ERA DCY3S Quick Start Manual

ERA 3* High Security Euro Cylinder
User Statement
This cylinder offers resistance to the commonly used types of attack. No specific security
hardware is required but installing this three-star cylinder in conjunction with security
hardware complying with TS007 will increase attack resistance still further.
Security hardware can be of several types, including a handle with a reinforced backplate, an
escutcheon or a device which is concealed behind the handle backplate. In all cases, the
purpose is to protect your cylinder from forced attack.
Caution
Please read prior to installation:
• Extreme care should be taken when preparing doors for hardware installation and lock cases/ striking plates must be correctly
square and aligned in the door. Furthermore, any cylinder escutcheons must be correctly fitted before any cylinder is fitted as
any misalignment of either the lock case or escutcheon will make the installation of the cylinder difficult.
• Do not attempt to force any security cylinder (in particular a 3 Star cylinder) under any circumstances as this will damage or
snap the cylinder and prevent it from functioning correctly.
• The ERA 3 Star cylinder is designed and tested to the requirements of TS007: 2014 + A1: 2018 to give resistance against the
most commonly used forms of attack and has a snap feature which will render the cylinder inoperable in the event of the
cylinder snapping. Therefore it is critically important that extreme care is taken when fitting these cylinders as any excessive
force applied during or after installation in the door could result in the snap feature activating.
Pre-installation
ERA 3 Star cylinders are supplied with numerous safety features which should be checked PRIOR to the cylinder being installed.
Installation
To fit a high security cylinder you will require:
Please refer to the following installation instructions and diagrams to aid fitting of
the product. DO NOT apply force to the cylinder body or key bow at any stage
during alignment checking process. When installing a new cylinder it is impor-
tant to select the correct size and style of cylinder for your door. You need to
measure accurately to ensure that the new cylinder is the correct size for the lock
and the external half is long enough to sit flush against the external handle when
fitted, without too much of the cylinder protruding (maximum of 3mm).
IMPORTANT: the security protection is on the external (EXT) side of the cylinder,
so you must ensure that the cylinder is fitted/measured the correct way round, so
the EXT side of the cylinder is visible from the outside of the door. This is denoted
by EXT marked on the cylinder itself.
