Identifying Your ERA Lock
Recognizing an ERA multipoint door lock can be straightforward, but be cautious of rebranded versions.

Look for the ERA logo on the faceplate, but remember that some brands may have altered the logo or color of the holdback snib.
Key Features
-
Gearbox Design: The distinctive square design of the ERA gearbox, measuring 221mm in length, ensures compatibility across various models. The backset options include 30mm, 35mm, or 45mm, with all gearboxes sharing the same dimensions.
-
Locking Mechanism: The split spindle mechanism simplifies replacements, focusing on one locking function. Note that certain models, like SureFire locks, operate differently.
-
Interchangeability: Most ERA gearboxes can be interchanged, allowing customization based on client needs. If a hook lock is required instead of a deadbolt, we can build the lock to order.
Security Features
ERA multipoint locks come with two hook locking arrangements: a standard hook for tight spaces and a larger security steel hook for enhanced protection. Both hooks are bi-directional, providing superior security by throwing upwards and downwards.
