A shorter lever can be used on doors that have a latch which can be operated with the thumb on the inside.

Cylinder locks are typically found on uPVC doors, but they can also be found on other types of doors. Cylinder locks are operated by a key which unlocks the cylinder's casing. This reveals pins that can be aligned to the pins in the lock, and permit them to rotate the camera that rotates, opening the door. Euro Cylinders are available with up to six pins. Doors that are internal and external require different levels of security.

Certain cylinders come with extra features that can improve security, such as anti-drill or anti-bump properties.

The cylinder should be measured from the hole in the center of the fixing screw to the other end of the cylinder including the thumb turn if you have one.
