So far best video I've seen on the subject.
Fantastic overview - Thanks a ton! And shame on the other commenters for picking on the spokesperson's voice. Your voice was easily understood and enjoyable to listen to. Please disregard those idiots.

Easy on the enjoyable.
wHEN i GOT UP THIS MORNING, MY WIFE HAD WATCHED THIS VIDEO; GONE TO THE LOCAL HARDWARE SHOP; BOUGHT A NEW LOCK; FITTED IUT AMD MADE ME A CUP OF COFFEE.
Thank you! Super useful video! I just disassembled mine (one of the lock bars was not moving to the right spot) - this will help me find a replacement!
Glad it helped! If you have any more questions, we have some great customer service staff waiting for your call!
I now design these locks. Interesting video.
I replaced the euro lock on our because you would have to play with the key before it would catch. The new euro lock has to be turn about 3 or 4 times before it locked or unlocked. Would I have to replace the whole multipoint system?
Thanks for this video. Lots of good info I was seeking!
Great video and takes the mystery out of this confusing subject thanks :-)
Nice job thank you for the information. very thorough
great review. Thank you!
Excellent video - really clear and concise - thank you!
Thank you for all this info. Very helpful.
My multipoint lock door is closed and something in the mechanism broke. Deadbolt is not locked just all the other multipoints are. Is there away to get this door open without taking an angle grinder to the locks? The door hand just flops around and doesn't do a thing.
M Warren, leave us a message on our contact-us page here: www.allaboutdoors.com/contact-us or give us a call!
Very well done and extremely helpful. Thanks
Hi. My storm door won't open at all. I have the new deadbolt, but how do I get my door open to replace the old one? I'm locked in the house.
Thanks for this - good info. Our issue is the handle wont go up into the vertical position now to lock the door without a hefty whack with a wooden mallet. Could this be the internals (have you ever taken one apart to see if there is any lever wear) or could it be the other latch items in the sliders are now misaligned - its been installed about 15 years/. Thanks
Based on what you said. (Sorry for the 2 years later reply) it could be a plethora of things. Usually either the assembly or how things are dimensioned/toleranced by the engineers like myself. If you're still using the door is there a model/name of the company?
@@TheFriendlyCorgi No worries. We had the original carpenter back and on inspection, one of the levers was broken so the lock was replaced. Thanks anyway
My multipoint lock is working, but I"m going mad trying to buy handlesets for it. How do I tell if my Pella hinged door uses American or Euro ?
Great video. Question, if you pull the lever up, release it and the locks flip back into the door (i.e. don't stay extended), is that an actuator issue? I can get the locks to stay engaged if I keep the lever/handle up and turn the lock cylinder with some slight force. Many thanks in advance.
I would guess that it's more something internally -- springs or whatnot-- that are worn out from use. If you're having those kinds of issues, I would consider replacing it repairing soon, though, before it gets stuck and you need to drill it out :/
Is it possible to replace this type of system to a tradition dead bolt & knob type of set up?
Could you even drill out holes for traditional dead bolt and handle/knob?
Yeah, you can. You'll just need to fill the routed-out edge of the door with something or another plate or whatnot.
Hi.
I'm needing to replace a part on my door lock thats similar to this. Where can I find pieces to this type of door. (Mine has no brand name :(

Hi would you happen know of a multi point system lock that can be installed in iron doors
Which Hoppe multipoint lock system is featured in this video? I can’t find that exact match on your website and I have that exact same system and lock.
it's been a few years, but I believe it is a HOPPE Tongue lock. It would have been one of these: www.allaboutdoors.com/Products/Multipoint-Locks/Hoppe-Lock-Hardware/Hoppe-Tongue-Version-Multipoint-Lock We can help you find the multipoint lock you need though, even if that isn't correct! We have experts ready to help. Please contact us here: www.allaboutdoors.com/contact-us
Can you tell me what brand and model # of the exact lock set in your video that would be awesome. I need to replace one on a remodel project and have been searching high and low.
Thanks

great vid. clear and efficient explanation. thank you.
I have a roto brand door and I'm having trouble finding a replacement for the handles
Send us a picture through our site (allaboutdoors.com, and we will be able to find you one!)
Do you know what key style Jeld-wen uses on their 2500 series clad wood french doors?
Hi! I assume by key style you mean keyway? Like Schlage, Kwikset, etc., but that is completely dependent on the handleset brand/type that is installed.
@@AllAboutDoorsandWindows I see. Thanks for replying
@@JenkemDungeon Of course. Let us know if you need any help finding a handleset, key, cylinder, etc.
I love that these locks are super secure and run right down the length of the door, but then there's a full glass pane on the door right next to it.
Haha yep. They are very stable though and apt for high wind areas, like on the coast. Keeps your door from warping within the frame because it's held securely in multiple spots instead of just in the middle at the deadbolt.
Mine have become windows after it was 15 degrees out the jam swelled and snapped the stupid mechanism
If you ordered your lock from us, please give us a call and we should be able to walk you through repairing or replacing it! allaboutdoors.com
I have the thumb lock and when I take out the screw to change it , it still doesn't come out.
Did you make sure that the cam on the cylinder is facing down? That will keep you from being able to just pull it out. If it is a 360 degree cylinder, you should be able to just turn it until it slides out. If it is a 90 degree, there is a tool you need to use to release the cam so it can be moved to point downwards.

Can I send you pictures of this lock. Once the screw is out I have turnt the key in every angle and the barrel is not moving
Yeah sure. You can attach it to the contact-us form here: www.allaboutdoors.com/Information/Contact-Us
What’s the deadbolt work with multipoint lock?
Hi Lillian, can you clarify your question? I'm not quite sure what you're asking, but I'd like to help if possible!
Thanks!
I sent a message to this company but, NEVER received any info. back.
I hate these locks! Every single one of mine has failed within a couple years.
Well. What's going on with them? If they're a lock within HOPPEs designs I can always look into the issue as a newer engineer there ;) any input of what's failing is quite appreciated so that I can hopefully improve the designs for y'all.
I thought her voice was very clear and easy to understand. Go figure.
She has a slightly grating voice, but it is easily understandable. I know a local actress with a rural Kentucky accent that is easily understandable and can make door looks sound sexy.
Difficult to understand the voiceover. Need a voice who can speak clearly.
Pretty shitty comment.
Why? Madhu is right. She sounds like most American women do...as if a gerbil is being castrated without anaesthetic. @@barnyardstory
@@woodwhittler7582 Congratulations an even more ignorant post! Did it occur to you that: a) she may have a speech impediment, b) The audio recording is shit, c) TH-cam sound algorithms and compression of audio affect sound quality? Of course not.
You've got cloth ears and/or didn't bother to read what I wrote. You are showing your bigotry in your response. Nearly all American women speak like a gerbil being castrated without anaesthetic. They can't all have a speech impediment.@@barnyardstory
This voice!!
The thylinder
If you don't like the voiceover, please turn off the sound and utilize the captioning feature. thanks!
@@AllAboutDoorsandWindows nah it was good
@@iamnumber5ps3 But you'll make fun of her speech...
@@barnyardstory thats okay
