How to choose the right multipoint lock

How to choose the right multipoint lock

Buying and fitting a new lock to a door can be complicated...

What size do you need? Should you choose left-handed or right-handed? What's required for double doors? Should the lock operate on the slave or master door? Or both?

At Coastal Group we've simplified the multipoint lock section of our website to make it easier for you to browse the range and select the correct hardware for your next project.

Winkhaus multipoint locks

Winkhaus is the market leader in multipoint locks, with door locking systems offering functionality, long-term reliability and user-friendly convenience. From the innovative AV4 autolock to the high security Thunderbolt and the bespoke stable door lock, Winkhaus has home and business security all locked up.

Coastal Group has been a partner of Winkhaus for many years, offering specialist advice and guidance to customers on the best multipoint lock solution for their needs.

To meet increasing demand from customers for an online lock shop that's easy to navigate and filter, we're delighted to launch our new multipoint lock section.
