At DoorCall, we understand that your home is your haven, a place where you and your family should always feel secure. That's why we're here to help everyday homeowners make sure their locks and other simple safety measures keep intruders out.
Your door locks are the first and most important defence against break-ins. Many burglars look for quick, easy targets, and older or cheaper locks can sometimes fail under common break-in techniques like lock snapping or drilling.
What is lock snapping? It's when someone breaks the lock cylinder to unlock the door quickly.
What about drilling or burning? Some burglars try drilling or even applying heat to weaken a lock.
That's why we recommend fitting doors with anti-snap and anti-drill locks. These are designed to resist these forced entry methods. They cost a bit more than basic locks, but they can stop a burglar in their tracks, or send them looking for an easier target.
These locks are designed with a special line inside the cylinder that breaks away if someone tries to snap it. This means the lock stays secure, and the door stays locked.
Anti-drill locks have hardened pins and plates inside that stop a drill bit from breaking the lock open. It's a simple way to stop one of the most common forced entry attempts.
They usually cost a bit more than basic locks, but the extra security is well worth it, especially compared to the cost (and stress) of a break-in.
Most of the time, yes. Anti-snap and anti-drill cylinders can usually be fitted into your existing door hardware without any major changes.
If you're not sure whether your locks are up to scratch, or if they could be vulnerable to snapping or drilling, we're happy to take a look. We can recommend straightforward, cost-effective upgrades to give you better protection and greater peace of mind. No pushy sales pitch, just honest advice from local locksmiths who care about your family's safety.
