This part is discontinued and is no longer available.
However, part: 2093896 is a potential alternative. This alternative is the Cobra version of the Winkhaus passive lock but should interchange with the original.
This passive lock is designed to be used on the passive door of a pair of French doors with the main door being fitted with a Scorpion multipoint door lock.
The Winkhaus Scorpion lock is easily identified by its central latch and hook bolt. All other Winkhaus multipoint door locks feature a central deadbolt or latch only. Scorpion multipoint locks are available with split spindle operation, which can also be used for lift lever operation.
Winkhaus Scorpion locks are predominantly fitted to PVCu doors. They will also feature either 2 hooks as the additional locking points and are available with or without rollers for weather sealing and compression.
The quickest way to identify the product, before removing it from the door, is to check the faceplate. You'll spot a Winkhaus logo and, often, a Secured by Design logo. The Scorpion version will be identified by the central hook bolt and non handed hooks.
Usefully, all Winkhaus locks feature the same routing details. Therefore, if you wish to change the locking operation, or upgrade to automatic locking, its a straightforward process. New keeps and handles may be required.
All Winkhaus gearboxes, apart from the AV4 measure 185mm high x backset + 15mm, making them the smallest gearboxes on the market. They measure 64mm between the latch and hook bolt and 63mm from the spindle to the top of the gearbox. They also feature a groove above the spindle to aid in the fitment of handles with a screw above the lever.
Winkhaus Cobra locks always feature a latch and deadbolt in the gearbox. They are available in lift lever, split spindle and key wind operation. These are easily identifiable by the sticker on the side of the gearbox. If the writing is blue, This is lift lever, if its green, then the lock is split spindle, whereas red means key wind. We often will only stock the green, split spindle locks, where both a lift lever and split spindle version are available. This is because the split spindle can be used as a lever operated lock by inserting a solid spindle all the way through the follower. There's also no price difference between the locks, so the added versatility of the split spindle lock makes it a suitable replacement for a larger range of locks.
Winkhaus gearboxes are attached to the faceplate with a set of rivets. These can be easily removed and replaced for gearbox swaps but makes Winkhaus relatively unique (and therefore easier to identify) in the market. Please refer to our guide and video on how to replace a Winkhaus gearbox for full details.
Please note that you may have encountered a really old Winkhaus gearbox that is attached to the faceplate with screws, with a passivated yellow finish. The sticker on the side (red = key wind and blue = lift lever) will denote the operation of the lock. These locks were handed and are no longer available.
