This makes it a single replacement option for the G-TS series, although it’s important to note that they are not a direct swap due to differences in locking point positions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIdentification and Variants\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can identify C-TS locks by the Maco logo on the faceplate and by examining the shape of the locking gearboxes once removed. They are available in traditional 16mm and 20mm faceplates, with some models featuring a unique \"Top Hat\" faceplate that combines a 16mm faceplate with a 24mm top faceplate for a seamless finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesign Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe C-TS locks are characterized by their rounded shape, particularly noticeable in the main gearbox and hook boxes.
