3R35 Mortice Locking Latch
Purpose
To provide a secure latch, operable by handle from one side, and by key from the other, for use on
wooden doors where auto locking / latching is required.
Overview
Mortice lock with formed-up case, welded forend and flat cap screwed to pillars in the case.
Upright lock with follower for handle vertically above keyhole, and snib follower vertically above
that.
The lock is designed to have a handle on one side of the door only (special half-sets of furniture).
In “latched only†state i.e. having just pushed door to, the bolt can be withdrawn by means of the
handle (from inside) or by partial turn of the key (from either side). A full turn of the key in the
locking direction effectively deadlocks the handle which can then only be released by a full turn in
the opening direction. The snib (above the handle) can be used to hold the bolt in the withdrawn
position.
