Hoppe 16mm Tongue Shootbolt Assemblies

Complete HOPPE 16mm Tongue/Shootbolt Multipoint Lock Assemblies

When older Hoppe or Fuhr tongue/shootbolt multipoint locks reach the end of their service life, finding the right replacement can be challenging—especially as original components are discontinued. MPLocks stocks these complete HOPPE HLS9000 16mm tongue/shootbolt assemblies specifically for homeowners and professionals who need to restore full functionality to their European-style entry doors. These assemblies fit into the existing mortise pocket of your door, making them practical solutions for upgrade or replacement projects without major door modifications.

5-Point Security in a Single Assembly

Each tongue/shootbolt assembly in this collection delivers robust 5-point locking through a combination of two tongue latches, two shootbolts at the extreme top and bottom positions, and a central deadbolt. This distributed locking arrangement secures the door at multiple points along its height, significantly improving resistance to forced entry compared to single-point locks. The shootbolts extend into the door frame at the furthest points from the handle, creating maximum leverage against prying attempts.

Direct Replacements for Discontinued Lock Systems

Many of the original Hoppe and Fuhr tongue/shootbolt locks have been discontinued, leaving property owners searching for compatible solutions. These replacement kits are engineered to work with existing cutouts and strike positions in most cases, minimizing installation complexity. The 45mm backset and 92mm PZ (handle-to-cylinder distance) configurations match the most common European multipoint specifications, ensuring broad compatibility with existing Hoppe-compatible handlesets.

Selecting the Right Assembly for Your Door Height

Door height is the critical measurement when choosing a tongue/shootbolt assembly. These kits are configured for specific door heights—such as 79-1/2 inch and 93-1/4 inch doors—because the shootbolt positions must align precisely with the strike pockets in your frame. Before ordering, measure your door height and note your current handle height position. The 36-inch handle height option suits standard residential applications, but confirming your existing handle center-to-floor measurement ensures the new lock aligns with your current handleset.
