GU New Style Genuine Multipoint Gearbox – Fast Locking

Fastlocking Europa Plus gearboxes have a unique operation where lifting the handle engages the locking points without the need to turn the key. They were not available in the old-style GU locks and differ slightly from the other operation gearboxes, as the top groove is actually a separate, elongated hole and top groove.

Fast locking Europa Plus GU gearboxes are available in a 35mm backset only.

New style GU locks can be differentiated from their old-style equivalents by the shape at the top of the gearbox. Old-style locks have the top corner removed, whereas new versions feature a vertical groove to help with bolts for handles. The two gearboxes are not compatible, so a new-style gearbox will not fit on an old-style multipoint lock. Fast-locking Europa Plus gearboxes were not available in the old style locks and differ slightly to the other operation gearboxes, as the top groove is actually a separate, elongated hole and top groove.
