Local newspapers reported on a burglar that had broken into properties in neighbouring towns and villages recently. He used the technique called snapping shown above. You may want to consider a survey of your locks to determine if they are in fact protected from this kind of crime. We have seen some cases of anti-snap still being at risk if fitted incorrectly. If they hold a kite mark they me be anti bump, or anti drill or both. But it may not be anti-snap.And the security market is ever changing as they compete against the criminals.Your lock maybe only 5 years old, but 5 years is a long time where security is concerned.
