Oval Cylinder Locks

An oval cylinder lock is, as its name suggests, a lock with an oval shaped cylinder. These locks are less common in the UK but are used frequently across the rest of Europe.

The difference between an oval lock and a Scandinavian lock is that Scandinavian locks feature keyholes on the bottom half of the cylinder, whereas oval locks feature keyholes on the top half of the cylinder.

Both oval and Scandinavian cylinders are available as either double or half locks, featuring a keyhole on either one or both sides.
