Hinged multipoint locks are advanced locking systems specifically designed for hinged doors, offering superior security by engaging the door frame at multiple points,typically at the top, center, and bottom. Unlike standard single-point locks, these multipoint systems use a combination of a central latch, hooks, and/or shootbolts to secure the door tightly, reducing the risk of forced entry and improving energy efficiency by creating a stronger seal against drafts and moisture.

How Hinged Multipoint Locks Work

When you operate a hinged multipoint lock,usually by lifting the handle and turning the key,a central deadbolt and additional hooks or bolts extend into the door jamb. This action locks the door at three or more locations, distributing pressure along the length of the door and providing greater resistance to prying or kicking. The result is a more secure, weathertight, and long-lasting door solution, ideal for residential entry doors, patio doors, and hinged French doors.

Key Features and Specifications

  • Multi-point locking engages at least three locking positions: top, center, and bottom
  • Available in active (keyed) or passive (non-keyed) versions
  • Compatible with American and Euro cylinder profiles
  • Options include gearboxes, shootbolt extensions, latch cases, and concealed rod systems
  • Designed for wood, vinyl, fiberglass, or aluminum hinged doors

Use Cases and Door Compatibility

These multipoint locking systems are commonly used in new construction, replacement, and upgrade applications for hinged entry, patio, and French doors. They fit a wide range of door materials and are compatible with brands that use AmesburyTruth hardware. Whether you are replacing a failed gear mechanism, upgrading worn latches, or adding weather-tight security, our collection supports the most common backset sizes and faceplate styles.

For example, the P2000 active lock case and P1000 active gearbox are direct replacements for standard 45/92 mortise lock bodies used in many residential doors. For enhanced locking, the Ashland XP25 3-point shootbolt model provides additional top and bottom security. Concealed rod and shootbolt extensions, like the active concealed rod mortise lock, are also available for doors requiring hidden hardware and clean aesthetics.

Installation and Replacement Tips

When replacing a hinged multipoint lock, measure the backset (distance from edge to center of handle) and the handle-to-cylinder spacing to ensure compatibility. Most systems are designed for straightforward replacement, but matching the faceplate style and rod/bolt lengths is important for a proper fit. If you need only to replace the internal lock case or gearbox, select the part that matches your door's configuration for either American or Euro cylinder options.

All parts in this collection are genuine AmesburyTruth hardware, ensuring reliable operation and long service life. As an authorized reseller, we provide authentic replacement components, not generic substitutes, supporting both DIY repairs and professional installations.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is the difference between active and passive multipoint locks?
    Active locks are operated with a key or thumbturn, providing full locking and unlocking control. Passive versions are typically used on secondary doors in double door setups, engaging only when the active door is locked.
  • How do I know which lock case or gearbox I need?
    Check your door's backset measurement and cylinder type. Common sizes like 35/92, 45/92, or 60/92 indicate millimeter spacing and will help you match the correct replacement part.
  • Can multipoint locks be installed on any hinged door?
    They are designed for compatibility with most modern wood, vinyl, or fiberglass hinged doors, but always verify your door's measurements and hardware layout before ordering.
