DIN Left/Right compatibility?
DIN (Deutsches Institut für Normung) left/right designations indicate the lock's handing based on door swing direction. Most Hettich special locks are available for both left and right hand doors.
What is an Allen key tubewell lock used for?
It's a deadbolt-style lock operated with an Allen key rather than a standard key, commonly used for tubewell covers, utility doors, or applications needing a compact, tool-operated locking mechanism.
What finish do these locks come in?
Most special locks use stainless steel (SS 304) components, including satin finish handles and stainless steel faceplates, chosen for durability and corrosion resistance in bathroom and utility settings.
Is roller catch different from a latch lock?
Yes — a roller catch uses a spring-loaded ball mechanism for smooth, secure door closing without a key or deadbolt, while latch and deadbolt locks provide locking security.
