Ultion Locks Chesterfield

TS007 3 Star & Sold Secure Diamond

In 2007 the prolific burglary method of lock snapping was born in the West Yorkshire area.

This method of entry targeted euro lock cylinders as show cased in the video above and quickly spread throughout the country becoming the favoured method of entry for the burglar.

As Ex-Police officers, SheffLOCK know first-hand how difficult it is from a police prospective to apprehend those responsible as the method is quick, quiet and leaves very little if any opportunities for forensics to be obtained.

If a criminal is not seen, heard or leaves any forensic opportunities it makes the task of apprehending the persons responsible extremely difficult hence when a burglar uses this tactic a large amount of lock snapping type burglaries occur in a short period of time.

Following on from this in 2014, Brisant Secure released the TS007 3 star diamond (Sold Secure) accredited Ultion lock euro cylinder.

Lock snapping burglary

Lock snapping burglary is a prolific method of entry that has been used by criminals for over a decade.

It is believed that this method originated in the West Yorkshire area of the UK sometime in 2007 and quickly spread throughout the country.

The method targets inadequate euro locks and UPVC handles on doors such as composite, UPVC, Patio and French doors to name a few.

The unfortunate reality is that these type of inadequate locks and handles are fitted as standard to the majority of doors installed everyday to members of the public who are sadly still unaware of how vulnerable to burglary they are.

Quiet and quick

Year on year statistics and our own personal experience as former Police officers has shown that burglars commit this method of entry at all times of the day, whether persons are in the property or not due to this method of entry being relatively quiet and scarily quick to commit.

On many occasions, if the offence is committed whilst people are asleep in bed, they awake to discover that they have been burgled but unfortunately heard nothing.

As a burglary prevention company we attend lock snapping burglary scenes on a consistent basis as the majority of home owners/ businesses are still unaware or misinformed of the dangers of non accredited euro locks being installed.

Can this method of entry be prevented?

100% this method of entry can be prevented by installing the TS007 3-star diamond accredited ULTION euro lock from SheffLOCK.

This lock has never been snapped and entry gained.

As Burglary Prevention experts we recommend ALL external doors have these type of euro locks combined with LOCK LOCK TS007 2 star sold secure accredited security handles installed for maximum security.
