McGrath Windsor Fire Rated Smart Lock - 4-in-1 Access, 60/70mm Adjustable Latch
The McGrath Windsor is a versatile, non-biometric digital smart lock built for Australian residential, commercial, and retrofit applications. It offers four access methods - keypad PIN, RFID card or tag, Bluetooth eKey via the McGrath Locks App, and mechanical key override - with broad hardware compatibility that makes it a strong choice where fire-rated compliance, installer flexibility, and long-term local support all matter. For an overview of how each access method works, see our guide to smart lock access methods.
The Windsor is fire assessed up to 2 hours on Firecore and E-Core doors. Fire performance is system-based: it is achieved only when the lock is installed as part of an approved doorset configuration with a compatible latch or mortice. The lock is supplied with a McGrath 60/70mm adjustable tubular latch and is available in Matt Black and Satin Nickel.
Usually same day if ordered before 11am AEST (excluding weekends and QLD public holidays).
DDA compliance on the McGrath Windsor is achieved by fitting the optional DDA-compliant external levers. To convert the baseline Windsor to a DDA-compliant configuration, add the matching external and internal DDA handles for your chosen finish to your basket alongside this lock.
DDA lever handles - add to basket to make the Windsor DDA compliant: Terry's Locksmiths can pre-fit the DDA-compliant levers during installation, as correct fitment can be a little tricky. The DDA levers can be added on this product page or added to your cart during checkout. When fitted, the DDA levers meet BCA AS 1428.1-2009.

McGrath Locks ML Windsor Fire Rated
I was searching for a digital locks that can be installed on apartment unit's entry door, however the hurdles of fire rating (annual compliance) was an ongoing barrier. The McGrath Windsor digital lock was the only unit which had fire rating compliance and the added features which suited my needs. Very happy with the product (quality and software features) and a shout-out to the seller Terry's Gold Coast Smart Locks, as their post-purchse support was awesome. They even made sure after I had received my order, that I was happy with my purchase and asked if I had any enquiries. Great after sales support is always a big plus! I would highly recommend the product and even more on the Seller. The product's battery life is still uncertain, but the user can always check the battery level via the app, only time will tell on the duration of the battery and the durability of the product. But so far so good.
