    Looking to buy 3 key-alike high security euro cylinders (something like the Avocet ABS high security range). Any shops in Dublin with a good selection of these or similar?

    I just placed an order with lockandkey.co.uk and have used then in the past. They don't ship to Ireland but I use parcel motel. It suits me aswell as I don't want a company knowing my key code and house address.

    Good to know. Went with ebay in the end, Iris shops have such poor internet presence.

    I bought the Avocet ABS high security/quantum range, they seem to be getting good reviews.

    I have a set of these. They’re great locks. Except for coins sticking to the keys in your pocket. http://www.barnsleylock.co.uk/ seemed to be the cheapest out there. A good deal cheaper than the Irish suppliers.

    Amazon. €20 for 3. Give or take, depending on the size u need (take it out to measure BOTH sides)

    Safer to go to a supplier with a PSA licence

    Central Key & Hardware 1A North Frederick Street Dublin 1 or Brown Bros in Dun Laoghaire as a previous poster said.

    Crothers Security in Walkinstown also but your will pay top dollar there

    Hope you get sorted
