Is Tedee Pro Compatible With My Door?

Will Tedee work on my door? Well lets find out. To start, you will first need to make sure you have a European style door lock. Please check your lock cylinder. Does it match the Euro style cylinder or the American style cylinder?

If your cylinder matches the Euro style, please move on to the next step.
If your cylinder matches the American style, unfortunately this option won’t work for you and you will need to contact us at 727-386-4629.

Step 2: Standing on the inside, does your door open inward or outward?
When leaving, do you push or pull the door open? 
If you pull the door, it is an inward opening. If you push the door, it is an outward opening.

If your door opens inwards, it’s great because it allows easier compatibility. But there’s one more thing if your door opens towards a wall. Keep in mind that Tedee may hit it if a smart lock sticks out from the door more than a handle. You can easily solve this by installing a door stopper.

If your door opens outwards, please measure the following two dimensions:
1) The door Frame Width – dimension of the gap in the entrance, with the door open.
2) The distance between the cylinder center and the door frame.

Once you measured the distance between the frame and the center of the cylinder, compare it with the options below to learn your compatibility:

Less than 30mm to Door Frame: We’re sorry, but Tedee would most likely hit the door frame when opening. We advise you not to install it.

30 to 35mm to Door Frame: Everything is fine as long as your door frame inner width is a standard 90cm or wider. If that’s correct, you can move to the last step. If it’s less than 35.5” wide, the distance between a keyhole and the door frame should be 35mm or more.

If its More than 35mm: You are good to go!

Step 3: The last thing to check is if your cylinder sticks out of the escutcheon for at least 2mm. Such distance makes a space for the adapter to fit. Please see the dimension below.

If it sticks out more, you’d be able to install Tedee securely. Your are ready to go!

If your door opens outwards and the cylinder sticks out more than 5mm, or the escutcheon is more than 3mm deep, we advise ensuring that the keyhole-to-frame distance is at least 35mm. It is the dimension we measured in the previous step. In closer setups, the smart lock may hit the frame when opening.

Suppose your European cylinder protrudes less than 2mm or features a built-in thumb turn on the inside. In that case, default adapter installation is not possible. Please contact us to see if there is a solution.
