Construction Cylinders

Construction Cylinders

Construction cylinders are a practical and cost-effective locking solution used during the construction phase of a project. They allow builders, contractors, and tradespeople to secure a building while work is ongoing, without risking the final master key system. Once construction is complete, these cylinders can be easily replaced with the permanent lock cylinders for the finished handover. Buy Construction Cylinders online today from the John Barnes online shop!

What Are Construction Cylinders?

Construction cylinders are temporary lock cylinders installed in doors during the building process. They function like standard lock cylinders but are designed to be swapped out once construction is complete. This ensures that access during construction is secure, while the final security of the building is preserved for the owner or occupants.
