Lock snapping

Lock Snapping: A Real Threat to Over 22 Million UK Doors. A common method of attack, known as lock snapping, can compromise a lock cylinder in less than 60 seconds. (Videos demonstrating this technique are widely available online.)

To combat this, Thanet Locksmiths advises that all uPVC doors fitted with older euro-cylinders be upgraded to 'Break Secure' cylinders. These high-security locks are EN1303 certified, providing robust resistance against drilling, picking, pulling, and snapping, and include three keys.

Important Update: Our Special Community Offer is Now Closed. Previously, in response to concerns about targeted burglaries affecting elderly or vulnerable individuals in Thanet, we ran a special initiative. We offered a snap-resistant lock, supplied and fitted for just £30.00 per lock (covering our cost plus diesel, significantly less than the usual £80.00+ fitted price for uPVC doors). This offer was exclusively for local Thanet residents, excluding landlords and commercial clients. While this particular offer is no longer active, our dedication to securing our community remains our top priority.
