Most of the high security padlocks will have a rating, the CEN rating or the Sold Secure. CEN ratings for padlocks start at 2 for medium security padlocks and finish with the highest rating of 6. CEN ratings are given to padlocks that meet certain requirements and are not tested to these ratings by an independent testing facility. Sold Secure ratings are given by Sold Secure after they have tested each product under vigorous conditions, they force, cut, burn, drill, snap...etc and if the product lasts a certain amount of time or a certain level of force it gains the Bronze, Silver or Gold ratings.

The Union AVA Extra Key is a high-security replacement or additional key specifically engineered for the Union AVA padlock series. Known for its robust 10-disc tumbler mechanism, the AVA system offers superior resistance against common picking and manipulation techniques, making it a preferred choice for high-value asset protection.

These keys are typically used when additional personnel require access to a secured site or when an original key has been misplaced. Because they are cut to specific manufacturer codes, they ensure seamless mechanical operation without the risk of damaging the internal disc components often associated with poorly cut duplicates.

  • Function: Operates the rotating disc mechanism within Union AVA locks.
  • Compatibility: Suitable for all padlocks featuring the standard AVA profile.
  • Application: Used in industrial, commercial, and high-end domestic security setups.

When ordering, ensure the correct key code is provided to match your existing lock suite, facilitating easy integration into your current security management system.
