Cylinder Options and Features

All cylinders perform the same basic task, but the details of their design and construction provide a range of additional features and benefits.

A number of additional features are available as options within the Tigris® ranges of cylinder.

Clutch Function

When inserted the key disengages the thumb turn operation, and has priority over locking and unlocking. Often required in facilities for vulnerable people, it prevents a door being held locked by gripping the thumb turn on the inside.

Classroom Function

A variant of the clutch function. The key operation remains the same, however the thumbturn can only be used to unlock the door.

Construction Cylinder

Allows contractors to install and use the cylinder during the construction phase using a Construction Key. Once a valid system key is used, the internal pinning arrangement alters to negate and prevent any future use of the Construction Keys.

Thumbturns

We offer a range of thumbturns to suit different hardware ranges, aesthetics or for Special Needs requirements.

Finishes

An unrivalled number of finishes are offered through our Colourmatch service. As well as 10 standard finishes we are able to colour match any hardware finish you wish to specify.

Access2 Passes ISO 9001 with flying colours – Because quality isn’t just a checkbox

At Access2, quality has never been an afterthought, it’s embedded in everything we do. That’s why we’re proud to announce that we’ve once again passed our ISO 9001 audit and while it’s not our first time, it never loses significance. ISO 9001 is the globally recognised gold standard for Quality Management Systems (QMS). It’s about more than ticking compliance boxes it’s about building smarter, stronger processes that deliver consistent, reliable results to our customers. For Lesley Rhodes, Head of Policy & Process, ISO 9001 is close to the heart.  “We don’t do it for the certificate on the wall. We do it because it challenges us to always be better and that benefits our customers, our people, and the future of Access2.” Why it matters: The whole management team is involved — this isn’t a solo effort. It’s part of our everyday operations — not a once-a-year scramble. We use the audit process as a chance to pause, reflect, and find improvements. Whether it’s refining our product quality, streamlining customer service, or sharpening our decision-making with data, ISO 9001 gives us the tools to lead, not follow. The Power of Process From mechanical security to access control, our clients rely on us to get it right, every time. And with ISO 9001, we’re not just saying we deliver quality, we’re proving it through a tried, tested and internationally recognised system.   In an industry where details matter, we’re proud to show our commitment to constant improvement, customer satisfaction, and doing things properly.   Here’s to raising the bar and then raising it again next year.
