Hardware Options

Multipoint Hardware Door Sets

Choosing multipoint door hardware offers significant advantages over traditional single-point locks, making it an excellent investment for enhanced security, durability, and energy efficiency. Our multipoint locking systems feature three or more locking points along the door, providing superior resistance to forced entry and ensuring a tighter seal against drafts, moisture, and noise. This not only improves insulation and reduces energy bills but also maintains proper door alignment and smooth operation, minimizing wear and tear.
