Have you experienced something like the photo?
This is a picture of a typical snapped handle and lock where a thief has gained access to a domestic property. Again, typically via the rear of the house and through a uPVC door. Lock snapping arrived in Doncaster in the early 2000s and has remained. The number of illegal immigrants coming into Doncaster and other areas will ultimately cause this style of unlawful entry to no doubt increase. The justice system is under immense pressure but can not cope, and one solution will be for you to take extra precautions for the safety of your home and family.
What can we do?
Fit the Ultion WXM plus anti-snap euro cylinder. This is the flagship three-star lock from Brisant. The euro cylinder (barrel) has been designed to stop “snapping” entirely and also has anti-pick, anti-bump, and anti-drill features. These locks thwart any chance a burglar has of snapping your locks guaranteed. Importantly, they look different to traditional locks and so inform thieves not to bother and go next door. Door manufacturers are not obliged to fit three-star locks, and if they can save a few pounds by fitting cheaper locks- some will. Do not assume if your doors are relatively new, you will be secure.
What is the cost?
You may be surprised how little it costs to upgrade your locks and protect your home. There is no need to change the door handles unless you want new handles. Extra keys are available, but each lock comes with three anyway. There are significant discounts available where more than one lock change is required.
