Lion Head Lonsdale digital door lock

Who the Lonsdale suits

The Lonsdale is the one to look at for a door that gets a lot of use. Lion Head calls it commercial grade, and it comes with its LHL-SW-MORTICE-6068 heavy duty mortice in the box. It suits a small office, a workshop or the staff door of a shop. It works on a house front door too.

With room for 200 fingerprints, 150 PIN codes and 200 cards, each staff member can have their own code. When someone leaves, you delete their code instead of chasing a key.

What we check before we fit it

• The mortice pocket. The supplied mortice needs a pocket cut into the door edge. If your door has a small tubular latch now, we tell you what has to change before we start. It also works with Lion Head tubular latches and its 5050, 6050 and 85 series mortice locks if one of those suits your door better.
• The long plate. The outside part is 370 mm tall. That covers a lot of old holes, but we check it lines up with your door and any glass panel.
• Door thickness. 35 to 65 mm.
• Weather. IP55 on the outside part only, so a shop front facing the afternoon sun and rain needs a talk first.
• How the door closes. A heavy door that drags or bangs shut wears any lock. We tell you if the door or closer needs adjusting.

Living with the Lonsdale

• Batteries. 4 AA batteries. Lion Head says up to 12 months, but a busy door will use them faster.
• Flat batteries. A power bank in the USB C port gives it emergency power, or use the backup key.
• Out of hours. With a Lion Head WiFi gateway you can use the app from home. Without one, the app works by Bluetooth at the door.
• Temperature. Rated from minus 25°C to 60°C.

Lonsdale or Nicholson?

Both open the same ways and hold the same number of users. The Lonsdale is the commercial grade lock with the heavy duty mortice included and a much longer plate. The Nicholson is shorter and is sold without a lock body, so it suits a house door with a tubular latch. See the Lion Head Nicholson.
