We first brought to your attention the information regarding lock cylinders in June 2011. We urge you, if you have not already done so, to upgrade your UPVc locks. The standard locks most UPVc doors have fitted can be opened in just 5 seconds by burglars. The development of the anti-snap cylinder has reduced burglary considerably.
What is an anti-snap cylinder lock?
Most people do not know what are anti snap cylinder locks. An anti-snap cylinder is the latest form of defence against cylinder attack. Older types of cylinders are now vulnerable to a new form of attack, no specialist equipment/expert knowledge is required, and intruders can break the handles and subsequently the cylinders allowing the door to be opened without a key.
The new cylinders are anti-drill, snap, pick, bump making it a lot harder for someone to break into your home.
