I have an ASSA-Abloy inside cylinder and I’m trying to remove the black turn/knob. I can’t find any hidden release and pulling with force hasn’t worked. Has anyone removed one of these before? I’m hoping the U200 Lite fits this type.
@tomasgrekstad Hey there! It’s a tricky situation you’ve got. I haven’t come across any specific information on removing the black turn/knob of your ASSA - Abloy inside cylinder. But I can share some general guidelines about the U200 Lite compatibility.
The Aqara Smart Door Lock U200 Lite is compatible with EU Mortise Lock、Part of UK Lift lever lock . Also, it’s compatible with Euro profile and select Scandi cylinders .
Here are some guidelines to help you check if your lock cylinder is compatible and what to do if it’s not:
- Lock Cylinder Operation: If your lock cylinder requires you to hold down the knob while turning it, it may not be compatible with the U200 (and potentially the U200 Lite as well). Such mechanisms can interfere with the operation of the smart lock .
- Knob and Cylinder Compatibility: If the knob at the end of your lock cylinder cannot be disassembled and does not fit the U200 (or U200 Lite) module, the lock cylinder will need to be replaced to ensure a proper fit and functionality .
- Recommended Replacement: When choosing a replacement lock cylinder, opt for one that supports the U200 (or U200 Lite) base and features a tailpiece. This configuration is recommended for seamless integration and optimal performance .
I encourage our community members to chime in if they have any experience with removing the knob on an ASSA - Abloy cylinder or know more about its compatibility with the U200 Lite. If you have any other suggestions or improvement ideas, you can submit manual customer service feedback.
