FAQ - About our nightlatch


Unlike traditional nightlatches that sit on the surface of the door, our lock is fully morticed into the door, providing enhanced security. Additionally, our deadbolt mechanism is much more secure than a latch. While a latch is a passive locking mechanism that can be bypassed in under 30 seconds, a deadbolt offers a much stronger barrier against forced entry.


Yes, the auto-deadbolt nightlatch has a snib button below the bolt that can be moved up to temporarily disable the automatic deadbolt, allowing easy access when you're coming in and out of the house.

Yes, all Finfort locks can be keyed alike. This means that two or more locks—whether on the same door or different doors—can be operated with a single key, providing added convenience and security. Additionally, the Auto-Deadbolt Nightlatch can be keyed to the Manual Deadbolt in our Dual and Triple Door Lock Sets, offering a seamless locking experience across multiple locks.


A door pull is a plate that can be fitted to either the internal or external side of the door. If you don't have an internal door handle, we recommend using one door pull. If you have a door knob on the external side, a door pull isn't necessary, but you may choose to add one for aesthetic purposes.

The main difference lies in the type of cylinder, which changes how the door is opened. The Auto-Deadbolt Nightlatch is opened with traditional keys, while the Smart Auto-Deadbolt Nightlatch offers the added convenience of smart technology, allowing you to control and monitor access remotely via your smartphone. Both products feature the same mechanical automatic deadbolting functionality. Additionally, the traditional cylinder in the Auto-Deadbolt Nightlatch can be swapped out for a smart cylinder at any time in the future.





What Our Customers Say

Robert Jones B&B entrance · easy for guests
★★★★★

Stylish and simple for guests

We needed a deadbolt nightlatch for our B&B entrance as part of refurbishing the entrance, something stylish but also straightforward for guests, easy to close without fuss. Finfort fitted the bill perfectly. We're delighted: it ticks every box, the quality materials really show, and it's a far more elegant solution than traditional nightlatches, genuinely enhancing the door. The service was excellent too, kept informed on delivery and a thoughtful follow-up afterwards. Wholeheartedly recommended.

Heidi Louise Hyde Georgian townhouse · easy with kids
★★★★★

Quality Lock


Recently bought and very pleased with the quality, it works brilliantly and was easy to fit. It's made our mornings so much easier: no waiting around with late-running kids, we just pull the door shut and go. It also looks great on our Georgian townhouse door, and it's a world away from the horrible Yale-type lock we didn't want.



George Petrides Contemporary door · fitted by an architect
★★★★★

An architect's choice

As an architect with over 40 years in construction, this is the only lock I'd consider right for a contemporary door. Being fully morticed, it avoids the unsightly interior box most escape locks have. Beautifully engineered, easy to fit, and the Finfort team gave full support throughout.
