Why have a High Security Euro Cylinder

Most uPVC and composite doors are fitted with a cylinder lock with revolving cam. Turning the key revolves the cam, which engages the doors locking mechanism. The design has inherent weaknesses but a high security cylinder, like Yale Superior, can protect against them. Three reasons to buy a high security euro profile cylinder:

• Protect your property - high security cylinders are a physical and visual deterrent
• Insurance compliance - failure to use an Insurance Approved cylinder could invalidate an insurance policy
• Peace of mind - trusting a high security lock means you can rest easy at night

EXTRA KEYS - 3 keys are provided with single cylinders and 6 keys with keyed-alike pairs as standard. Additional keys, which are cut using genuine Yale blanks, can be ordered with the cylinder.

Technical Information

What size do you need?

It's vital that you order the correct size cylinder for your door. To determine which size cylinder you require you must first remove the cylinder.

Removing existing cylinder

1. Put your key in the lock and open the door.
2. Remove the screw which is beneath the latch.
3. Turn the key while apply slight pressure to the opposite end of the cylinder. As you do so the cam will line up with the rest of the lock and you will be able to slide the cylinder out towards yourself. The key usually needs to be turned approximately 25 degree clockwise or anti-clockwise.

You can now measure the original cylinder.

Measuring the existing cylinder

On the side of the cylinder, under the cam, you will see a Fixing Hole. The size you require is determined by the distance from each edge of the cylinder to the centre of the fixing hole.

1. Measure from the end of the cylinder to the centre of the Fixing Hole, to give the first measurement (a)
2. Measure from the centre of the Fixing Hole to the other end of the cylinder, to give the second measurement (b)

If measurement a = 35mm and measurement b = 45mm then the size required is referred to as 35/45 (80mm overall). Some double cylinders (key operated at both ends), like the Yale Anti-Bump and UAP+ Zero Lift Anti-Snap cylinders feature security on both ends. So, ordering a 35/45 cylinder is the same as ordering a 45/35 cylinder.
