What is a Profile Cylinder Lock?
A profile cylinder is the heart of a lock mechanism that fits into a specially shaped opening (typically an “euro” shape) in the door hardware. It houses the keyway and pins and is responsible for the actual locking and unlocking.
Not All Profile Cylinders Are the Same
Profile cylinders come in several types:
Single Cylinder – Key entry from one side
Double Cylinder – Key entry from both sides
Thumbturn Cylinder – Key entry from the outside, thumbturn on the inside
You can also choose from standard, high-security, and smart profile cylinders, depending on your security needs.
