Product Details

Is the Escutcheon Pro Cyl 316 PVD BC suitable for cylinder locks?

Yes. This escutcheon is designed to suit cylinder lock profiles, helping create a neat, finished look on the door while also protecting the area around the cylinder from everyday wear.

What does “316 PVD BC” mean for performance and finish?

The “316” indicates a corrosion resistant grade often chosen for long term durability, while “PVD” refers to a physical vapour deposition coating that provides a hard wearing surface. “BC” typically relates to the specific finish tone used on this model.

Will this escutcheon help protect the door against scuffs and marks?

Designed for contact at the entry point, an escutcheon can help shield the surrounding door area from handling marks, minor impacts, and frequent use, supporting a cleaner appearance over time.

Does PVD coating hold up well compared with lower cost finishes?

In general, PVD coatings are selected for their strong surface hardness and good resistance to everyday abrasion. While no finish is completely damage proof, PVD typically offers excellent longevity for frequently used door hardware.

How do I make sure I choose the correct escutcheon size?

Escutcheons must match your lock and door hardware requirements. Before buying, check the cylinder lock compatibility and measure your current fitting if replacing an existing escutcheon to ensure a proper fit and alignment.

Can this be used as a replacement part for an existing escutcheon?

It can be a straightforward replacement when your current escutcheon matches the same design requirements. To avoid mismatch issues, confirm the cylinder style and the intended mounting configuration before ordering.

Where are these escutcheons commonly used?

This type of escutcheon is widely used on internal and external doors where a smart, durable finish is important, such as residential front doors, office entrances, and high traffic doorways.
