A smart and functional heavy sprung horizontal mortice lock, ideal for use on larger doors where mortice knobs are required. These locks have some great features; the follower only requires a 25-degree turn in either direction to operate the latch bolt fully – this is called a short travel latching system, which means less effort to operate the knobs or handles – a quick turn opens the door rather than having to twist your hand fully. Ideal for users who are less able or smaller children. The follower is two-way and means the knob can be turned in either direction (as long as the knob specified is unsprung).
