French door kits from Duffells provide comprehensive locking solutions designed specifically for French doors. Each kit includes multipoint locks for the active door, passive locks (also known as slave locks) for passive doors, and compatible keeps, ensuring secure and reliable operation. Ideal for timber or composite doors - rebated or plain meeting style - our French door kits simplify installations, guarantee security, and enhance door functionality. 

Our French door lock kits provide everything required to securely lock a pair of outward-opening French doors. Each kit typically contains: 

Active Door Multipoint Lock: 

Includes a central gearbox, top and bottom shoot bolts, hooks or deadbolts, and matching faceplates for secure locking into the passive door.

Passive Door Slave Lock: 

Incorporates a dedicated slave lock mechanism with top and bottom shoot bolts, compatible faceplates, and keeps for receiving active door locking points. 

Keeps and Accessories:

Essential keeps, fixings, and accessories required for a professional and complete installation.

French door kits differentiate between the two doors: 

Active Door: 

Regularly operated door featuring a multipoint lock. Lifting the handle engages locking points, with a key to secure the mechanism. 

Passive Door: 

Remains stationary, securely locked using a passive lock or flush bolts. Passive locks (slave locks) offer superior security through a euro cylinder-operated mechanism, providing secure top and bottom shoot bolt engagement.
