Winkhaus Cobra 45mm 2 Hook Multipoint Door Lock

The Winkhaus Cobra 45mm 2 Hook Multipoint Door Lock is engineered for homeowners seeking a dependable, long-lasting security upgrade for uPVC, composite and timber entrance doors. Built by the renowned Winkhaus brand, this system combines smooth operation with enhanced protection, utilising a euro-cylinder lock type positioned at the centre of the mechanism. Designed with a 45mm backset and a 92mm (PZ) centre, it provides a precise and secure fit while maintaining compatibility with standard uPVC, composite and timber door setups. The lock box features both latch and deadbolt locking, offering a strong primary engagement point, while two additional hooks positioned at 735mm above the centre and 755mm below ensure reinforced locking along the full height of the door. With a 1490mm hook-to-hook measurement and an overall length of 2105mm, the mechanism offers excellent stability across the entire faceplate.

The square-ended 16mm faceplate ensures a clean, professional aesthetic, while the split spindle configuration supports lift-lever operation—ideal for households prioritising ease of use and everyday reliability. As a non-extendable system designed for uPVC, composite and timber door installations, the Cobra mechanism provides consistent performance without the need for modification or adjustment, making it a favoured choice for both replacements and upgrades.

Routine maintenance helps keep your multipoint lock working smoothly, and we recommend applying GT85 periodically to lubricate the gearbox and moving components. This not only maintains the effortless lifting action but also prolongs the overall lifespan of the mechanism.

Upgrading your multipoint lock is also a perfect opportunity to refresh other key security components on your door. Many customers choose to pair this system with a new euro cylinder, and opting for a high-security 3-star cylinder can significantly improve protection against modern break-in methods. You may also want to explore our range of door handles, allowing you to enhance both security and the visual finish of your entrance with a coordinated, stylish upgrade.
