Anti Snap Locks

Anti-snap locks, also known as snap-safe locks or cylinder guards, are specially designed to protect against a common method used by burglars known as lock snapping.

Lock snapping involves applying force to a lock cylinder, causing it to snap and allowing the intruder to manipulate the lock and gain entry to the property easily. Over the years, we’ve seen these types of locks snapped by criminals many times. In our view, as the first line of defence for your home and property, standard euro cylinder locks simply aren’t up to the job.

With anti-snap locks, you can significantly reduce the risk of lock snapping and enhance the security of your doors. If you’re looking for better protection and peace of mind, anti-snap locks are the way to go.

What are anti-snap locks?

Anti-snap locks can enhance the security of your doors by preventing cylinder snapping, a common method that allows burglars to enter your home within seconds.

With some types of locks, cylinder snapping is too easy. It doesn’t require any specialist skills or tools, which can make your home easy pickings for would-be criminals.

Anti-snap locks are a more secure type of euro cylinder, featuring a more robust, high-security cylinder. It remains in place even if the front part of the lock is broken, to prevent any tampering with the locking mechanism.

Why choose anti-snap locks?

Anti-snap locks are designed to withstand lock snapping attacks. They feature a sacrificial break point, which means that even if the outer part of the lock cylinder is snapped, the inner mechanism remains intact, preventing entry.

By installing anti-snap locks, you're sending a clear message to potential intruders that your property is well-protected. This acts as a deterrent, as burglars are less likely to target a property with advanced security measures in place.

Investing in anti-snap locks is a cost effective way to improve the security of your property. Rather than replacing the entire door or lock system, you can upgrade your existing locks with anti-snap cylinders, saving you money in the long run.

Anti-snap locks can be easily installed by our professional locksmiths. We have the expertise and experience to fit these locks to a high standard, ensuring optimal security for your property.
