MULTI-POINT LOCK HAVING A FLUSH-MOUNT CYLINDER

摘要

A multi-point lock having an easy to install modular drive mechanism for bolts located at the top and bottom edges of a door in which the multi-point locking system is installed that requires only relatively simple door preparation. The bolt operating mechanism is installed into a rectangular groove cut into a lateral edge of a door which may be cut using relatively simple tools in relatively quick fashion. The multi-point lock is configured to fit doors of any size, with a single kit accommodating doors of different thicknesses, in each case, with the plug-face of the lock cylinder substantially flush with a major face of a backplate of a handle set used with a particular door.
