Colourmatch
What is colour match?
The Colourmatch service enables us to match our Tigris® Plus and Premier Cylinders with any desired hardware finish. Our Colourmatch finishes are carefully applied either by, powder coating, electrophoretic lacquering, electroplating and metal polishing or linishing to guarantee an extremely high level finished product making the cylinder more robust, resilient and retardant to key damage. If the desired finish does not fall into the Tigris® standard finish range then we will Colourmatch. All we require is a sample of the finish we are matching to. Lead times on items not in stock will be 4 weeks from stock availability.
How it works
Satin stainless steel used to be the finish of choice for most commercial, public and even residential developments, but things are changing. Modern, high quality residential developments are just as likely to use dark bronze or satin brass to inject a feeling of quality and individuality.
All Tigris® cylinders are available in standard nickel finish. We provide a standard range of special finishes, bronzes, polished chrome and satin brass, available on Premier 3 and Plus. We are also able to provide cylinders in a wide range of metallic and solid colours using our ColourMatch service.
BSI Technical Modifications
Altering the surface finish or color of a 3-star cylinder goes beyond aesthetics—it’s a precision process governed by BSI regulations to ensure reliability and safety. The TS 007-1:2024 standard mandates that refinishing must be carried out by accredited facilities to maintain the cylinder’s performance and security features.
Our Colormatch studio adheres to these strict guidelines, delivering flawless, durable finishes that align with the highest industry standards. Whether you’re customizing for style or functionality, we guarantee results that meet both visual and technical excellence.
