Avocet ABS 3 Star - Euro Double Cylinder 55 - 40 (95mm Polished Chrome)

Good fit, looks solid. I had to use my own existing shorter screws, otherwise it wouldn't lock, but I think that was because of my mortice locks.

It was easy to order a keyed alike set of 2 locks with different lengths, which I couldn't do on Avocet's website.

I found the website easy to use and one to offer key alike at an affordable price.

The advice on the website is great to select the best lock for me.

The dispatch was quick and the items packed well with all extras and advice note.

Found fitting a breeze and have no issues regarding quality.

Would purchase again.

In my opinion you get what you pay for these locks are simply quality!

The locks arrived in great time with easy to follow instructions. They are nice and easy to change and look brilliant. The keyed alike feature is excellent too.

Highly recommend these locks to anyone who is looking to replace/ upgrade.

Ok, so this is a cylinder for changing the locks, as it were. I didn't know much about them until recently but now I realise how useful this is. My house has four doors and they are all eurocylinder sorts, which are very common on modern doors. Realising this, I now have all the doors using the same key which is really better because I can use a single key and use any door rather than having several.

The next thing I learned was that the difference is the length of the cylinder, measured from the centre to the ends as it has a fixing screw.

Changing them is trivial. Do it once and you'll know how from then on - easier than changing a plug fuse.

Security? Well, that's hard to say, really. Nobody has broken in so far and it seems I can't get local locksmiths to cut me a new key, which bodes well. There are features that you want, e.g. a breaking end so if someone twists the lock with a big lever it just breaks off rather than unlocking the door. A bunch of other things, e.g. anti pick, etc. Some of these have to be supported by the door, e.g. the pins and whatnot.

Not hugely cheap but not pricey either. I am well pleased, so far anyway.

Happy with the purchase, easy install as expected, smooth operations, having matching keys has made life much easier.

The locks are very good quality, arrived as needed and fitted easily.

Bought to replace all house locks for Keyed Alike and have done the trick perfectly.

Safe are a pleasure to deal with, each time it was needed to contact them they were informative, and professional.

I would highly recommend Safe and Avocet again.

it's pretty easy to fit the lock cylinder into the lock case and door. there are 11 pin for the key. The quality of the cylinder seems very good.

After I bought the euro double cylinder, it took several times for the payments to gone though. May be it's because of my card type and safe.co.uk has a higher security level, the validation of my payments always failed. but their customer service is very kind. they took the payment through the phone. then the cylinder was delivered to me the next week. It only took me 10 mins to fit the cylinder into my lock.

Great lock but big advantage is you can get different sizes to match back, side and front doors to use the same key. Even got my elderly mums doors to use the same so no only need the one key.

I chose this product after reading reviews on Safe.co.uk - easy to install and great customer service.

It was very solid in design and was very easy to fit,it honestly took a couple of minutes and I now feel safe in and away from home in the knowledge that my new locks will help prevent my home being burgled. I highly recommend this lock.It is great value for money and is a very small price to pay for 5 star security . I have now changed all of my locks at home and I know that they can not be snapped fron the outside of my house so hopefully any intruders who come calling would see I have top quality locks fitted.
