m-Genius
The m-Genius with escutcheon trim is an ideal lock for homes, offices, and commercial spaces. This mechanical lock is the only double lock that allows you to lock and unlock an interconnected deadlatch and deadbolt with ease.
When the door is closed, the lever will not retract the deadlatch or deadbolt, ensuring instant security. For additional security with the extended deadbolt, simply lift the levers from both sides or turn the thumbturn from inside your property. To re-enter or exit, simply use a key to unlock and/or push the lever downward with a single motion.
FEATURES
- Escutcheon Trim
- Interconnected deadbolt and deadlatch
