How does a euro cylinder lock work?

A Euro Cylinder lock is mainly utilized as a locking means to operate a lock case with a euro shaped hole. The Euro Cylinder is situated in the lock case and protected by a fixing screw through the lock case’s face. The key rotates a cam. This will drive the deadbolt in the lock case into a prepared keep in the frame of the door. Therefore, it secures the door in place.
