Product overview

Fullex Type A Replacement Gearbox

Need to fix your Fullex multipoint door lock? The Fullex Type A centre case gearbox is the mechanism inside your door that is operated by the handle. It is the part most likely to fail when a uPVC door lock stops working.

Replacing just the gearbox is far more cost effective than buying a complete new multipoint lock. The centre case simply re-attaches to your existing locking strip, so you do not need to replace the entire mechanism.

Key Measurements

The most important measurements to check before ordering are 37mm Backset and 68mm PZ (the distance between the handle spindle and the keyhole).

This gearbox is non-handed, which means it fits both left-handed and right-handed doors without modification.

Spindle Options

Single Spindle — for lever/lever handle operation (handles on both sides of the door).

Split Spindle — for lever/pad handle operation (restricts access from outside, ideal for

front doors).
