What is lock snapping?
Lock
snapping involves snapping the lock cylinder in two, by applying force,
and removing the outside part to expose the lock mechanism.
Doing so provides access to the mechanism, allowing the door to be unlocked without a key!
Thieves
use tools like hammers and screwdrivers to snap the locks and,
worryingly, it can take just seconds to gain access. This technique does
not require experience or skill, merely brute force.
The locks
most at risk of this type of attack are fitted with a euro profile
cylinder. Euro profile locks are found in the majority of PVCu and
composite doors installed in the last 15 years and operate in
combination with a multipoint lock.
How can you prevent lock snapping?
Firstly,
identify your lock, Do you have a Euro profile cylinder lock in your
door which is more than a year or two old? If so, you could be at risk.
Secondly, replace your cylinder with one that meets current standards.
The 3 star cylinder solution
The
Yale AS Platinum Series Euro Profile cylinder has been independently
tested by the British Standards Institution (BSI) and awarded the
British Kitemarked TS007:2014 3 star accreditation. It’s also approved
by Secured by Design, an official UK Police initiative which supports
the principles of ‘designing out crime’.
The Platinum Series Cylinder has been developed with a number of additional security features to prevent a lock snapping attack.
To
combat this threat simply upgrade your cylinder to one that is
specifically designed to prevent this method of attack, ideally one that
meets the TS007 3 Star standard - such as a Yale Euro Cylinder Lock.
Features include:
- 3 Star Kite marked – the highest security for a euro cylinder lock
- Superior strength with cylinder stability system for superior protection
- Horizontal key way
- Flat reversible dimple key with new stylish nylon key bow
- Key card for easy code identification and key duplication
- Available in Euro Thumbturn
- Available in Brass and Chrome finish
- TS007:2014
TS007
is a standard developed in response to concerns over cylinder attacks.
The standard is characterised by a 3 star rating system, and can be
achieved by combining a 1 star cylinder with a 2 star security door
furniture or using a stand alone 3 star cylinder. The Platinum series
cylinder is approved to TS007 3 stars and does not require any
additional security furniture"
Want to easily fit a cylinder lock yourself?
Changing your cylinder can be an inexpensive, quick and easy DIY job.
How to fit a Yale Cylinder lock in five simple steps:
Step 1 - Remove your door handle
Firstly,
you will need to remove your door handle. To do this, open your door
and unscrew the fixing screws, then pull each side of the handle away
from the door and put in a safe place.
Step 2 - Remove the cylinder fixing screw.
Next,
remove the cylinder fixing screw, which is level with the bottom of
your existing cylinder, then insert the key in the cylinder and turn to
remove. If you find it difficult, twist the key slightly to align the
cam with the door – this will ensure the cylinder slides out with ease.
Step
3 - Measure the size of your existing cylinder. You’ll need to measure
the size of your existing cylinder by measuring the length of each half,
to the centre of the cam. This will give you two measurements, for
example – 60mm and 40mm. It is important to know which measurement is
for the external side and which one is for the internal side – as the
external side has the protection against attack.
Step 4 - Align
the cam with the centre of the cylinder. Once you have your new
cylinder, insert the key and align the cam with the centre of the
cylinder then place into the lock. Again, you may need to twist the key
slightly to ensure the cylinder slots into the lock. It’s important to
remember that the AS Series and AS Platinum Series cylinders do have an
external side.
Step 5 - Secure your new kitemarked cylinder in
place. Next, replace the cylinder screw and screw tightly to secure your
new kitemarked cylinder in place. Check the cylinder is fitted
correctly by lifting the handle and turning the key. Lastly, replace
each side of the handle and fix back into place, then test the operation
of the handle together with the lock to check it works correctly.
