Answer
What is a double-coupling lock cylinder and is it useful in Mallorca?
A double-coupling cylinder lets you open the door even if a key is already inserted on the inside. That can be useful in Mallorca homes where caregivers, emergency services or family members may need access without the inside key blocking the lock. It is a practical feature, especially in occupied homes or homes used by several people.
