Full details
The SEPOX 90MM Euro Cylinder Lock is designed for homeowners and renters seeking enhanced security for wooden, composite, UPVC, and aluminum doors. Its primary benefit is high-security protection through anti-drill, anti-pick, and anti-bump features, offering peace of mind. A potential caveat is the 45mm(INT) x 45mm(EXT) configuration, which must match your existing door setup for proper fit. This cylinder lock features a robust copper core to prevent jamming and a nickel-plated stainless steel exterior for durability, along with a reinforced black stainless steel rod to guard against breakage.

FAQs
What does '45(INT) x 45(EXT)' mean?
This refers to the measurement of the cylinder from the center screw hole to each end. In this case, it's 45mm on the inside of the door and 45mm on the outside, making a total of 90mm.
How many keys are included?

Can this lock be used on any type of door?
Yes, it is suitable for a wide range of doors including wooden, composite, UPVC, and aluminum doors, provided they use a Euro profile cylinder lock.
What does 'Anti-Drill' and 'Anti-Pick' mean?
Anti-Drill means the cylinder has hardened pins or features designed to resist drilling. Anti-Pick means it has features to make it more difficult to open with lock-picking tools.
How do I know if this lock will fit my door?
You need to measure your existing Euro cylinder. Measure the length from the screw hole to the edge of the door on both the inside and outside. This lock is 45mm internal and 45mm external (90mm total).
Is this lock suitable for external doors?
Yes, its robust construction and security features make it suitable for use on external doors.
What is the advantage of the copper core?
The copper core is designed to prevent the lock mechanism from jamming, ensuring smoother operation over time, especially in varying environmental conditions.
Troubleshooting
Key is difficult to insert or turn.
Ensure the cylinder is correctly aligned and the door is not under pressure. Try applying a small amount of graphite lubricant to the keyway. Check for any debris inside the lock.
Lock cylinder cannot be removed or installed.
Confirm that the retaining screw has been fully removed. Ensure the key is turned slightly (about 15-20 degrees) in the direction indicated during removal/installation to disengage the cam.
Lock feels stiff or jams.
This could be due to misalignment or debris. Clean the exterior and try a graphite lubricant. If the issue persists, the cylinder might be damaged or incompatible with the door hardware.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Offers robust security features against common attack methods.
- Built with durable materials for longevity and reliable operation.
- Designed for easy replacement of existing Euro cylinder locks.
- Includes multiple keys for family use and backup.
- Suitable for a variety of door types.
Cons
- The 90mm size (45mm internal, 45mm external) may not fit all doors.
- Specific dimensions need to be verified before purchase.
- Copper core, while preventing jamming, might be susceptible to extreme corrosion in harsh environments over very long periods (though stainless steel exterior mitigates this).
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure your existing door cylinder measures 90mm in total length, with approximately 45mm on the inside and 45mm on the outside. Measure from the center screw hole on the lock mechanism outwards.
- Remove the retaining screw on the edge of the door, typically located below the cylinder on the lock case.
- Insert the key into the old cylinder and turn it slightly. Push the cylinder out from the door.
- Insert the new SEPOX cylinder, aligning the screw hole with the hole in the lock case.
- Reinsert and tighten the retaining screw.
Compatibility: This lock is a standard Euro profile cylinder. It is compatible with most doors that currently use a Euro cylinder lock, including wooden, composite, UPVC, and aluminum doors. Always verify the required cylinder length and configuration (e.g., 45/45) before purchasing.
Care:
- Clean the exterior with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and grime. Avoid using abrasive cleaners.
- Periodically, you can apply a small amount of graphite lubricant (not oil-based) into the keyway to ensure smooth key insertion and operation, especially in environments prone to moisture.
