The TwinStar is a DIN EN 1303 rated lock made by DOM. The cylinder is a dimple lock, with a collapsible sidebar element.


Principles of operation

The Twinstar features an axial tumbler element that acts as a sidebar. The sidebar is made from two relatively movable pins on a guiding rod, with a coil spring between the two. The sidebar protudes into a groove in the cylinder housing and prevents rotation of the plug. When the sidebar is compressed through the lifting of an element in the plug, it can move into the recess in the plug and clear the housing groove.
