The Lion Head Lygon is a slimline digital door lock that opens by fingerprint, PIN code, card or fob, the phone app over Bluetooth, or a backup key. WiFi is not built in, so remote access through the app needs a Lion Head WiFi gateway. It runs on an 85 series mortice, comes with a lever or a hex knob, and suits doors 35 to 50 mm thick, including some sliding doors. Locksmiths Perth 24/7 supplies and fits it anywhere in Perth, Western Australia.

Who the Lygon suits
The Lygon is only 31 mm wide, so it sits on a narrow door frame where a wide keypad lock would hang over the edge. That makes it a good match for metal framed glass doors and back doors that open onto a patio.
It is also the Lion Head lock listed for sliding doors, as long as the door takes a mortice that suits it. If the family is always coming and going through a sliding door, the kids can use a fingerprint or a code instead of hunting for a key. You can have it with a lever handle or a hexagonal knob.
What we check before we fit it
- Door thickness. The Lygon suits doors from 35 to 50 mm. Some solid timber front doors are thicker than that, so we measure before you order.
- The mortice. It works with Lion Head 85 series swing bolt and hook mortice locks and is not recommended with a tubular latch. Lion Head sells it without a lock body, so we work out which mortice your door needs and tell you what has to change before we start.
- Sliding doors. A sliding door needs the hook mortice, and the frame has to have room for it. We look at the door edge and the frame first.
- Weather. The rating is IP55 on the outside part only, so a sheltered or undercover door is the best spot for it.
- Remote access. If you want to use the app away from home, the Lion Head WiFi gateway needs power and has to be in range of the lock. Lion Head lists its range as 10 to 15 m, so we check where it can go.
Living with the Lygon
- Batteries. It takes 4 AAA batteries. Lion Head says they last up to 12 months, depending on how often the door is used.
- Flat batteries. Plug a phone power bank into the USB C port and open it with your fingerprint or code, or use the backup key.
- The app. Up close, your phone talks to the lock by Bluetooth. With a gateway you can use the app from anywhere.
- Perth summers. Lion Head rates it to work from minus 25°C up to 60°C.
Lygon or Oxford?
Both are slimline Lion Head locks that run on an 85 series mortice. The Oxford suits hinged doors 35 to 65 mm thick. The Lygon is for doors 35 to 50 mm, it is the one listed for sliding doors, and you can choose a lever or a knob. See the Lion Head Oxford.

Common questions
Can the Lion Head Lygon go on a sliding door?
Yes, depending on the mortice. Lion Head lists the Lygon for hinged and sliding doors, and a sliding door needs the 85 series hook mortice. Send us a photo of the door edge and the current lock and we will tell you if it fits.
Does the Lygon have WiFi?
No. It connects to your phone by Bluetooth when you are near the door. To use the app when you are away from home, you add a Lion Head WiFi gateway.
What happens if the Lygon batteries go flat?
Plug a power bank into the USB C port and use your fingerprint or code, or open it with the backup key. If you are still stuck, call us on 0427 580 823, any time.
Should I get the Lygon with a lever or a knob?
Both versions open the same ways and suit the same doors, so it comes down to which handle you prefer. A lever is easier to push down when your hands are full.
