HARDWARE
The next generation of 3 star cylinder is here…
» » AFTER MONTHS OF DEVELOPMENT,
Schlosser Technik is proud to announce the
TS007 3 Star Euro Cylinder is now available.
With five keys as standard, dual colour finish
and a non-handed design, the cylinder offers
un-paralleled security and incredible sales
potential for both locksmiths and distributors
without the need to invest in excessive
stock.
The cylinder offers next generation security
and has been accredited with the prestigious
British Kitemark TS007 3 Star, Sold Secure
Diamond and Secured By Design Approved
status after undergoing rigorous snapping,
drilling, bumping and picking tests.
As one of the most secure cylinders
available, the Schlosser Technik 3 Star features
a patented trap pin system which has been
intricately designed to ensure the hardened
molybdenum centre is completely locked out
during an attack. A key benefit of the trap pin
system is that in the aftermath of the stopped
intrusion, the fully secured door can still be
opened and closed from the inside using the
key.
To supplement the patented trap pin
system, it has a snap-secure design offering
two sacrificial sections which will break
away when attacked by lock snapping. The
remaining part of the cylinder can still be
accessed via key after any potential attack.
In addition to advanced anti-pick pins and
non-responsive anti-bump pins, the cylinder
enters the market as one of the most secure
anti-drill cylinders. 22 hardened steel pins are
reinforced with strategically placed hardened
steel plates positioned throughout the cylinder
to completely block attempted drilling
attacks.
Commenting on the launch of the
Schlosser Technik 3 Star Cylinder, Marketing
Manager Robert Standley said: “When
developing the cylinder it was crucial
for us to go above and beyond customer
expectations, and aim for a market leading
product with no compromises. We are now
actively looking for potential distributors
and locksmith partners for the new 3 star so
please get in touch, if you’d like to find out
more.”
In the design stage, one main concern was
the need to reduce the amount of stock that
locksmiths have to carry in vans or shops. To
resolve this, the Schlosser Technik cylinder
features a non-handed design as well as a
dual colour finish, meaning stock levels are
potentially quartered.
