Introducing the APECS AP Euro Cylinder

The APECS AP is a BSI 3 Star Kitemark, Sold Secure Diamond Standard Euro Cylinder which offers maximum protection. It safeguards from all forced methods of attack ranging from snapping, drilling, plug-extraction, picking and bumping.

The APECS AP cylinder is specifically designed to protect from unauthorised access by burglars. The AP cylinder is engineered with a unique sacrificial point, which when tampered with externally sets our Patented interlocking cam mechanism into action, preventing any further damage to the internal parts of the cylinder, whilst still keeping the lock operable from the inside.

In the event of snapping, the home owner can still operate the door and exit the property due to the lock’s unique mechanism which is engaged when the cylinders external section is snapped off. This mechanism slides the clutch into place, preventing further external damage and manipulation of the cam, whilst keeping the lock operable from the inside.

The AP Cylinder is also protected by APECS Key Secure – an advanced key protection system. APECS Key Secure adds an extra layer of security to your lock. When you sign up for APECS Key Secure, you will create your own Security Code (Password), which is linked to your Key Number, and then new copies of your keys can only be made when that Security Code is provided.

Halls of Cambridge can make new keys from your code in our Mill Road shop. We are open Monday to Friday 8.30 to 5.00 and Saturday 9.00 – 2.00.
