Why Choose ABS Cylinders?

The full spread of common euro sizes, measured fixing-hole centre to each end (for example 35/45), in key both sides, thumb turn and half formats. Match your old cylinder's measurements and the correct type for the door.
Yes — run your front door, back door and garage from one registered ABS key, cut to code by us as an Elite Centre. Order the set together and specify keyed alike.
Yes — the registered code card is how future keys are cut, so keep it safe and never store it with the keys. Lost cards make key ordering slower, though we can advise on options.
