Changing Euro cylinder - no screw(?)

[112358]

Hi there, I've recently moved into a new flat and I'm looking to change the Euro cylinder in the front door. I'm aware that on a PVC/composite door, it would simply be a matter of removing the retaining screw accessible when the front door is open, and sliding the lock out. However, this flat has a wooden front door and there doesn't appear to be an obvious retaining screw for the lock, see below:

Any ideas on what is holding in the cylinder, and how to get it out of the door? It's not going to be a case of removing the entire lock, is it?

undo the two small PZ screws and the ornamental front cover plate will come off.

Doh, didn't realise it would be quite that simple! I thought that was the lock and not just a cover!

Many thanks for clearing this up.

If you have more than one lock on the door then consider changing the other cylinder and having "key alike", ie one key for both locks. It will cost a bit more but saves you needing two keys.

Suggest that your new euro lock is 5mm shorter on the front facing side.
Currently too much is sticking out and could be snapped off by a burglar.
