Unparalleled Key Control For
Today’s Industry
Over the past twenty years, high security cylinder
needs have changed from an emphasis on pick
resistance to maximum key control for the cylinder
locks. In the past, many lock manufacturers
addressed only pick and drill resistance for patent
purposes. The ASSA Twin V-10, Twin Exclusive and
Twin Pro carry patents to protect both the key and
cylinder. This additional protection is easy to obtain
with ASSA’s Twin family of cylinders that upgrade
existing cylinders to a new level of security.
Today’s Technology
Once a cylinder is patented, the high security status
of that cylinder is merely conjectural until it passes the
widely accepted tests to qualify the cylinder as listed
under U.L. 437. ASSA believes these tests and listings
are paramount in security of the cylinder, therefore,
all our Twin series high security cylinders are U.L. 437
listed.
The ASSA Twin series high security cylinder was
designed with key control in mind. Each side bar
contains a code and is combinated by its matching
key. Available in multitude for a given key profile, the
side bar codes are milled on the lower portion of the
key and are precut at the ASSA factory.
Each side bar code represents a unique
key section and unlimited key
sections and levels of control. The
result is unparalleled key control
and the ability to meet our
customers’ demands for
highly restricted or proprietary
key sections.
We meet even more
demands with the Twin
Exclusive series upgrade
available in 851,852 and
862 profiles. The Twin
Exclusive series is a direct
upgrade to the existing Twin
6000 series. The new key
profiles will bypass and
integrate with corresponding
51, 52 and 62 cylinder plug
broaching. ASSA is the answer
for cost-effective, technically
advanced security.
