Before you buy
A good fit starts
with your door.
A few photos. A few measurements. Get a clearer idea of which Heimgard lock is right for your home.
Have a ruler or tape measure and your phone ready. Keep the door open while checking the hardware.
Start with photos

Take these three views for any lock. Then add close-ups with a ruler beside each measurement.

AI-generated illustrative examples. Photograph your own door and hardware for a compatibility check.
Keeping your existing lock
Check your Easy Fit thumbturn.
Measure the inside fitting and the space around it. These are preliminary checks, not a guarantee of compatibility.
Measure the thumbturn
Front view / inside your home
B: thickness maximum 20 mm
Measure the grip itself, not the circular plate behind it.
Check how far it projects
Side view / existing thumbturn
Measure from the door surface to the outermost point of the thumbturn, including the plate or base. Do not start at the front of the plate.
Leave space by the frame
Front view / nearest frame edge
Measure from the centre of the thumbturn to the nearest edge of the door frame.
Allow room for Easy Fit
Side view / after installation
Check that the fitted lock will clear nearby walls and fittings as you open the door.

Check the grip shape. Easy Fit needs opposing flat gripping sides. A fully round or cylindrical thumbturn is not compatible. Send a photo if you are unsure.
