Replacing a rim lock with a Euro profile lock

Why rim locks are not supported and what a locksmith normally needs to change for LOQED Touch or Pure compatibility.

Applies to: LOQED Touch and LOQED Pure.

Rim locks are not compatible with LOQED smart locks. LOQED requires a Euro profile cylinder/mortise lock setup.

Can the door be modified?

In many cases, a locksmith can modify the door and install an SKG*** certified Euro profile multi-point lock. This can also make the door more secure than before.

What to expect

  • A local locksmith can assess and change the door profile type.

  • A typical conversion may cost around 350 euros, but always ask for an exact quote before work starts.

  • The work may take around 2 hours, depending on the door.

Typical work included

  • Milling a slot in the door for the SKG*** multi-point lock.

  • Milling matching slots in the door frame.

  • Filling the old rim-lock hole with wood or wood filler.

  • Installing new outside door fittings, preferably with SKG*** certified core-pulling protection.
