The homepage keeps TESA, CISA, Yale and Mottura: they are the ones most often requested. ISEO and AZBE are added here; they appear in older buildings and on some security cases.
We do not publish a catalogue of twenty names. If your cylinder is not on this list, send a photo of the faceplate: we say whether an equivalent can be measured and fitted.
TESA
T60 · T80 · TK100 · standard euro-profile cylinders
They fit most flat mortise locks and many 1990s and 2000s reinforced doors. Inside and outside length must be measured: a short T60 leaves the barrel exposed.
A common cylinder change. On a TK100 the cam and retaining screw are respected; the case is not forced if the pocket is original.
ASIX · RS3 · euro-profile cylinders and some mortise cases
Often seen on Eixample and Sant Martí portals and flats. Replacement needs the same cam and diameter; an ASIX is not swapped for a generic euro-profile without checking the case.
Cylinder change and, if the case is marked, lock repair or lock replacement.
Standard euro-profile · Y217 / 30-30 to 45-45 equivalents
Inexpensive site and rental-flat cylinders. They fit standard cases. They are not presented as a security cylinder: if you want more control, we change to a TESA or CISA security barrel.
Barrel replacement when a key is lost or the turn is stiff. The lock case is left alone if it still throws.
Multi-point security cases · related plates and bolts
Reinforced doors and some shop leaves that already have a Mottura pocket. A Mottura case is not fitted on a 35 mm thin leaf: there is no edge to anchor.
Replacement or installation of a security lock and the cylinder that case needs. Link to the security page.
They appear in Les Corts and Nou Barris blocks. Replacement by length and cam. An F6 can be swapped for another euro-profile of the same size if the case is standard.
Cylinder change. If the ISEO case will not throw, repair is checked before replacing the whole lock.
Older mortise locks · 1970s and 1980s tenement cases
Very common in Gràcia, Ciutat Vella and Sants. The pocket is often narrower than a current case. Sometimes it is repaired; sometimes the pocket must be adapted.
Repair of the throw or lock replacement when the case is cracked. A modern cylinder is not promised without seeing the faceplate.
Car locks, motorbikes and safes: we do not handle them.
Electronic cylinders, card readers and portal automation: if the fault is electrical, it is not this trade.
Brands with no replacement on the visit: that is said at the threshold and a measured equivalent is proposed, not a catalogue name.
Frequently asked questions
Can you copy a TESA security key?
Copies of a security cylinder are controlled by the set itself. If you have lost the set, the cylinder is changed; a copy is not invented without a card or a master key.
Do you fit Mottura on any door?
No. You need an edge, a frame and a pocket that can be anchored. If the leaf is thin, that is said and another route is proposed.
