ASEC Kite BS Auto Deadlocking Nightlatch

The Asec Kite BS Auto Deadlocking Nightlatch is a high-security rim lock designed to provide robust protection for inward-opening solid or glass-panelled wooden doors. This insurance-approved nightlatch automatically deadlocks upon closing, making it virtually impossible for intruders to force entry using a credit card or similar slipping methods.

For added security, particularly on doors with glass panels, the internal handle can be locked from the inside to prevent unauthorized operation if the glass is compromised. It also features a convenient snib function, allowing the bolt to be held in the withdrawn position when unrestricted access is needed. The lock is supplied with a high-security cylinder featuring an integral cylinder pull to protect against drilling, and offers over 30,000 key differs.

This British Standard nightlatch is available in multiple configurations to suit your door. Please select your preferred backset (40mm or 60mm), finish (Polished Brass, Polished Chrome, or Satin Chrome), and packaging type (Boxed or Visi) from the options below.
