Anti-snap technology means the F-136 is Sacrificial Snap Secure certified. It features a snap-off front section designed to break cleanly under attack, leaving the locking mechanism intact.

Anti-pick mechanism uses advanced pin tumbler geometry and false gates to protect against lock picking attempts.

Anti-drill protection uses hardened steel pins and protective plates to resist drill attacks.

Anti-bump technology uses specialised pin design to prevent bypass via lock bumping.

How Do You Install the Union F-136 Cylinder Lock?

To install the Union F-136 black euro cylinder, first open the door and remove the central fixing screw from the door edge.

Second, insert the key into the existing cylinder and turn it 10 to 15 degrees to align the cam. Third, slide the old cylinder out and insert the new Union F-136 cylinder.

Fourth, tighten the fixing screw securely. Finally, test the lock with the keys before closing the door.

What Is the Difference Between the F-136 and Standard Cylinders?

The Union F-136 distinguishes itself from lower-security cylinders through its Sacrificial Snap Secure system.

Unlike standard cylinders that can be snapped open with simple tools, the F-136 is designed to break at a predetermined weak point. This frustrates the attacker and keeps the door locked.

This, combined with its TS007 3-Star kitemark, the highest British Standard for cylinder security, makes it one of the most secure euro cylinders available for residential use.
