CONT

La fabrication unique et brevetée du cylindre ABLOY PROTEC à disques rotatifs le rend pratiquement incrochetable. Les clés et les disques utilisent une nouvelle technologie basée sur les tailles coupées suivant deux rayons différents. De plus, les barres bloquent les disques à 90º si la clé et le cylindre n'ont pas des combinaisons identiques.
