FAQs

Does this lock come with a security card for keys?

Yes, as part of the patented key system, you should keep the provided documentation safe for legitimate key duplication.

Can this be used on an external door?

Yes, it is designed for use on PVCu, timber, and composite external doors.

What does the 45-50mm measurement refer to?

This refers to the offset of the central cam. The cylinder is 45mm from the center of the cam to one side and 50mm from the center to the other.

Is the finish weather-resistant?

Yes, it features 96 hours of corrosion resistance, making it suitable for varying weather conditions.

Is it easy to replace a standard euro cylinder with this?

If your current door uses a standard Euro profile cylinder, this is designed as a direct replacement.

Does the warranty cover mechanical failure?

The product is backed by a 2-year guarantee against manufacturing defects.

Troubleshooting

Key is difficult to turn or feels 'sticky'

Ensure the door is not warped or misaligned. If the alignment is fine, use a small amount of graphite lubricant inside the keyway.

The fixing screw does not align with the hole

Check that the cylinder cam is in the neutral 'deadlocked' position, which allows the cylinder to slide in and out of the door freely.

Key will not enter the lock fully

Ensure the key is the original Yale key provided. Check for any debris trapped in the keyway using a thin, non-metallic probe.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Enhanced security against picking and bumping
  • Certified fire door compatibility (FD30/FD60)
  • Includes 3 original Yale keys
  • Corrosion-resistant silver finish
  • Easy direct-fit installation

Cons

  • Specific 45-50mm size requires precise measurement
  • Only compatible with Yale-authorized key duplication
  • Not intended for non-Euro profile doors

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, remove the existing cylinder by unscrewing the central fixing screw located on the door edge, aligning the new Yale cylinder with the existing mortice, and securing it with the included retaining screw. Before purchasing, verify your current cylinder measurement from the center of the cam to each end of the cylinder to ensure the 45-50mm size is correct. For care, avoid using heavy oils or lubricants inside the keyway, as these can attract dust and debris; if the key begins to feel stiff, a light application of a graphite-based lubricant is recommended to maintain smooth operation.
