A shorter lever is a good choice for doors where the latch can be activated by the thumb turn on the inside.

Lever Pad

These handles for patio doors can operate from a single spindle (inline) or independently from both sides using two offset spindles or inline (pad).

The choice of cylinder is crucial. It's dependent on the use that your doors and handles will receive. For instance, exterior doors should be fitted with a higher security cylinder, while internal doors can be secured with the standard cylinder. Certain cylinders are equipped with additional features that can increase security, for instance, anti-drill or anti bump properties.

To ensure that the euro cylinder is the right size for your door, it must be measured correctly. The cylinder should be measured from the screw hole at the center to the ends of the cylinder. This includes the thumb turn in the event that one is present. It is recommended to do this while the lock is in place however, if this is not possible, you can take it off to measure.

A specific tool is used to break the lock's break line and then the front of the cylinder is snapped off. This is a quicker and easier way to gain access than using a multipoint locking system. It also leaves less evidence of the burglary which could make it difficult to prove insurance claims.
