hmm kaba gemini?

does anyone know the difference between this and kaba quatro,

i have a half euro kaba quatro clyinder, and a spare like barrell,

interesting locks altho not dared to take the barrell to bits...

gemini has 3 rows of pins, quattro has 4. The angles the rows are set at are different too. Check out the protections-vol site - you should be able to find pictures there.

ive just missed one on ebay,

worth getting or is it pretty much like the quatro?

was gonna put the quatro in my the housing for my uncles lockup/garage, but i decided against it an put a evva cylinder in, it fobbed him off with the excuse it only comes with 2 keys lol

i wanted to keep it for myslef lol

I havent had a quatro through my hands to be honest and i cant remember the stats but they are very simular indeed i think,

The lock sure looks very nice, but seems to work on fairly simple mechanics. Would be awesome to play around with one of these and get a good look of its intestines. Does anyone have a price-range on these babes?

Not realy to be honest,

It was the first dimple lock i got and it just feels a nice solid lock and was impressed at the time,

It took me a little while to pick as i got it when i pretty much started which i guess made me more impressed because i still had the high of thinking i could pick anything after picking a simple yale lock lol,

The genimi uses 3 rows of pins but i seem to remember a few on here suggesting that their locks didnt have full pin stacks in ever hole but mine does,

I got mine from ebay for a few pounds,

I guess its one of those things that somthing impresses you and sticks in your mind, you then use that as a bench mark for anything else that comes along,
Ive got a lot of differant types of locks but the kaba is just one of my favorites cant say exactly why i guess,
