Lock Snapping

What is lock snapping?
Lock Snapping is a means by which intruders can force entry to your property. This affects cylinder locks, whereby force is applied to the cylinder, literally snapping in two and thus opening the door. Using this method, an intruder can gain access to your home in as little as 15 seconds.

Are you vulnerable?
Euro cylinder style locks used mainly on UPVC doors are increasingly vulnerable to Lock Snapping, which is on the rise. 

How to protect your property from Lock Snapping?
To prevent lock snapping, homeowners can opt for anti-snap locks. Lock Stock Lock Smiths offer a solution to this increasing problem by fitting a Yale anti snap euro cylinder, which is designed with additional security features to withstand this attack method.
