Door Locks, Multipoint & UPVC, Multipoint LocksAvantis Latch Deadbolt 2 Hooks 2 Rollers Double Spindle Multipoint Door Lock (top hook to spindle = 540mm) – Shootbolt Compatible
This Avantis multipoint door lock features 2 Rollers, 2 Hooks, 1 Deadbolt & 1 Latch.
The Avantis 550 Series French door lock is easily recognised by it’s unique latch and deadbolt configuration.
Avantis locks have the largest hooks on the market at 25mm.
This is the standard version but a narrow locking position version is also available.
Avantis multipoint door locks are one of the easiest locks to identify before you have removed it from the door. They feature an unusual configuration where the deadbolt sits above the latch.
Avantis locks are specifically designed for the UK residential door market. They feature a 25mm throw and a direct drive deadbolt in the main gearbox whereas most gearbox deadbolts from other manufacturers only throw 20mm. The Avantis deadbolt also features 5 grooves and is chamfered for improved compression.
Also, 16mm faceplate locks are compatible with shootbolts.
Established in 2006, Avantis is a relatively new multipoint lock manufacturer, so demand for repairs and replacements is beginning to grow. The business was established by the former CEO of Millenco, so while the brand is new, there is plenty of expertise available in the UK market.
Avantis gearboxes are unique in the market, featuring a distinctive grooved deadbolt sitting above the latch. The deadbolt measures 30mm high and extends 25mm when thrown. The distance from the bottom of the deadbolt to the top of the latch is 60mm and the latch is 24mm high.
These gearboxes are available as a double spindle with centres at 92mm and 62mm. Therefore, they can be used with a double spindle nightlatch functionality (often used on front doors) or as a standard lift lever, using the top spindle only (commonly used on back doors). The spindles feature a unique cross shape but they also accept a normal 8mm spindle.
Gearboxes measure 220mm high x backset +15mm. Be sure to allow for 2mm when measuring the backset on a lock that already has the faceplate fitted.
Gearboxes are fixed to the faceplate using 4 screws. One is above the deadbolt, with 2 screws between the latch and deadbolt and the last screw is located below the latch. They measure 47mm from the top to the 2nd screw hole, 40mm from the 2nd to 3rd and 42mm from the 3rd to 4th screw hole.
Avantis are proud to state their hooks are the largest on the UK market and provide the highest level of security. They are chamfered to ensure that the door is pulled to the frame, to enhance weather sealing. Also, hooks on Avantis locks throw in opposing directions.
Rollers are used for compression, to pull the door against the frame, to help prevent dust or water ingress. They do little for security, but they also have the added benefit of helping to prevent the door from becoming warped as it is supported across its full height. This is dependent on the rollers being engaged into their keeps.

Accado Style Latch Deadbolt 4 Roller Multipoint Door Lock

Door Locks, Multipoint & UPVC, Multipoint LocksAccado Style Latch Deadbolt 4 Roller Multipoint Door Lock
This Accado Style multipoint door lock features 4 Rollers, 1 Deadbolt & 1 Latch.
Accado Style multipoint door locks are made by Turkish manufacturer, Accado. They were imported into the UK and fitted onto PVCu doors sold by B&Q, although it has been some time since B&Q have sold doors with these locks fitted.
While this lock is relatively obscure, there are many doors with this lock in use. It’s relatively easy to identify by its 85mm PZ (centres) measurement and 4 roller configuration. It also features a latch reversal instruction sticker on the side of the lock case and some variations have Accado stamped on the faceplate.
Multipoint locks with 85mm PZ are rare in the UK but are common in Europe and the rest of the world. The 4 roller configuration of this lock makes it a useful product to replace an existing 85mm centre locks, where the centres cannot be changed, even if they are not Accado branded.
Sold in Turkey with 25mm, 28mm and 35mm backsets, this lock was fitted to PVCu doors in the UK with a 35mm backset and 16mm faceplate. The rollers are positioned at 308mm and 824mm above the spindle and 300mm and 806mm below the spindle.
Unfortunately, handles are harder to source, so if the handles are damaged on your door, we would recommend swapping the lock for a 92mm PZ version, repositioning the roller keeps and fitting new handles.
Accado gearboxes are distinctive because of their 85mm centre measurement. Newer versions have the top corner of the gearbox cut out with a groove for handle fixings, whereas older versions feature a curved top. Also, the older versions are no longer available but they can be interchanged with the new gearbox.
Certain versions of this gearbox also feature a black plastic cover on one side (with metal on the other side).
Accado Style gearboxes measure 225mm high by 51mm wide. They were only available with a 35mm backset when fitted to doors sold by B&Q. The deadbolt is 31mm high, projecting out 13mm when thrown, and the latch is 25mm high.
These gearboxes are only available with lift lever functionality.
Accado Style locks feature traditional, round rollers with minimal adjustability.

