Woodframe Door Locks
The Union 1332 is a very popular lock on wooden doors. It is a security deadlock, however it does not satisfy insurance requirements here in Ireland for home and business break-in protection.
The standard reliable Chubb 5 lever mortis lock has had a name change. It is still the same high quality product as before, unchanged in its structure but now marketed under the Union brand as part of the Assa Abloy Group.
This type of lock is still the best protection on wooden doors and, crucially, satisfies the minimum level of insurance specifications. The multi-point locking systems used on PVC and composite doors and on some wooden doors vary in their resistance to forced entry. Having the proper mechanism with heavy metal deadbolts – top, centre and bottom – which have sufficient penetration into the frame of the door is essential.
