Matte black back door hardware on escutcheon

Matte black back door hardware on backplate. SKG security hardware in handle/handle configuration for modern back door

Matte black back door hardware on an escutcheon is security hardware for a back door (garden door, rear entrance) in a handle/handle configuration. A handle on both sides of the door is used to operate the lock. This differs from front door hardware, where a fixed knob or grip is always mounted on the outside (so that the door cannot be opened without a key). For a back door, operation with a handle from both the inside and the outside is acceptable because the lock itself determines the locking mechanism. It is more practical for a garden door where residents frequently enter and exit. The matte black finish suits modern villas, industrial loft interiors, factory building conversions, and sleek new builds where the back door feels visually identical to the front door.

• Front door. Outside a fixed knob or handle (cannot be pressed), inside a lever handle. Locked via cylinder lock. Safest configuration: cannot be opened without a key.

• Standard escutcheon. Full-size 235-300 mm elongated, for standard rear door.
• Short escutcheon (AXA Edge Plus Short). Shortened by 200 mm, for a compact rear door or where visual detailing needs to be subtle.
• Narrow escutcheon (AXA Edge Plus Narrow). Narrow format 35-40 mm wide, for narrow doors or glass doors where standard width does not fit.

What is core pull protection

Core pulling protection is a recessed steel ring around the cylinder core that prevents a burglar from securing a screw or claw wrench in the cylinder core and forcibly pulling it out of the lock. Core pulling is responsible for approximately 60% of successful cylinder burglaries in the Netherlands. Core pulling protection is mandatory for SKG3 classification.

How do you measure back door hardware

Four dimensions determine the fit: door thickness (38-65 mm), PC dimension (55/72/92), spindle size (8 mm square standard back door), and escutcheon dimensions (long/short/narrow). When replacing existing hardware, send a photo of the door and a photo of the old hardware with a ruler to info@deurbeslag-expert.nl.
