FAQs

Does this cylinder come with enough keys?

Yes, each unit includes 3 Yale-authenticated keys.

Is this cylinder suitable for external doors?

Yes, it is designed for PVCu, timber, and composite external doors and features 96 hours of corrosion resistance.

What does 45-45mm mean?

This refers to the measurement from the center of the retaining screw hole to each end of the cylinder, totaling 90mm in length.

Can I use this on a fire door?

Yes, it is fire-rated for use on both FD30 and FD60 fire doors.

How do I prevent key duplication?

The product uses a patented key design that prevents unauthorized cutting by ensuring only genuine Yale blanks are used.

What is the best way to clean the gold finish?

Use a soft, dry lint-free cloth. Do not use household detergents or abrasive cleaning materials.

Troubleshooting

The key is difficult to insert or turn

Ensure the cylinder is not overtightened in the door, which can cause slight housing distortion. Try loosening the retaining screw slightly and realigning.

Key will not turn after installation

Verify that the door is not warped and that the cylinder is centered correctly in the door's locking mortise.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-security 6-pin mechanism
  • Resistant to picking and bumping
  • Corrosion-resistant finish for longevity
  • Suitable for fire-rated doors
  • Includes three security keys

Cons

  • Requires precise measurement of door thickness
  • Gold finish may not match all modern door hardware
  • Not suitable for doors requiring thumb-turn functionality

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation requires a standard Phillips screwdriver and the provided 50mm retaining screw.

  1. Remove the old cylinder by unscrewing the retaining screw on the door edge and turning the key slightly to slide the unit out.
  2. Insert the new Yale 6 Pin cylinder, ensuring it aligns with the locking cam.
  3. Reinsert and tighten the retaining screw to lock the cylinder in place.

Compatibility covers most standard PVCu, timber, and composite doors requiring a double-sided key entry. For care, avoid using abrasive sponges or acidic polishes that can degrade the gold finish; a simple wipe with a soft, dry cloth is sufficient to keep the surface clean.
