Here on our website you will find the right products for the security of your home. Suitable for interior and exterior doors, both at home and larger buildings.
At the bottom of this page you can read about the different types, the dimensions (such as backset and lock recess) and the brands.
Here you get an extensive range of locks from well-known, major brands at very competitive prices. Below we discuss the different types of products from well-known major brands such as AXA, Nemef and Intersteel.
There are many different types of locks available, so we would like to take you through the different types. This way you immediately get a good idea of which ones are available and which ones you naturally need for your home.
A profile cylinder is a complete lock for a door. You will receive matching keys that fit exactly into the profile. Because of the profile it is called a profile cylinder. But how do you choose a good profile cylinder lock? When choosing a profile cylinder, several things are involved, such as measuring. Measuring ensures that you can see the difference between a profile cylinder and a cylinder lock and how to install them.
Are you looking for an additional lock ? This has the SKG quality mark and is used for extra security in addition to a security lock that you have already attached. This way the door is extra protected against burglary.
You can buy additional locks from us in different designs. Why choose a side lock? Of course for extra safety. That can't hurt. Installing an additional lock is not mandatory, but it is recommended as it further improves the security of your home. If you purchase an additional lock, you are advised to opt for the Police Quality Mark for Safe Living (PKVW). It is of course a given that a door with one lock is easier to force than a door with several. It becomes even more difficult if the other lock is mounted in a different place on the door. Securing your home doesn't have to be expensive. From us you can buy locks and accessories that can secure your doors and windows very well. You can of course feel safe enough with just a security lock, but to really be sure that you are really safe, you can place an additional lock on your front door.
You also have the choice of a code lock for your home. A code lock functions optimally and guarantees the security of your home. The name says it all, with a code lock you need a code to open the lock.
If a burglar enters your yard or garden, he will not immediately walk to your front door or back door to force entry. There is a good chance that they can be seen. But this possibility is not excluded. Especially in the evening, these figures look for a place where it is dark and people cannot see them in order to force your door open. It may also happen that you are so tired that you forget to lock your door. How easy would it be if you had a door that locked automatically and no one could enter your home. With a normal door you use a key, but there are also security locks that lock your doors automatically. All you have to do is install a mechanical code lock. It looks a lot like an alarm system, but the code lock is on your door itself. If you want to open the door to enter, you will have to enter the correct code. Once you are inside and the door closes again, it locks itself and the next person who comes in needs the code again to open the door. This way you don't have to carry keys around and take the chance of losing them or leaving them somewhere.
Another reason why a code lock is also useful is the fact that you can place the lock on left- and right-handed doors. The code lock is very easy to install and program. You can also change the code. This is useful if you suspect that third parties have discovered what the code is. The code lock also comes with a release function, which means that you can open the door for a certain period of time without using your code. As you can see, using a code lock is very useful, especially if you live with several people in the house.
You can also come to us for mortise locks . We have mortise locks from various well-known brands such as: Intersteel, Nemef and Starx. We have them in different sizes and colors. The mortise locks are most commonly used to lock doors. They are called mortise locks because they are actually inserted. The mortise locks are inserted into a milled hole in the door, the side of the door that falls into the lock.
Because the lock is inserted, you hardly see it. This way you can better enjoy the rest of your door. You can install the mortise lock yourself, but you can also have it done by a specialist. A major advantage of the mortise lock is that they offer a lot of security. The mortise lock also has an SKG rating and therefore also meets the Police Quality Mark for Safe Living (PKVW).

The difference between a mortise lock and a cylinder lock lies in the fact that the cylinder lock is always a mortise lock and a mortise lock is not always a cylinder lock. Mortise locks should be seen as a group of different locks than just one type of lock. You must install mortise locks in your door. We also have various mortise locks. Just think of barrel locks and keyboard locks, for example. Please note that the cylinder lock is used on the outer door and the mortise lock is used for the inner doors. How do you choose an optimal cylinder lock? Several things are important here. Such as measuring, knowing the difference between a profile cylinder and a cylinder lock, knowing how to install it. You can read all about that here: buying a cylinder lock .

If you are going to buy locks, it is very important to carefully measure the lock recess, backset and shields. If you don't do this correctly, there is a good chance that you will buy the wrong dimensions and then not be able to use the products because they do not fit. More information about these dimensions can be found in our knowledge base. Below we discuss measuring:
This is the distance between the handle and the edge of the door. At 50 mm the handle is therefore closer to the edge of the door compared to 55 or 60 mm. The backset always increases in steps of 5 mm. Below you can see what the backset looks like visually.
This is the distance from the handle hole to the lock hole (also called a keyhole). We also call this the center-to-center distance. Below you can clearly see visually what the distance means. There are a few different types of lock openings, namely WC, Keyboard, PC and blind (blind is without lock hole / key).
With a shield we always measure the center-to-center distance, this is sometimes called the lock recess (although the lock recess actually only applies to locks themselves and not to the shield), there are a few different types of dimensions:
Below you can see how the dimensions are calculated for each type of lock.
