The sprung lever can also be reduced to accommodate more locks. This is particularly useful in doors with smaller door frames where the cylinder is located further back. A shortened lever can also be used for doors with a latch that can be activated with the thumb inside.

Lever Pad

They operate by using a key that unlock a cylinder case which will reveal pins that can be aligned to those inside the lock body, permitting them to turn the cam, thereby opening the door. Euro cylinders are available with up to six pins. Doors that are internal and external require different levels of security.

The selection of a cylinder is vital. It depends on the type of use your doors and handles receive. For instance, doors that are external require a higher security cylinder, while doors inside can be secured with a standard cylinder. Additionally, certain cylinders have extra features that can improve security even more, like anti-drill or anti-bump properties.

To ensure that the euro cylinder is the correct size for your door, it should be measured accurately. The cylinder should be measured from the hole for fixing screws in the middle to the other end of the cylinder including the thumb turn if you have one.
