FAQs

What does the 3-star Kitemark mean?

The 3-star rating indicates that the lock has passed rigorous tests for resistance against physical attacks like snapping, drilling, and picking.

Are the keys standard?

No, the keys are specialized Bio Keys with antibacterial properties and must be cut using the provided key card.

Can I install this on a wooden door?

While designed for Euro cylinder-compatible doors like UPVC, it can be used on any door that utilizes a standard Euro profile cylinder housing.

What should I do if I lose my key card?

The key card is essential for ordering copies; keep it in a secure location as you may not be able to get replacement keys without it.

Is this lock resistant to snapping?

Yes, the Kinetica+ K4 features advanced technology specifically designed to resist the common method of lock snapping.

Troubleshooting

Key is difficult to insert or turn

Ensure the cylinder is properly aligned with the fixing screw and not under tension from the door handle mechanism.

Lock does not lock the door smoothly

Check that the door is correctly aligned with the frame; if the door has dropped, the latch may not align with the strike plate.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior 3-star security rating
  • Hygienic antibacterial key design
  • Resistant to snapping, drilling, and picking
  • Easy, drill-free installation process
  • Includes a security key card for authorized duplication

  • Requires precise measurement for correct fit

Setup, Compatibility & Care

The installation of the Kinetica+ K4 is straightforward and designed to be performed without drilling your door. To install, you simply unscrew the existing fixing bolt on the edge of the door, remove the old cylinder, insert the new UAP Kinetica+ K4, and replace the fixing screw. It is highly compatible with most standard UPVC door profiles. For care, avoid using heavy oils or lubricants in the keyway, as these can attract dust and debris. If the lock feels gritty over time, use a dry graphite lubricant sparingly. Always keep your key card in a safe place, as it is required to order additional copies of your keys.
