Cylinders and padlocks

Electronic cylinders that drop into the hardware you already fit.

CyberLock cylinders are made to the dimensions of the mechanical cylinders they replace. No wiring and no battery in the lock: the key powers it, and both keep the audit trail.

CyberLock is a retrofit system. Each cylinder is built to the dimensions of the mechanical cylinder it replaces, so it fits the existing lock case, cabinet or padlock and the hardware works exactly as it did before. There is no cable to run and no power to find at the opening: the cylinder is energised by the battery in the key.

The cylinder has no keyway, so there is nothing to pick or bump, and it is very difficult to drill. It is designed to resist forced rotation and to stay locked if it is attacked, and its electronics are sealed for use indoors and out. That is why CyberLock is so common on remote sites, roadside cabinets and gates.

Both cylinders and keys record every authorised and denied event, so you can report on access to every lock, whether it is a door, a cabinet or a padlock on a gate. A cylinder can also disable a lost or stolen key on contact, and the record itself is a deterrent to theft and misuse.

With over 380 cylinder designs in the range, the lock you need very likely already exists: doors, cabinets, safes, padlocks and more. Tell us what is fitted today and we will match it, or look it up in the catalogue.

What it does

1

Retrofit, not rebuild

Same dimensions as the mechanical cylinder, same hardware, same operation for the person using it.

2

No wiring, no battery

The CyberKey energises the cylinder on contact, so a remote gate costs no more to secure than an office door.

3

Nothing to pick

No keyway. Resistant to tampering, torque and stun guns, and designed to stay locked under attack.

4

Audit at the lock

Every granted and denied attempt is stored in the cylinder with the key ID, the time and the date.

5

Encrypted and unique

Cylinders carry encrypted access codes that identify your system, and are designed so their ID cannot be duplicated.

6

Software options

Dual key entry or a time delay can be set for openings that need more than one person or a wait.

02.3

Cabinet and cam locks

For street cabinets, server racks, meter boxes and enclosures where wiring was never an option.

Questions

What people ask first.

Something else? Ask us directly.

Can CyberLock cylinders be installed outdoors?

Yes. The electronics are sealed, and the cylinders are designed to work in a wide range of environments, indoors and out.

Can they be picked?

No. A CyberLock cylinder has no keyway, so there is nothing to pick. It resists forced rotation and, if tampered with, is designed to stay locked.

How are the locks programmed?

Usually with a Generation 2 CyberKey, which also carries the lock's audit trail back to the software through a communicator.

Does the hardware work differently once fitted?

No. The cylinder fits the lock hardware just as the mechanical one did, and the hardware operates exactly as before.

If a key is lost, do I have to re-key?

No. Locks can be electronically re-keyed in the field to refuse a lost or stolen key, and keys can be set to expire regularly to limit the exposure in the first place.

Which lock is right for me?

It is very likely already in the range. Check the CyberLock catalogue, or send us photos of what is fitted and we will match it.
