Dear all =)

When I look at Kaba's website they write pretty much the same and shows (the same?) pictures for the quattro pluS and experT.

Can anyone explain what the differences are?

Here's a good quick read for you. This book is on my must purchase list. https://books.google.com/books?id=7m41L ... ks&f=false

Thanks. Great book it looks like!

It is well worth the money, has great descriptions and drawings and history There is some small errors in some pics like with Abloy, but only a hardcore lockfan will notice them

There is another flaw in the book as well. It becomes a shopping list. Reading the book the first time, I was thinking "I want one of these! Oh, one of those too". By the time I had finished reading the book, I realized just how dangerous that book was to the bank account.

From what I can make out , there is very little physical difference between the 2. They are even covered by the same patent.
But they seem to be pushing the Quattro S as a High Security lock for larger master key systems , and the experT for small and medium size master key systems.

BTW , i also have that book , and it's great. It's getting a bit old now (from 2007) so the very recent locks aren't covered , but overall I would highly recommend it to anyone who's into locks.

This is terrible news! I've just had this book arrive in the post a couple of days ago (costs £65 new on Amazon but I got a great deal on a new "used" (described new) copy from a seller ). It's in perfect shape which is much more than I can say about my bank balance now... egads
