Kinetica Thumb Turn Keyed Alike Cylinders (Same Key)

The cylinder has a unique and patented anti-bump system which does not use trap pins. This system makes the turning of the cylinder key extra smooth.

Anti-drill pins are in each side of the cylinder.

Anti-pick pins are in each side of the cylinder making it extremely difficult for a common burglar to pick the cylinder.

Lock snapping is one of the most common burglary methods, so to help stop this the Kinetica 3* Kitemark euro cylinders have a sacrificial cut anti snap line on them. If force is applied to the end of the cylinder in an attempt to break the cylinder to gain access, on standard cylinders, the weakest part of the cylinder is the screw hole which is in the centre of the cylinder (as there is less metal here). When force is applied, the cylinder will break away at this screw hole, making it very easy to manipulate the cylinder into opening. The cylinder will break away to the sacrificial cut anti snap line only, leaving the locking mechanism intact. If the cylinder is broken at this sacrificial cut anti snap line, the last 2 pins in the chamber remain in the cylinder, meaning that the cylinder can still be locks and unlocked with the key. If someone tries to snap the cylinder again, the cylinder is also protected by a bar which is located under the screw hole, making it extremely difficult to snap the cylinder at the screw hole.
