Choosing a Sash Lock for Lever Lock Handles

Every Heritage Brass lever lock handle has its keyhole at 57mm centres, the distance between the spindle and the keyhole, to suit a standard UK mortice sash lock. A sash lock has a latch worked by the handle and a deadbolt worked by the key, all in one lock body.

For internal doors such as studies, home offices and utility rooms, a York 3 lever sash lock is the usual choice. For external doors, or where your insurer asks for it, fit a York BS3621 5 lever sash lock.

Using a cylinder lock instead? Choose the euro lock or oval lock version. For doors that do not lock, see latch door handles on backplate.

Standard or long

Choosing a Backplate Size

Heritage Brass lever lock backplates range from about 152mm to 247mm long. Check the Dimensions on each product for the exact size.

Standard plates of around 150mm to 190mm, such as Victoria, Windsor and Edwardian, suit most panel doors.

Long plates of 200mm and more, such as Bauhaus, Waldorf and Saturn Long, make a statement on tall doors and cover large marks left by old handles or locks.
