Sliding door with lock on the outside

A sliding door with a lock on the outside is ideal when you use the sliding door as an entrance and exit. This not only provides extra convenience but also more flexibility in the use of your home or garden.

Standard sliding doors

Many sliding doors in the Netherlands, however, only have a sliding door handle on the inside or room side. This means that you can only open and close the sliding door from the inside. If you also want to be able to lock the sliding door from the outside, you will need a number of specific products.

Requirements for a sliding door with a lock on the outside

"To equip your sliding door with a lock and handle on the outside, you will need the following components:"

  • Lockable sliding door handle with cylinder hole
  • Whole cylinder
  • Sliding door handles with lock

Lockable sliding door handles

"To securely close the sliding door from the outside, double sliding door handles are necessary. These handles from the brand GU are available in various colors, allowing you to match them to your interior and exterior. The variants with flat grips are particularly useful when space is limited, for example, due to the presence of a screen or roller blind."

Whole cylinder

"In addition to the sliding door handles, you also need a complete cylinder. With a complete cylinder, you can make the handles lockable on both the inside and the outside. This not only increases usability but also the security of your home."

Conclusion

A sliding door with a lock on the outside offers extra convenience and security. By installing the right sliding door handles and a complete cylinder, you can effortlessly operate and lock your sliding door from both sides. This makes your home even more practical and secure.
