Product Information
The HGT British Standard 5 Lever Mortice Deadlock is a robust mortice deadlock designed to meet the stringent requirements of British Standard BS3621, making it suitable for securing residential and commercial doors where enhanced security is required. This lock is engineered for locksmiths and door repair specialists who demand a reliable, compliant locking solution that offers resistance against common forced entry techniques including drilling.
This mortice deadlock features a substantial 80mm case height and a 92mm centre measurement, aligning with standard door lock preparations to facilitate straightforward installation or replacement. The faceplate measures 3500mm in length and 20mm in width, providing a secure and durable mounting surface within the door edge. Its 2.5 inch size denotes the lock case depth, an important consideration when fitting into timber or composite door types.
Key Features
- British Standard BS3621 compliant, ensuring suitability for insurance-backed security requirements
- 5 lever configuration provides reliable locking with enhanced resistance against lock picking and forced entry
- Hardened steel plate incorporated to protect against drill attacks, a common method used by intruders
- Mortice deadlock type, designed for installation within the door cavity for increased security
- Case height of 80mm and a 92mm PZ centres measurement suitable for many standard door lock cut-outs

Fitment & What to Check
When fitting the HGT British Standard 5 Lever Mortice Deadlock, verify the door’s existing mortice preparation to confirm compatibility with the 80mm case height and 92mm centres. The faceplate size should be checked against the door edge to ensure a flush and secure fit. The lock is generally suitable for timber doors where a mortice cut-out can accommodate the 2.5 inch depth of the case. Confirm the handing of the door and the lock’s handing compatibility, although most BS3621 mortice deadlocks are non-handed or reversible unless otherwise specified.
Common Ordering Mistakes
- Ordering a lock with incorrect centres or case height that does not match the door’s mortice preparation
- Neglecting to check faceplate dimensions, leading to difficulties in fitting or the need for door edge modifications
- Failing to confirm BS3621 compliance when insurance requirements demand it
- Not verifying compatibility with door thickness and handing, which can affect lock operation and installation ease
