Keyless / keycode lock for Munster Joinery uPVC multipoint lock door

Salthillprom · 06-02-2019 03:08PM #1

Hi, would anyone know of a keyless lock system that would work on a Munster Joinery multipoint uPVC door (new door)?

I thought a Yale system might work but I see a thread saying it doesn’t.

I’ve tried phoning MJ (no response on the matter) and I’ve emailed them. No reply.

Has anyone bought a keyless system for this type of door? I need a keyless or keycode system as I’ve various people coming and going throughout the day and can’t give out keys in case they get copied.

Thanks

I was looking for something along these lines a little while ago and couldn't find anything suitable.

In general there's very few options that fit multi-point locks, and the ones that are there aren't good.

Yale had a keypad option but it's now discontinued. They have a keyless option, but it required either their app or a fob...and it's reported to have a very high failure rate, with a lot of people getting locked out or their door not locking or not staying locked.

There were a few other options from no-name companies which looked a bit flimsy. I couldn't trust that personally, especially for such a new product which clearly has a lot of bugs that nobody has been able to work out .

It's hard to believe that there isn't a mature, reliable option out there for something that is technically achievable and must have a huge potential market, but it just doesn't look like there is.

What about a proper magnetic door closer, which means you still have the physical lock after hours so to speak, just knock off the power to the mag closer at night/when not required [ of course keeping the location of switch to your self

assa abloy do a professional lock thats electronic and fits but with an access control reader youd sink almost a grand into it, if youre willing to lose multipoint locking there is an option of a deadbolt receiver and a modification to the lock but it depends.

Thanks for all of the responses. I was hoping for a solution that would cost at most €300/€400. Can’t believe there’s nothing out there! Will look into some options described here. Thank you.
