Have a ruler or tape measure and your phone ready. Keep the door open while checking the hardware.

Which lock are you measuring for?

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.

01

Measure the thumbturn

Front view / inside your home

A B
A: length approximately 35 mm
B: thickness maximum 20 mm
Measure the grip itself, not the circular plate behind it.
02

Check how far it projects

Side view / existing thumbturn

43 mm max.Door surface
Maximum 43 mm
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.
03

Leave space by the frame

Front view / nearest frame edge

32 mm min.
At least 32 mm
Measure from the centre of the thumbturn to the nearest edge of the door frame.
04

Allow room for Easy Fit

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.

Replacing the lock

Measure the door itself.

For Entry Lock and Smart Lock Fingerprint, start with the thickness of the door leaf.

05

Measure across the door edge

Open the door / measure between its two faces

Door thickness
Door leaf: 40–94 mm
Measure between the inside and outside faces. Do not include handles, plates or decorative trim.AI-generated illustration based on real door references. Not to scale. Measure your own door.

Door thickness

40–94 mm

Measure from one face of the door leaf to the other. Do not include handles, lock plates or decorative trims.

Photograph the measurement clearly. The lock case, strike plate and complete hardware configuration also need to be suitable.

Entry Lock and Smart Lock Fingerprint bodies: 220 × 55 × 24 mm (height × width × depth). Body depth excludes the handle. Check the full handle clearance and use the installation template.

Entry Lock & Smart Lock Fingerprint

Designed for Scandinavian doors.

Entry Lock and Smart Lock are built around established Scandinavian door preparation, using SS 817375:2018 as their dimensional design basis. A familiar format for a smarter front door.

This Swedish standard defines recess dimensions for symmetrical lock cases and their strike plates. Check the measurements and existing hardware, rather than the age of the door, to confirm the right installation path.

Start with the 50 mm backset.

Measure from the lock faceplate plane at the door edge to the centreline of the cylinder and handle openings. The vertical centre spacing is 105 mm. These checks concern the replacement lock case, not Easy Fit.

Door face

50 mm 105 mm centre to centre

Door edge

Lock-case faceplate: 225 × 22 mm (H × W). The visible metal strip on the door edge, not the concealed lock body. Check recess clearance against the installation template.

Strike-plate face height: 200 mm. Check the supplied strike plate and frame preparation.

Use the Heimgard installation template to check the complete preparation. These dimensions are a starting point, not a drilling template or confirmation of fit. The standard reference is not a security certification. Simplified views, not to scale.

Look along the door edge

One locking point, or several?

Single-point

The latch and deadbolt sit together in one area of the door edge.

Entry Lock replaces a compatible single-point lock. Smart Lock Fingerprint also supports compatible single-point installations.

Multipoint

Hooks, rollers or bolts engage at several positions along the edge.

Smart Lock Fingerprint supports selected multipoint installations. Send your door-edge photo so the existing mechanism can be checked.

For fire-rated doors, escape routes or certified door sets, confirm suitability with the door supplier or a qualified installer before changing hardware.

Your next step

Let us check it with you.

Send your inside, outside and door-edge photos, plus your measurements and the model you are considering.

Do not send PIN codes, passwords or account credentials. Final compatibility depends on the complete door and lock configuration.
