You may well have heard of “cylinder snapping” or “lock snapping“. Lock snapping is a very common method used by burglars to break into a property that has a euro cylinder lock, lock snapping requires ZERO skill by the thief to snap the lock. Euro lock cylinders prone to lock snapping are found on almost all domestic houses that have UPVC doors, although a significant number of composite & aluminium doors use them too, and they’re often used in commercial as well as domestic environments.
What lock is used to stop lock snapping?
The lock on the above door protecting it from snapping is a euro cylinder lock that is tested and approved to SS312 diamond standard, which makes the lock Anti Snap.

There are a number of signs which will show you that your double glazing needs repairing. Firstly, the window will be draughty with air flowing through the frames. There may be chips or cracked glass or condensation may build up between the glass panes, meaning that the window seal is broken. Finally, you may see water leaks through the frame.
Double glazing repairs pertain to door and window frames and their moving parts such as door handles, window handles, window locks, door locks, including multi-point locks and euro-cylinders, also includes friction stays (window hinges) and door sundries such as letterboxes, door knockers and door panels etc.
We can upgrade all your windows without needing to replace your complete window unit. The benefit of a window upgrade is that there is no mess or redecoration needed. For either minor damage to your uPVC window this can be repaired, issues with the window beading then this can be replaced avoiding the need to replace the whole window
