Many flats still have the basic cylinder that came with the door. It can be bumped open or snapped. A security cylinder with a protective escutcheon changes that for a small cost.
What we usually find
Basic cylinder
Flat key, no brand, copies at any hardware shop.
Cylinder sticks out
Easier to grip and snap from outside.
No escutcheon
A security escutcheon covers and protects the cylinder.
Want copy control
Key card: copies only with the card.
