What are the advantages of using a lock case and cylinder instead of a lever lock?
A. The greatest advantage of using cylinders over lever locks is the number of key differs available. There are millions of key differs available which allows extensive master key systems as well as a high degree of key security for thousands of locks. A master key system is where a “master key” will open a number of locks which also have their own different keys. The cylinder key system is therefore well suited to commercial property where key security may be an issue.
