The GU Key Wind multipoint door lock is designed for enhanced security and durability, featuring a robust configuration of 4 rollers, 1 deadbolt, and 1 latch. This lock is ideal for both UPVC and aluminium doors, ensuring a reliable locking mechanism for your home or business.
Key Features:
-
Unique Design: The lock is equipped with a 10mm spindle and a 4 roller configuration, providing optimal performance.
-
Brand Recognition: Often referred to as "Ferco" or "GU Ferco" by some suppliers, the GU lock is easily identifiable by the logo stamped on its faceplate.

Compatibility: If you're replacing an old lock, be aware that GU has transitioned from an older style to a new design. The new style features a vertical groove at the top of the gearbox, while the old style has a corner cut out.
-
Replacement Options: If you have an old style lock, you may be able to repair it with a replacement gearbox. However, for a complete lock replacement, the new version can be installed with minor adjustments to the deadbolt and latch keeps.
-
Handle Adaptability: To replace handles, use part "SPINSLEEVE10" to convert the spindle from 8mm to 10mm, allowing compatibility with standard handle sets.
