recommended eurocylinder?

Postby aem » 23 Aug 2025 10:23

Is there a list of recommended eurocylinders? I've got a relative in Belgium and the house has 5 exterior eurocylinders (2 entry, 2 gate, 1 shed--don't know sizes), and then probably 6-8 interior doors with eurocylinders (office, guest, storage. etc). I think they are all whatever was already installed when the place was bought.

I'm going to go over there in a month or so and see what can be done to improve the security, and based on what I've found recommended online I was going to see if the following are available locally (I know some/most probably require a local locksmith and have no idea of budget yet):

ERA Fortress (LPL recommended)
EVVA MCS, Abloy Protec, Mul-T-Lock MT5 (I think these were all recommended in a Deviant Ollam presentation)
Fichet F3D
Miwa/Ankerslot 3800

Are there any others which should be considered? Having a masterkey and 2 different sub-master key would be ideal.
