DPE (Double Profile Extended) is a 6+1-pin system. When the key is inserted in the key way, checks are carried out in the cylinder plug by
a plug rib profile,
a profile locking bar (which is controlled by a curve in the body; no springs used)
and an additional control pin.
Benefits
The special longitudinal profile system is specifically adapted for the cross-section profile retainer and therefore results in strong key cross-sections.
Large profile cross-sections of 0.5 mm² in the variable profiles guarantee lasting differentiation between the different profile versions.
The key is precisely centred by the special profile rib design, ensuring the key can be inserted without any difficulty.
Constant overlapping of a least 4 plug ribs in the scanning area provides optimum picking protection
Individual differences in profiles are fully effective - no profile variations in the lower key bitting section.
