GU EUROPA Cremona Multipoint Lock with Shootbolts

GU Europa Cremona Shootbolt Locks for 3-Point and 5-Point Security

The GU Ferco Europa Cremona series represents a proven solution for residential and commercial entry doors requiring robust multipoint locking. These shootbolt-style locks feature vertical bolts that extend from both the top and bottom of the lock case, engaging directly into the frame header and threshold for secure anchoring at three points. MPLocks carries these locks as direct replacements for existing GU Ferco systems or as components in new multipoint lock installations where shootbolt security is preferred over hook or roller mechanisms.

Expandable Security with Shootbolt Extensions

One of the key advantages of the Cremona shootbolt system is its ability to be combined with additional extension components to create 5-point locking configurations. By adding shootbolt extensions to the existing 3-point setup, you gain two more locking points for enhanced resistance against forced entry. This modular approach allows installers and homeowners to upgrade security without replacing the entire lock mechanism, making it a practical choice for both new installations and security improvements on existing doors.

Multiple Backset Options for Proper Fit

Selecting the correct backset is essential for a successful replacement. The GU Europa Cremona shootbolt locks are available in backsets ranging from 1-3/8 inch (35mm) to 2-3/8 inch (60mm), accommodating various door stile widths. Before ordering, measure from the edge of the door to the center of the keyhole to determine your required backset. This measurement ensures the lock case aligns properly with your existing door prep and strike locations.

Key-Below-Handle Configuration

All Cremona shootbolt locks in this collection feature the key cylinder positioned below the handle lever. This is standard for many European-style multipoint systems and affects which handleset trim will be compatible with your installation. When selecting replacement handle trim, verify that it accommodates the key-below configuration and matches the screw hole spacing of your door. If you're unsure about cylinder placement or handleset compatibility, the MPLocks team can help you confirm the right components before you order.
