Product overview

GU New Style Replacement Gearbox

The GU New Style centre case gearbox is the mechanism inside your uPVC door that is operated by the handle. It is the most common part to fail when a GU multipoint door lock stops working.

Replacing just the gearbox is far more cost effective than buying a complete new multipoint lock. The centre case re-attaches to your existing locking strip.

Key Measurements

The most important measurements are 28mm or 35mm Backset and 92mm PZ.

This gearbox features a reversible latch and is non-handed, fitting both left and right-handed doors.
