Cylinder lock replacement help

Reg_hurley

I want to replace my front door lock but I'm really struggling to find the correct size cylinder.
The current one is oversized on the outside which makes it much easier to snap and break in.
I need one that measures 15-10-35mm, and ideally I'd like a thumb lock on the inside (the 35mm side) rather than key.
I've checked 4 or 5 shops at this stage and an hour of googling and cant find those dimensions for a euro cylinder anywhere.

Is it a really odd sized door? Anyone know of anywhere that might stock one?

I'm guessing it's a old aluminium door.if so the smallest you will get is probably 30/35 and then make sure to buy anti-snap on the outside,so the 30 side. so no worries about snapping.hope this helps

These have a very good rep

But as per earlier poster, 30mm on outside is the shortest they will do.
I got them a few years ago, and there were no stockists in ireland that carried the sizes I wanted, but they put me in touch with a stockist in Liverpool that posted them to me.

thanks, it's a wooden door. Yeah I've seen the 30/35. Will go for that.
