Helpful Tips
- No cylinder - free exterior entry: The lever retracts the latch without a key. If keyed access is required refer to the Cylinder and Lever variant (20201NA/98).
- Lever 96 vs Lever 98: The Lever 96 version (20205NN/96) offers a wider range of finishes including Marine Grade, Oil Rubbed Bronze and Polished Brass.
- Exterior plate - pairs with 203 Series: This is the outside face plate. It must be paired with a 203 Series interior plate (round corner) - not a 201 Series. The interior plate must use visible fixings.
- Handing: Determined by which side the hinges are on when facing the door from outside. Left hand = hinges on the left.
- 202 vs 200 Series: The 202 Series has 10mm radius round corners. For square corners refer to the equivalent 200 Series plate.
- Thick doors: For doors 45-55mm, order long fixing screws SP2000-208 separately.
