Frequently asked questions about SL56 door fitting

Measure the distance from the center of the door handle to the center of the top, rounded part of the keyhole. If this is exactly 5.6 centimeters, the SL56 hardware will fit your door perfectly. If necessary, use our free Measuring Guide!
Will an SL56 shield cover the old screw holes from my previous hardware?
Our SL56 shields are often long enough to neatly conceal existing drill holes from old door hardware. Always check the total length and width of the shield in the specifications to ensure a neat result.
Does the door handle come with a key?
No, the key to the door lock is part of the lock itself, not the door handle. However, you can also choose a matching mortise lock with a key to go with your new door handle.
Are the keyholes in SL56 door escutcheons universal?
Yes, the keyway recess in an SL56 escutcheon is universally designed for all standard interior door keys. So you can continue to use your existing keys after installation.
