I looked at several different options of Euro lock but decided this ABS Avocet lock suited my needs the best. It is very well built, easy to use and was straightforward to fit. It provides good security to our entrance door. The service from Safe and speed of delivery was also first class.

Delighted with this lock. The previous one was difficult to insert the key and required key access from both sides. Both these problems were fixed with this lock. It was very straightforward to fit and looks great. Safe.Co.Uk were easy to order from and they delivered quickly. Will definitely use again.

I recently purchased the Avocet ABS 3 Star - Euro Thumbturn Cylinder to replace the lock on my front door. I was overall very pleased with the product, but I did have one issue with one of the bolts.
The short bolt that came with the cylinder installed easily, but when I tried to install the longer bolt, it wouldn't go through. I tried everything I could think of to get it to thread, but it was no use. I eventually had to take the bolt to a lathe operator to have it fixed.
I'm not sure if this was a one-off issue or if it's a common problem with this product. However, I would recommend that Avocet check the threading on the longer bolt before shipping it out.
Suggestion:
Avocet should check the threading on the longer bolt before shipping it out to prevent other customers from having the same issue I did.

Prompt delivery of a quality product at competetive prices. Fitting was straight forward and we completed all 4 locks in under 2 hours and I am a reluctant DIYer. With multiple locks it is worth getting the coloured fobs to distinguish between keys for doors. Locks all move smoothly and we feel more secure with the enhanced security features of these locks. We replaced one key/thumb turn, one dual key and a pair of patio door locks. All are of the same great quality and sit in the door funiture well. All in all a purchase I am very happy with.
