Lock information
What we do with MOTTURA products
Lock and cylinder protection
MOTTURA is an Italian manufacturer of security locks based in Sant’Ambrogio di Torino. It makes locks for armoured, timber and steel doors, euro profile cylinders, cylinder guards (Defender), electronic solutions and safes. We only deal with mechanical MOTTURA door locks, cylinders and cylinder guards: no electronics or safes.
Checking the case and its limits
We check the whole combination: the lock case, the cylinder and the cylinder guard if there is one. A guard must match the cylinder and the door, and a fault can be in any of the three parts.
Options before you accept the job
We suggest repairing the lock, replacing the cylinder, fitting a compatible cylinder guard or a combination of these, with the price given before we start. We only mention features that appear in the model’s documentation.

Before asking for advice about MOTTURA
With MOTTURA we usually find the lock, cylinder and cylinder guard working together, so it is worth looking at all three parts. Before getting in touch, check the following.
- Whether there is a part covering the cylinder on the outside or the cylinder is exposed.
- Whether that guard is firm or wobbles when you touch it.
- Roughly how many millimetres the cylinder sticks out from the outside face.
- Whether the door is armoured, timber or metal.
- Whether the difficulty appears when turning the key or when drawing back the bolts.

Identifying your MOTTURA model
Details to identify the product
The MOTTURA marking on the lock case, the cylinder and the cylinder guard if there is one, the type of door and photos from outside and of the door edge. Don’t send close-up photos of your keys.
Compatibility and availability
With those markings we check the exact combination of lock, cylinder and cylinder guard against MOTTURA’s documentation before giving you the price.

What can affect the compatibility of a MOTTURA part
On a door with MOTTURA, each part affects the others. The thickness of the door leaf, the cylinder length on each side, the space left for the cylinder guard and the condition of the lock case decide what can be fitted. A change to one of them may mean the other two need checking.

Information to assess a security upgrade with MOTTURA
- Is the cylinder exposed or does it stick out from the outside face?
- Is the current cylinder guard firmly fixed through the door leaf?
- Does the door close against the frame without play along its full height?
- Do the bolts fully enter the strike plate?
- Is it a main entrance or an internal door with little use?

What to confirm in the MOTTURA quote
Repairing the lock, replacing the cylinder or fitting a cylinder guard have different prices depending on the model and the door. VAT is always added on top, the price depends on when the service takes place and, outside Torrevieja, there is a supplement. We give you the price before we start.
Frequently asked questions
Questions about MOTTURA
How is a cylinder guard assessed alongside a MOTTURA lock?
We check that the guard matches the fitted cylinder, how far the cylinder sticks out, the door thickness and how the guard is fixed, and that the lock can take it. If the combination doesn’t fit, we tell you before fitting it.
Can you work on any MOTTURA model?
No. We repair MOTTURA locks, fit cylinder guards and replace cylinders, always mechanical ones. We don’t deal with electronics or safes, and each model is confirmed by its reference.
Which photos help identify my MOTTURA product?
One of the door from outside showing the cylinder or the guard, another of the door edge with the door open and another of the whole door. Don’t send close-up photos of your keys.
How is the quote for MOTTURA confirmed?
From the photos and markings we give you the price before we start, with VAT on top. If the price changes when we check the combination, we don’t go ahead without your agreement.
Does this page mean you are an official MOTTURA service?
No. This page gives guidance on MOTTURA products, but it does not imply any official link, authorised distribution or certification with the manufacturer.
What if the MOTTURA cylinder guard has come loose?
A loose guard no longer does its job properly and can rub against the cylinder. We check the fixing and the condition of the part to decide whether to adjust or replace it.
Can I fit a cylinder guard without changing the MOTTURA lock?
Often yes, if the cylinder is the right length and the lock is in good condition. This is checked on the door before we suggest it.
