Avocet ABS 3 Star - Euro Thumbturn Cylinder 50 - 50 (100mm Polished Chrome)

I needed an additional lock matching the existing locks I had, safe.co.uk offered real value for money, and swift delivery. I am very happy with the service, 5 star.

Bought as part of a keyed alike set. All are good quality and work smoothly. Provided you measure exact size needed they are easy fit and are flush with handle. Thumb turn works well

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.

Great product, easy to fit.

Moved into a new house and the front and rear PVC doors had different mechanisms and keys for each. I wanted to only have 1 key for both doors so opted for a keyed alike set. Wnet for the Avocet ABS 3 Star as it's very secure and was offered in the odd sizes required to fit my doors.

Superb

Just moved into a new home with some keys missing and only a single key for some of the locks, so I decided to upgrade all around. I went with safe.co.uk so I could have a single key for 6 different locks and went with thumb-turn cylinders for fire safety.

Having a single key means that losing it can be expensive, especially if you think you might need to change the locks (you have to replace every lock rather than just one), but otherwise it's now considered fine from a security perspective. Equally thumb-turn locks aren't considered to be the most secure, but the fire safety benefit makes the overall benefit worth it. I went with the 3-star rated lock to counterbalance these concerns somewhat.

It wasn't the cheapest route to go down, but we're loving only requiring a single key, and not needing a key to lock up at night. No regrets.

Have used the Avocet 3- star for many years.

Top quality product
