Euro Lock Replacement FAQs
A euro cylinder (also called euro profile cylinder) is a standardized lock mechanism commonly used in UPVC doors, composite doors, and many wooden doors. It’s a removable cylinder that fits into the door’s multi-point locking system. Euro cylinders are popular because they’re easily replaceable and come in various security levels.
Standard euro cylinders are vulnerable to lock snapping – a quick and silent attack method used by burglars. Anti-snap cylinders have a sacrificial section that breaks away under attack, leaving the locking mechanism intact and secure. This upgrade significantly improves your home security and is often required by insurance companies.
Euro cylinder sizes are measured from the center of the cam (the mechanism that turns) to each end. Common sizes include 30/30, 35/35, 40/30, etc. We provide professional measurement as part of our service to ensure perfect fit. Different door types may require offset cylinders with unequal lengths on each side.
This refers to the TS007 security rating system. 1-star cylinders offer basic security, 2-star provide enhanced protection, and 3-star cylinders offer maximum security with anti-snap, anti-pick, anti-bump, and anti-drill protection. For optimal security, we recommend 3-star TS007 rated cylinders.
