Door Bolts: Secure and Reliable Solutions

Door shoot bolts provide robust, dependable locking for both internal and external doors, adding an extra layer of security to doors and windows in commercial, industrial, and residential environments. 

A shoot bolt can described many different types of bolts. Here we focus on barrel door bolts, straight and cranked, plus other types of straight shoot surface fixing bolts. If you need an automatic shoot bolt for an espagnolette multipoint lock or finger-operated sliding door gear mechanism, contact our team who can help with brands such as Mila, Maco, GU, ERA, and Winkhaus.

Key Benefits of Door Shoot Bolts

With a straight sliding mechanism that slides seamlessly into a recess in the floor or frame, these bolts hold doors firmly in place, preventing unauthorised access and enhancing overall security.

Door shoot bolts offer more than just physical security; they’re a practical choice for many door types, providing ease of use and adaptable applications. Perfect for securing French doors, flush doors, and any door requiring added reinforcement, these bolts deliver peace of mind in busy settings.

Versatile Options for Every Need

Choose from various designs, including cranked door bolts, barrel bolts, and flush bolts, each suited to specific door requirements:

  • Barrel Bolt Door: Ideal for holding a door or gate closed, barrel bolts are designed to be highly durable, fitting perfectly on doors that require quick, secure locking.
  • Cranked Door Bolt: Cranked bolts provide a unique angle, making them suitable for doors that are recessed into the frame. A flat plate keep or angled plate keep is used instead of a staple keep (for flush fitting applications).
  • Flush Bolts for Doors: They’re a type of shoot bolt but you’ll find them in a different section. Discreetly fitting into the door edge, flush bolts ensure a seamless look, maintaining door aesthetics while offering maximum security. 

Wide Ranging Applications

Constructed with high-quality materials such as brass and stainless steel, door shoot bolts withstand frequent use and are essential for areas needing added security. This could be to pairs of doors in warehouses, a hospital corridor, or cupboards in offices. 

Finger-operated shoot bolts allow for quick, easy locking, particularly useful on internal doors or where regular access is needed. For heavier doors, these bolts can be fitted vertically to the bottom of the door or top for stability, offering a reliable hold. The circular shoot of a barrel bolt can be rotated when in the active position and held in place by the backplate.

Precision and Durability in Every Shoot Bolt

Whether securing internal doors, French doors, or external entranceways, door shoot bolts add substantial strength and reliability. The bolt locks provide a dependable, manual locking mechanism, ensuring that doors stay firmly in place. With smoothly operating components, these shoot bolts offer minimal wear and tear, providing value and long-lasting durability for demanding environments.

  • Additional Locking Points: Reinforce your door with a robust mechanism designed to provide secondary security to your high security door locks throughout your built environment.
  • Easily Accessible: Finger bolts in various designs make them easy to operate, perfect for busy settings. Choose the right length depending on the height of your doors.
  • Versatile Fitting: Install at the top, bottom, or sides of doors, accommodating any door configuration. Some bolts come with a range of keeps, or accessories are sold separately, so select the correct product - straight or necked - with a matching finish for your ironmongery.
