Question 5

What are anti-snap locks and do I need them?

Accepted Answer

Anti-snap locks (also called snap-proof cylinders) are designed to resist lock snapping — the most common method burglars use to break into uPVC doors. If your home was built before 2015, your door locks are likely vulnerable. Locks & Leaks can upgrade your cylinders to anti-snap, anti-pick, anti-drill versions that meet British Standard BS TS007.