Roto Elite Heritage Latch Deadbolt 2 Deadlatches Auto Locking Multipoint Door Lock
Quick View
Door Locks, Multipoint & UPVC, Multipoint LocksRoto Elite Heritage Latch Deadbolt 2 Deadlatches Auto Locking Multipoint Door Lock
This Elite Auto multipoint door lock features 1 Deadbolt, 1 Latch & 2 Autolatches.
Elite automatic multipoint door locks cover a wide range of different applications. They feature a unique trigger which, when activated by closing the door, throws auto deadlatches to eliminate the need to lift the handle when locking the door. They are available in standard and “Heritage” (where the gearbox is higher up the door) configurations.
As these locks engage without the need to lift the lever, as would be necessary on a traditional multipoint lock, they are often fitted to modern timber and composite doors with pull handles where the euro hole is covered by an escutcheon. These locks are made in Europe and feature a “Silbear” coating which offers 480 hours salt spray protection.
Identifying an Elite lock starts with the faceplate, which should be stamped with an Elite logo. The gearboxes feature a slot and a small hole below the slot, just above the top spindle, which is a piercing for bolt through handles.
Automatic locking multipoint locks have the added benefit of always having the locking points engaged at the top and bottom as well as the the middle of the lock when the door is closed. This differs to a traditional multipoint lock, where the user may not always throw the locking points, leaving the door closed only by the central latch. As the door is not held against the frame across its entire length, this can lead to doors becoming bowed or warped over time as they are exposed to the elements. Automatic locking multipoint locks help alleviate this issue as when closed, the door will be automatically held against the frame in the middle, top and bottom of the door. This helps to ensure the door stays straight and true.
If these locks look familiar, that’s because they are. Elite took over the manufacturing of these locks from Roto-Frank when they discontinued the range. They use the same tooling, with the exception of the new Silbear coating, they are made to the same specification as the original locks. You may recognise them from our catalogues as the MVD range or “Roto mark 2” locks. Gearboxes cannot be changed with the original locks but they do offer a relatively simple complete lock swap.
Elite automatic gearboxes are available as a 35mm or 45mm backset, single spindle lock. There is no need for a double spindle version as that feature is not used on an automatic locking gearbox. The same gearbox is used for both standard and heritage versions of the Elite automatic gearbox.
Elite gearboxes measure 200mm high x backset + 19mm. Be sure to account for 2mm for the faceplate when measuring the backset.
Gearbox deadbolts project 20mm and are 32mm high. The latch is 30mm high and projects 10mm. The distance between the bottom of the latch and the top of the deadbolt is 63mm.
Centres are positioned at 62mm and 92mm with the top spindle being 122mm from the bottom of the case. Single spindle locks have a round hole where the second spindle would usually be located. The gearbox is pierced to accept a bolt through fixing 19mm from the top spindle, and the slot above for fixings is 42mm above the spindle.
Elite auto latches feature an activation snib, that when triggered by the door hitting the keep, fire latches to secure the door. The cases for these auto latches measure 145mm high h x 45mm wide.
The same auto latches are used on both the flat and radius faceplate locks. Heritage versions of the Elite automatic lock feature a 3rd auto latch where the main gearbox would be positioned on a standard lock.
