Locks for stable door?

[jmsgld]

Changing the front door for a 44mm solid oak stable door, well a carpenter will be

Was going to use a standard sashlock top, deadlock bottom with a bolt between the two halves of the door. I would like to keep the look quite old school with forged iron furniture, but was thinking that the smaller key of a euro cylinder and lack of draft would be an advantage. Ideally all visible metal will be black.

Anyone recommend any brands / stockists / how I can achieve this ?

Many thanks, James

Oh, with a thumb turn internally on the sashlock, and the two operated by the same key.

Thanks for the info, it's amazing how quickly, easily and quietly that guy manages to beak that lock, thankfully there is very little crime around here, so beyond satisfying the insurers, security is only a partial concern. Are traditional locks considered more secure than euro cylinders?

Aesthetics are strangely more important in this case, and everything needs to be black, which limits the choice substantially, I like the look of this one:

Another website states that the 30 30mm is suitable for a 44mm thick door (the thickness of the door in question). Was looking at the following 2.5mm thick escutcheon.

Will the above cylinder fit in any euro lock and escutcheon or is it better to stick with the same brand?

Thanks again, James

Thanks, we had chosen a few bits from them but couldn't find the locks, certainly the style we are going for.
