PRO TIP: Protect Your Cylinders

In high-crime areas, standard mortise cylinders are vulnerable to being twisted off with a wrench. Always install Keedex Hardened Cylinder Guards. These free-spinning rings make it impossible for a tool to grip the cylinder, effectively neutralizing one of the most common forced-entry methods used against commercial doors.

Keedex tools and gate hardware ship from our warehouses across America. Gate security and installation specialists with weldable box expertise.

Keedex FAQ

What is a weldable gate box?

A weldable gate box is a steel or aluminum housing that welds directly onto a gate post or fence frame. It provides a secure mounting surface for mechanical locks, electric strikes, or magnetic locks. Keedex offers boxes sized for virtually every major lock brand, ensuring a clean professional installation on gates and fences.

Why do I need a cylinder guard ring?

Cylinder guard rings are free-spinning hardened steel rings that fit around a mortise cylinder. They prevent attackers from gripping the cylinder with pliers or a pipe wrench to twist it out of the door. This is one of the most common forced-entry methods on commercial storefronts and the guard ring neutralizes it completely.

What is the KWIK KEE tool?

The KWIK KEE is a specialty locksmith tool designed for rapid removal of mortise cylinders from commercial doors. It grips the cylinder face and provides the leverage needed to unscrew it without damaging the surrounding hardware, saving significant time on service calls.
