How to choose and measure the right cylinder lock.
The important thing to keep in your mind when choosing a cylinder lock is its dimension (length).

1st STEP
- For correct measurement, remove the old cylinder from the door and measure the dimensions  A  ,  B  and  C . 
1. Start by unscrewing the cylinder screw and removing it completely.

2) Then completely remove the cylinder from the door by pushing it slightly.
*If you have security cylinder, you need to turn the key 25-30 ° to "release" and exit (see picture 1)

 
2nd
E.g. Our measurement is 30mm from the inner side  (Β)  and from the outer  (Α)  50mm. 
So our cylinders number is 30-50mm.
If you have measured correctly, then   A  +  B  =   C
