Nederlands term

sleutelzaging

Nederlands naar Engels Techniek Techniek (algemeen)
context (from my own text):

'Er zit geen gevoelige informatie in het bestand over bijvoorbeeld sleutelzagingen, cilinderopvullingen en dergelijke.'

'Met behulp van profielbeheer is het mogelijk om de sleutelzagingen en cilinderopvullingen op te vragen.'

Are there any locksmithing specialists out there today? As far as mi limited knowledge of the subject goes, I think this is 'key cut profile'.

Lianne van de Ven Jun 11, 2012:
Hi Michael I'd assume that either "key cutting" or "key cut" fits the bill.
Michael Beijer (asker) Jun 11, 2012:
Hi Lianne My client had the following to say about this: according to him 'sleutelzaging' is 'key cutting', as you already mentioned in your answer. He also went on to say that a 'key cutting' and a 'profile' have a different meaning; 'key cutting' (on a normal key) is located at the bottom, whereas a 'key profile' is the grooves located on the side of the key.

That's why I am not so sure about 'key cut profile' as the correct English translation for 'sleutelzaging'.
Lianne van de Ven Jun 11, 2012:
Answer What is the acceptable answer on this, Michael, assuming there is one?

key cut profile

I am thinking there must be some synonym in addition to your own suggestion, but can't find it right now. But here's the use of 'zaging'. We use "key cutting".

key cut profile n. the shape of a key cut,
including the cut angle and the out root shape
http://www.masterlock.com/pdfs/7000-0031_Technical_Manual_7_...

Deze tweede set sleutels mag pas in omloop
gebracht worden bij verlies of diefstal van een
sleutel uit de 1e set. Wanneer een sleutel van
de 2e set in de cilinder wordt gebracht, en volledig
wordt omgedraaid past de cilinder zich
automatisch aan de nieuwe zaging van de 2e set
sleutels aan. Sleutels van de 1e set worden hierdoor
totaal onbruikbaar!

That's right, Michael. When you have a key cut in a store, the profile is "a given" of the keys. You select the right key/profile before you cut the key.
