Recessed Door Lock No name Z217, narrow profile 72/34 mm, right-hand key operation

The recessed door lock No name Z217 with a narrow profile 72/34 mm is a mortise-style lock designed for right-hand key operation. It is intended for installation inside the door edge to provide a compact, flush-mounted locking solution for interior or exterior doors. The mechanism supports key-operated locking and has a narrow case suitable for doors where limited edge depth requires a slim lock body. The unit is compatible with wooden and metal doors and is supplied configured for right-hand (right-side) installation.

Advantages

This recessed lock offers a low-profile design that preserves the door’s visual lines while providing mechanical latching and secure key operation. Its narrow case minimizes routing in the door edge and simplifies installation in thin stile doors. The right-hand configuration reduces the need for on-site adjustments when used on right-handed doors. Materials and construction are intended to deliver consistent latch action and reliable key engagement for regular residential and light-commercial use.

Suitable for

• Interior room doors where a flush-mounted lock is required
• External doors of light construction where a narrow mortise lock is needed
• Wooden doors with limited edge thickness
• Metal doors with compatible mortise preparations

How to use

Prepare the door edge by cutting a mortise to accommodate the lock body with the specified profile dimensions. Insert the lock into the pocket with the latch aligned to the strike plate location, secure with screws through the faceplate, and fit the key cylinder and handles as required. Verify right-hand handing orientation before installation to ensure correct latch movement and key operation. After installation, check the latch and deadbolt (if present) for smooth action and proper alignment with the strike plate on the frame.

Usage recommendations

For reliable long-term performance, use a properly sized strike plate and ensure precise mortise cutting to avoid binding. Periodically lubricate the keyway and moving parts with a graphite or light lock lubricant and tighten mounting screws if they become loose. Confirm door handing prior to purchase and installation to match the lock’s right-hand configuration.
