Upvc locks have a MAJOR

 security flaw !

Warning: Upvc Euro Profile Cylinder snapping - As seen on BBC 1  'Inside Out' programme on 20th February 2012.   

Using everyday, basic tools you can gain access to Upvc lock cylinders in just 15 seconds requiring no skill and making minimal noise.

It does not matter what make of upvc cylinder you have - It affects all cylinders as it is the design that is the problem. It also does not matter how good your multipoint locking system is (The side of the lock that throws bolts, hooks, rollers etc when you lift the handle) as this part is only locked into place by the cylinder. 

Burglaries from cylinder attack have seen a huge increase in recent months.  Upvc lock snapping is becoming so widespread that some police forces have started putting out leaflets, and this security flaw has already been reported in the national press and programmes shown on TV highlighting this massive problem.

Cylinder snapping or breaking is where the cylinder is literally snapped in two and then removed from the door, there are a number of ways to enable this to be done.  Upvc lock cylinders are inherently weak at the centre, enabling burglars to take advantage of this fact by coming up with numerous methods to snap or break the cylinder in a matter of seconds and then simply use a screwdriver to open the door.

If your door is not fitted with a Break Secure or snap resistant cylinder then the only people your keeping out is honest people!
