Locks

RH / Right Hand lock is fixed to the left side of a right hand hung door.
LH / Left Hand lock is fixed to the right side of a left hand hung door.
KA, Keyed alike or Pass locks mean that the locks are supplied with the same key numbers e.g. If you order 10 Keyed Alike locks then all of the locks will have the same key number and the same key.
Differ locks means that the locks are supplied with different key numbers e.g. If you order 10 Differ locks then all of the locks will be supplied with different key number and different keys.
MK / Mastered locks means that there is a Master Key available for the specific locks which will open any lock in its related key range.
N/MK / Non-mastered locks simply means that there is no Master Key available
Removeable Cylinders means that the lock cylinder can be taken out and replaced with another cylinder by the same manufacturer. The lock cylinders are supplied seperately from the lock housings.
Key Retention means that when the lock is in the open position the key cannot be removed
Suited locks are sets of locks with the same key number, where each set has a different key number e.g. You might order three of the same locks with key number 7601TA, two locks with key number 7602TA and five locks with key number 7603TA. Each set of suited locks, if Mastered, could then be opened by one Master Key or just the key relating to the lock e.g. 7601TA. Imagine an office with three rooms, where each room has the sames locks on the furniture, but with a different key number for each room. If you have the Master Key then you can open all of the locks but if you only have key number 7601TA then you can only open the three locks in your room. This is an excellent way of providing added security and access control.
Key Cutting is available for Siso, Lehmann, Huwil and many other furniture lock brands.
