ERA 261 Fortress - BS 5 Lever Deadlock (67mm) Reviews

Good product makes life easier

Bought two keyed alike locks. Prompt delivery and good service. Many thanks

The lock came with some very helpful dimensions for fitting. Very quick and easy to fit and it works beautifully, smooth locking action it feels and looks a very quality product.

Thanks

A great product at a great price

Excellent product for a bargain price. I’m happy to recommend the product and definitely used again.

I bought a two ERA 261 locks with matching keys, which were a revelation after trying a couple of Yale locks. The ERA locks were well designed and came with an assortment of fittings, including, screws and plates and seemed to be of good quality manufacturing. The mechanisms were very smooth and reassuring, with no sticking and no wiggling of the keys needed. As these are five lever deadlocks I have the assurance of knowing they meet insurance industry standards. Lastly, the most amazing part of all this, is the price - they were cheaper than the afore mentioned Yales, so were they good value? You bet.

Looked locally and wasted time, great product and price. Had six keyed alike and turn around was better than quoted

Excellent service good strong locks very reasonable price quick delivery

Great locks, solid and secure. What I was looking for.

Excellent. I received exactly what I expected. Good quality at a good price

After hearing of a number of break-ins in my locality, I had in mind to make my home safer. I researched the available options and had noted the features I was looking for to meet my requirements.

I then mislaid my bunch of house keys which immediately threw me into a panic. I returned to my computer and checked my choice and ordered online.

I spent a restless night thinking about where my keys maybe, somewhere out there in the world. Maybe I had dropped them on my drive or near the house, and someone had picked them up and was waiting for an opportunity to enter at night. I later found my keys in the house but not before I had fitted my new lock.

When I ordered my ERA 261 Fortress - BS 5 Lever Deadlock (67mm, Satin Chrome) from Safe I did not expect it to arrive so soon. It was easy to fit and looks great. Its laminated bolt had a longer throw than my old one and I am pleased it did as it means more door frame resistance against anyone trying to kick the door in. I needed to chisel a little more wood out of the hole but it was done in no time and two deft strokes of a file to the edge of the existing strike plate removed a slight stiffness. It was really easy!

Every night when I lock the door and go upstairs I get into bed with a contented feeling. I am so pleased with my decision to buy that lock and that I chose Safe as my supplier; great value!

I am sure that anyone selecting the lock they need from the wide Safe lock range will agree with me once theirs is fitted. The lock was not expensive and certainly worth every penny I paid. Great product promptly delivered - my thanks go to the team at Safe!

I am very pleased with the lock it is good quality and easy to fit

A very well made product. Most impressive is the extension of the bolt when locked, the longest I have seen in its class. Can highly recommend.

Delivery was very quick and post and packing costs reasonable.

Straight swap for one fitted. Bought with a second lock for stable style back. Keyed alike to make it easy to use.

We bought this as a direct replacement for an old lock. It meant a little bit of chiselling to make it fit, but no special tools were required. Fits great and locks well. The locking bar is quite long - giving a good sense of security. Will buy again.

Yes looks a good reliable product, well built and easy to fit

As a carpenter I can confirm this is a pretty robust lock for the Monday. I would recommend it and would purchase again

Product very good. Found it very easy to fit.

Great product and easy to fit (I am a joiner however) would get the same again if needed more. And had a pair keyed alike which was a great bonus.

Good

Exactly what I wanted, thanks

I already had two of these in my front door, so it was easy to remove the old ones and install these. They are solid, good quality and good value for money. They were dispatched promptly too. I recommend them highly.

It arrived promptly & very easy to fit very happy with it would recommend it

Big plus for me was easy identification on Safe website, of lock required.

This was essential as I was replacing a lock in my holiday home in Spain, and I’m not a gifted locksmith

Lock arrived promptly for my flight, and changeover was totally simple.

Our home is fully secure again, well at least the front door is.

This is an excellent lock. Worth 5 stars for everything. I only didn't give 5 stars for everything, as fitting to a rebated door is never easy and, actually, I imagine that all locks are a bit of a challenge in this regard, but as I have only fitted Era locks I wouldn't know. A very pleasing aspect is that when the key is turned in the lock it makes a very metallic sound giving the clear impression of a product where precisely engineered parts are moving into place. Yes I would definitely recommend the Era fortress to anyone wanting peace of mind in a lock.
