ADDING TO THE RANGE
»»Avocet Hardware has added to
its Break Secure lock range with the
launch of the ATK high security euro
cylinder – the company’s second Sold
Secure Diamond and TS007 British
Kitemark 3-star rated lock.
ATK comes with a standard key, which
allows all leading locksmiths to produce
them quickly and easily, and end-user
registration isn’t required.
ATK utilises Avocet’s patented
locking cam system, which is proven to
effectively secure against common forms
of attack such as snapping, bumping and
drilling. It features ten hardened anti-drill
pins, and an anti-pick and antibump system.
The new range also includes one
of the only Sold Secure and Secured
by Design rated thumbturn locks on
the market. Incorporating Avocet’s
new click secure system it makes
use of a positive click turn action, which
means it can’t be bypassed with the wire
tools that make a great deal of other
thumbturns a major security risk.
ATK is available in sizes ranging from
30 to 60mm, with 5mm increments for
both internal and external parts of the
cylinder.
