PATENTED KEYWAY CYLINDERS
SECURITY/HIGH SECURITY CYLINDERS
Yale's security/high-security cylinders contain two independent locking mechanisms.
The first is a traditional 6 or 7-pin tumbler mechanism with spool drivers for increased
picking resistance.
The second is a 5-tumbler rotating disc mechanism with sidebar engagement. The
rotating discs are spring loaded and block the bottom of the keyway. Only a specially cut key will move the
discs and allow entrance of the key. This key has a special side bitting and must align all five discs perfectly
before the cylinder plug will rotate to open the lock.
All Yale ® locksets are available in a wide choice of cylinder and keying options:
