FAQs
Can I get extra keys made at a local hardware store?
This cylinder comes with a security card. For high-security variants, you may be restricted to authorized Yale dealers to prevent unauthorized duplication.
What does 40x40mm mean?
This refers to the measurement from the center of the fixing screw to each end of the cylinder (40mm on both the inside and outside).
Is this cylinder 'anti-snap'?
While this model features enhanced drilling and picking protection, please verify the specific branding on your packaging to confirm if it meets current TS007 3-star anti-snap standards.
Does this lock work with all handles?
It is designed to fit standard Euro profile lock cases, which are common in most UK and European uPVC and composite doors.
How many keys are included?
The product comes with 4 reversible keys.
Troubleshooting
Key does not insert smoothly
Ensure the key is fully inserted and aligned. If stiff, apply a small amount of dry graphite lubricant.
Cylinder will not turn
Check that the door is not warped, putting pressure on the latch, and verify the cylinder is not too long or too short for the door thickness.
Retaining screw won't engage
Ensure the cam on the bottom of the cylinder is in the 'neutral' position by gently turning the key until it clears the mechanism.
Pros and Cons
Pros

- High level of security with anti-drill and anti-pick protections
- Includes 4 keys, reducing the immediate need for cutting spares
- Security card system adds a layer of control over key reproduction

Cons
- Requires precise measurement of existing cylinder to ensure compatibility
- Installation requires basic tools and mechanical aptitude
- The 40x40mm size is specific and may not fit all door profiles
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before installation, verify that your existing lock is a Euro profile cylinder and measure the distance from the center of the fixing screw hole to both ends of the cylinder to confirm the 40/40mm size is correct.
- Remove the retaining screw from the edge of the door.
- Insert your key into the old cylinder and turn it slightly to align the cam, then slide the cylinder out.
- Insert the new Yale 1000+ cylinder, ensuring it is centered.
- Replace and tighten the retaining screw.
To maintain optimal performance, avoid using heavy lubricants like WD-40, which can attract dust. If the lock feels stiff, use a small amount of graphite powder to lubricate the pins.
