GU EUROPA Tripact Multipoint Locks with Tongues

GU Tripact Europa Tongue Multipoint Locks for Door Replacement

The GU Europa Tripact series represents a proven approach to multipoint door security, utilizing tongue bolts that extend horizontally into the door frame for a secure hold. MPLocks carries these locks alongside compatible replacement options for doors originally equipped with GU Ferco hardware. The Tripact design engages all locking points simultaneously when you lift the handle, providing straightforward operation while maintaining strong resistance against forced entry and door panel warping. Whether you're replacing an original lock on an Atrium door from 1995-2006 or updating a KML installation, this collection includes the gear and extensions needed to restore full functionality.

American Cylinder Compatibility for Easy Installation

GU Tripact Europa locks are designed for American cylinder systems, eliminating the need for specialized Euro-profile hardware common in other multipoint locks. The standard 5-pin cylinder uses a 90-degree key turn to engage the deadbolt, making these locks familiar to most homeowners and straightforward for locksmiths to service. This compatibility also means cylinder replacement and rekeying can be performed using readily available parts, reducing long-term maintenance costs and simplifying repairs when keys are lost or security needs change.

Replacement Solutions for Discontinued Hardware

Several original GU Tripact models have been discontinued, but MPLocks stocks direct replacement options that restore full security to your door. The Atrium tongue multipoint lock serves as a modern replacement for older GU Tripact units, featuring the same 35mm backset and 92mm PZ spacing while maintaining compatibility with existing door preparations. When exact replacements aren't available, our team can help identify alternative solutions that work with your specific frame cutouts and strike locations.

Choosing the Right Backset and PZ Measurement

Selecting the correct GU Tripact lock requires measuring two critical dimensions: the backset (distance from the edge of the door to the center of the cylinder) and the PZ spacing (distance from the center of the handle to the center of the cylinder). This collection includes options with backsets ranging from 35mm to 60mm and PZ measurements of 70mm or 92mm. Measure your existing lock before ordering, as these dimensions must match your door's existing cutouts. Most residential applications use the 92mm PZ configuration, while the 70mm PZ is typically found in European-style preparations.
