The fundamentals of safety
Basing one’s safety on a cylinder represents a guaranteed choice: it can be installed also by self-taught people
and features a wide range of combinations of short, handy and not too heavy keys in the pocket. Moreover, it is
encapsulated in a defender barrel that protects it against being drilled or ripped out, with PVD* treatment, and
therefore against any type of attack. The cylinders used by Oikos have horizontal access and are tamper-proof; the
key is specular and works whichever way it is inserted, it is very convenient and it is used to open the door from the
outside; from the inside, the door is opened and closed using the convenient knob.
*PVD Physical Vapor Deposition
The currently most advanced technology in surface covering processes. The handles, accessories and, in this case, the defender are coated
with zirconium nitrides, making them resistant to atmospheric agents (even the most acid) and wear eff ects, such as abrasion and
chafi ng. PVD is however an ecological process, because the physical process does not generate any harmful residues.
Please pay attention to the colors of the key
Sekur is the most recent guarantee formula released by the Oikos school. It is a cylinder with 10 movable recognition pins plus a high
precision fl oating one. The exclusive 3-in-1 patent allows you to change the encryption of the key 3 times without changing the cylinder.
GREEN this is the
key for the building site
stage, which can be
given also to strangers.
For a further safety guarantee, the duplication of the SEKUR key can be performed only at the internal
duplication center of Oikos, considering that the key profi le is an exclusive property of Oikos.
To request a duplication, please fi ll out the appropriate form available for download on the website:
www.oikos.it (customer service section).
GRAY the color of
the owner’s keys, with
exclusive and reserved
profi le, which allow
normal access and
replaces and cancels
the green key (these are
supplied sealed).
RED is the color of the
emergency key that
replaces and cancels the
gray keys, in case of need
(this is supplied sealed).
Cylinders
MK System
Master key system consisting of a single key
(master) that opens all cylinders in the system
and other keys that open only their own cylinder
(hotel, residence).
KC System
Each key not only opens its own door (but not
the other doors of the system) but also one or
more common doors (condominium door).
KA System
All cylinders have the same encryption and
therefore can be opened with a single key.
All Oikos doors are supplied with a building site key to be used for the production checks and by the
technical staff entrusted with the installation, while the owner's keys are always provided sealed
inside a special elegant box.
