If your home has a uPVC or composite door, you probably feel very secure.
But you may be surprised to learn that the entire locking mechanism of your door relies on one thing; the 'euro cylinder', which holds the lock together.
Door companies fit these locks because they are cheap. And criminals are now using techniques called 'lock bumping' and 'lock snapping' on uPVC and composite door locks to break into your home.
'Lock bumping' keys are used legitimately by locksmiths and therefore legally available. But thieves can use them as master keys to open 'euro cylinder' locks quickly and quietly. And most insurance companies won't pay out if there's no sign of a break-in.
To combat these new techniques criminals are using to target homes, the world leading manufacturer in High Security Door Locks have developed the new Avocet ABS High Security Door Lock, recommended by West Yorkshire Police.
