Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does this cylinder come with keys?

Yes, it includes three genuine Yale keys.

Is this suitable for fire doors?

Yes, it is fire rated for both FD30 and FD60 door applications.

Can I have more keys cut at a local hardware store?

The cylinder uses a patented key design, meaning you generally need to use authorized Yale key cutting services.

What is the warranty period?

The product is backed by a 2-year manufacturer guarantee.

What does the 50/55 measurement refer to?

It refers to the length of the cylinder from the center of the cam to each end, ensuring it fits your specific door width.

Troubleshooting

Key does not turn smoothly

Ensure the cylinder is not under tension from the door furniture; loosen the handles slightly to see if alignment improves.

Retaining screw will not thread

Check that the cylinder cam is in the neutral 'deadlocked' position, allowing the cylinder to sit flush in the lock case.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High resistance to physical attacks like picking and bumping
  • Suitable for use on fire-rated doors (FD30/FD60)
  • Includes three secure, patented keys
  • Excellent corrosion resistance for longevity
  • Simple installation with included 50mm retaining screw

Cons

  • Requires precise measurement of existing cylinder to ensure compatibility
  • Patented key system may make third-party key duplication more difficult
  • Only available in a single silver finish

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation is straightforward. First, remove the existing cylinder by unscrewing the retaining bolt located on the edge of the door face. Slide out the old cylinder and insert the new Yale unit. Secure it using the provided 50mm retaining screw.

Compatibility

  • Door Types: PVCu, timber, and composite.
  • Measurement: Ensure the 50/55 size aligns with your door's thickness and current handle position.

Care

To maintain smooth performance, avoid using heavy oils or greases inside the keyway, as these attract dust. If the lock feels stiff, use a dry graphite lubricant specifically designed for cylinders.
