Frequently Asked Questions
What does an external cylinder lock mean?
An external cylinder sliding door lock allows key operation from the outside only. The internal handle typically retracts the locking beak without a key for exit.

No. This model is supplied without a strike. Compatible Whitco strike plates can be selected depending on the door frame configuration.
What type of cylinder does this lock use?
The W506117 uses a Whitco 10 disc cylinder supplied keyed different (KD), meaning each lock has its own unique key.
Is the Lawson lock handed?
No. The Lawson sliding patio door lock is non-handed and can be installed on both left-hand and right-hand sliding doors.
