These mortice types are not interchangeable. Door type, pitch, backset and lock geometry must match the lock system being installed. Sliding hook mortices are for sliding doors only, while the 6068 smart mortice uses a different 68mm pitch and should not be confused with standard 85mm Euro mortice systems.
