Quality lock, easy to install
A sturdy, well built and quality lock. Came with clear instructions, drill template and various bits needed to install the lock. Followed suggestions in the other reviews and: - did not bother with the pilot holes for the security screws, they went in fine without and will likely have a stronger grip. - used my own 18mm drill spade (for some reason a 19mm spade is provided even though the instructions ask for 18mm).

Great lock, but the enclosed drill bits are useless!
In the box you'll find the following: Lock assembly 5 keys Lock keep 8qty, T30 anti-tamper security screws T30 Security screw bit driver 2qty PH1 no3 stainless screws 19mm wood drill bit (useless) 4.5mm general drill bit (not sure what for) Chrome plated escutcheon 2 self adhesive drill templates Fixing instructions Lock dimensions: Lock barrel length from housing backplate (max gate thickness 74mm) Bolt throw RH mounting 81mm Bolt throw LH mounting 84mm Now the lock feels substantial, with its 18mm square bolt and the black powder coated housing and lock keep, both equally as heavy duty. Installation is relatively painless, after modifying my gate by adding a block of white oak to carry the new lock, the first thing I noticed, the self adhesive template struggled to stick to a soggy, rough sawn garden gate, nevertheless a bit of gaffa tape later I started to drill the two required 19mm holes that the lock goes through. Once drilled I moved onto mounting the lock, now it's worth mentioning that, as with most pressure treated wood, it's soft, with that the instructions called for me to drill the holes with a 3.5mm drill bit, yet the one enclosed was a 4.5mm, regardless that predrilled holes would only later weaken the screws grip of the gate timber I just sent the screws straight in, even the ones that went into the bone dry oak, with the use of a 9yo cordless drill, sank in without hesitation. The lock keep has a plastic insert with a sprung tab that is there to minimize gate rattle in high winds and looks like it should be OK in the long run, just make sure in installation that it's the correct way round before fastening down as the lock bolt will not fully lock if it's the wrong way. I had added some red grease to my lock just to help it in the long run, the lock barrel is a bespoke type and unlike common lock barrels that have a cam which turns with a key, this barrel uses a sprocket that drives the pin via its predrilled holes (as seen from underneath the bolt) this type of barrel is not a common variety on the market so would probably be hard to source. I did like the included anti-tamper screws (as I planned to use coach bolts, and may still swap two out later on the lock) but both of the drill bits included were a waste of time as the 19mm one bent while drilling the first hole, and had I used the enclosed 4.5mm drill bit, they would have opened the mounting holes too much and resulted in remounting the lock a second time leaving holes all over the place. Ive still rated it as a 5 star as the product is better than I expected and I would buy either this one again or another from this range now, granted the included drill bits were a bit useless but using my own wasn't a deal breaker as I already expected to use my own.

Brilliant quality lock.
Absolutely perfect — everything you need is right in the box, including the fantastic bits! It's very sturdy and well-built, with a secure lock that you can rely on.

Thoughtfully assembled kit, with a few flaws
This is a really neat and thoughtfully packaged kit, The lock body itself is sturdy powercoated steel, and quite confidence inspiring, it comes with long, decent sized,stainless steel tamperproof screws, and importantly, also with a driver bit. There's a decent, oversized keep with a plastic liner, again with tamperproof screws, and a polished stainless steel escutcheon. There's a pair of drilling template stickers for alignment (one left one right handed), decent written instructions (in good English, for those that consider such things important). And finally, it comes with a pair of drill bits: One presumably a pilot drill for the screws, the other spade bit for the lock body. The problem, is the drill bits were the wrong size. the pilot drill was 5mm, and the spade drill was 19mm. The (clear) instructions stated the drill for the screws should be 3.5mm and the spade for the lock body should be 18mm - okay this is probably a bit pedantic, but for the hard of thinking if you used the 5mm pilot drill, it would spoil your day as you'd probably find the security screws would then pull out of even slightly softer would without much effort. As it was I had the right drill bits in my toolbox, so fitting wasn't much of a problem at all. If I was being really picky, I'd also say the steel escutcheon could do with a bit more de-burring, but that's really super fussy. All in all I like the thought that went into the kit, but the attention to detail needs a bit of work.

Well worth the money
This is a brilliant lock it's very well made and has everything you need, drill bit, pilot drill and hex bit. the stick on template make it so easy. I had to add some plywood to the back of the shed door to build it up and make the door stronger and the whole job only took about an hour.

Good quality and easy to install
Very good quality lock. Easy to install…the trickiest bit was drilling the hole due to our gate and the placement of it as it fell between 2 overlapping pieces of wood as well as the included drill attachment being of poor quality and buckled but otherwise really easy to install. Includes a template which was so useful. Would recommend!

Solid, works nicely, reasonable cost - all good!
Nicely built, convenient drilling templates. I chose the version with a key both sides as the bolt moves freely and can be slid sideways on the thumb-turn version. (That's just how the euro cylinder works, pity there isnt a side mounted button that you have to depress to turn the handle or something..) The supplied tooling is a nice idea, but the flat bit they supplied was not sharp! I used my own.. Quick tip, when locked the bolt protrudes more than you might expect, if your gate opens next to a wall, I suggest you lock the bolt, offer it up to the gate and mark its position before using the template to drill the holes!

Built like a tank!
I've fitted this fabulous lock to our garden shed and my partner and I both agree it's a great piece of kit. Well worth the extra cost compared with cheaper offerings. Built like a tank and likely to outlive its owners. Highly recommended!

Super robustes Torschloss. Einfach zu montieren, alles mit Dabei. Werkzeug zum Bohren des Loches für den Schließzylinder, Bohrer zum Vorbohren der Schraublöcher und incl. Torx für die Befestigungsschrauben. Einfach top.

I bought this lock for a shed that faces an alley and needs security. Its simple enough to install with the supplied template...the 19 mm bit included leaves a lot to be desired, so I used a hole saw instead. The screws are security style and the bit is included. With the 5 included keys, it saves a step of getting extra keys cut. The bolt is 19 mm square and solid. The entire set is superior quality.

Love these. Thought i needed a keyed lock but this one is far enough down that you'd need a ladder to get over it. The guys that put the fence in installed them. They were here a long time and probably lost money. I'm not exactly sure why.

...doch wirklich jeden Euro wert. Schon beim ersten Anfassen merkt man, wie hochwertig dieser Artikel verarbeitet ist. Beim weiteren auspacken sieht man dann auch, das der erste Eindruck nicht getäuscht hat und der Preis absolut gerechtfertigt ist. Denn hier bekommt man nicht nur ein formschönes Schloß, sondern auch direkt alles an Anbaumaterial dazu, was man für eine problemlose Montage braucht. Angefangen von 2 selbstklebenden Bohrschablonen, über 2 verschiedene Holzbohrer, bis hin zu Spezialschrauben und dem dazu passenden Bit. Somit braucht man nur noch eine Bohrmaschine oder einen guten Akkuschrauber, um das Schloß innerhalb weniger Minuten problemlos anzubauen. Obwohl ich in sowas Laie bin, gelang mir das auf den Fotos hervorragende Ergebnis innerhalb von nur 15 min. und meine anfänglichen Montagezweifel lösten sich bei der Montage direkt in Luft auf. Dank des ganzen Zubehörs ist das Schloß somit also eher günstig und ich kann es nur jedem empfehlen, der was Schönes sucht, was absolut einfach anzubauen ist. Ich würde es jederzeit wieder kaufen und war beim auspacken schon super begeistert.
