Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure proper function, measure your existing cylinder accurately from the center of the fixing screw hole to each end (e.g., 40/50mm). Ensure the door is clear of debris before sliding the new cylinder into the mortice. Tighten the fixing screw firmly but do not overtighten, as this can impede the lock mechanism. For long-term care, avoid using heavy lubricants like oil, which can attract dust; if the lock becomes stiff, use a light PTFE-based spray once every 12 months. Keep keys in a safe place, as the security features are tied to the integrity of the key and cylinder interaction.
