Active concealed rods and multipoint locks are engineered hardware solutions that deliver strong, tamper-resistant security for hinged and sliding windows or doors. These systems utilize active locks and concealed locking rods mounted inside the sash or frame, providing multi-point engagement that's hidden from view for a streamlined, aesthetically pleasing finish. They're commonly used in residential entry doors, patio doors, and commercial fenestration where robust security and clean design are priorities.

Where Active Concealed Rods & Locks Are Used

Active concealed rods and locks are ideal for modern windows and doors that demand high security along with an unobtrusive look. They are frequently installed in:

  • Aluminum, vinyl, or wood swinging doors
  • European-style tilt-turn windows
  • French doors and multi-panel entry systems
  • Commercial storefronts and high-traffic residential doors
Their multi-point engagement distributes locking force along the frame, greatly improving resistance to prying and forced entry versus single-point locking systems.

Installation and Replacement Tips

When replacing or upgrading active locks or concealed rods, it's critical to match the backset, faceplate style, and rod dimensions to your existing setup. These parts are often specific to the original window or door brand and model. Always measure carefully and choose hardware that is compatible with your sash thickness and mounting configuration. If your door uses a 60/92 mortise lock, consider this coupling-compatible rod. For units with a radius faceplate, you might need this radius faceplate model or a 70/92 version. No-faceplate designs are available for custom installations, such as this multipoint rod.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between active and passive locking rods?
Active rods are connected to the operating handle or key mechanism and physically engage or release the lock when turned. Passive rods usually remain fixed or are engaged by the active side in dual-panel systems.

How can I identify the correct replacement part?
Check your current lock's dimensions, faceplate style, and mounting configuration. It's helpful to reference the original brand and model or consult a detailed product diagram before ordering.

Are these rods and locks suitable for DIY installation?
Many experienced DIYers can install these parts with standard hand tools, but precise measurement and alignment are crucial for proper function.
