Avocet ABS High Security Euro Cylinder - Anti Snap Lock - TS007 3 Star (35(INT) x35(EXT), Chrome)

If you've never changed a Euro Cylinder lock it's usually a very simple job, literally a couple of minutes with a screwdriver and you are done. I say 'usually' as in my instance there was an additional hidden grub screw holding the existing one in place, which only became apparent once i disassembled the whole lock assembly (something I hadn't seen covered in the various YouTube tutorials - I think this may be unique to the Winqhaus multipoint locking system on the door. It meant even with the locking screw removed the lock was stuck fast, which was a bit of a pain until I sussed out what was going on and found the grub screw and was able to remove it with an allen key. Despite that setback it was still a simple enough job to change it, and anyone that's even vaguely competent with a screwdriver will have no issues. As for the lock itself, it's anti-snap anti-bump etc. The cold hard fact of the matter is no lock is every going to be totally secure, and there are tools to defeat this lock available, but it offers more protection than most for the price point. At the end of the day it's about making your property more hassle that others to get in, and slowing down entry to people even with the right tools to defeat the lock. Burglars are for the most part opportunists who are looking for an easy target. If they come across this they you've got a fighting chance of them moving on to another property which presents less of a challenge (an old style snappable lock can be opened in seconds) The lock comes with 3 keys (as they are not as long as those on the Yale Platinum locks at a similar price point, which is a plus for me) and a key card to get more. If you are looking to change your lock for one with anti-snap features (and you really should as that's the method of entry in a quarter of all burglaries according to statistics) then this is a great lock for the price.

I can not say how impressed I am with this product. Our front door had a Magnum lock and my key was sticking and getting very difficult to use. I researched a new lock and I was horrified to find how easy it is to "snap" locks. I purchased a smart lock but found that it could easily be forced off the door. Amazon refunded the (large) sum without a problem. I then replaced the cylinder with a Yale Platinum which was installed in a few minutes and is secure. I purchased this lock for the back door. It is also secure but feels better quality. The keys slip in easily and the lock turns with no problem. Highly recommended.

Excellent lock and the highest rated euro lock on the market, with diamond standard. Fitting was easy and comes with two different length screws for securing in place and 3 keys. Expensive but feels high quality. If you buy this lock there is no need to pay extra for high security handles, so you can save a bit there and have a wider choice of handle if required.

Quick delivery. I did lots of research before spending £75 on 2 locks, and theses locks have everything from anti snap to pick. The keys feel strong and so do the locks with the key sliding in with ease. Even though there very good locks I will be buying the anti snap uPVC door Handel's for extra security.

Easy to install and supposedly secure. After a good bit of research I became convinced that no lock can stop a motivated burglar, but this should stop the occasional ones.

Decided to upgrade my lock barrel to a high security one and this seemed to meet my needs. Ordered it (make sure to check the length of the old barrel beforehand) and it was quickly delivered. Fitting was simple - just one screw and that's it. The barrel works great, with no problems. Would use these again.

Ordered new lock plus 3 extra keys (6 total) on a Friday. All delivered the following Weds and all 6 keys work perfectly as does the lock. Would recommend and use again. Thanks!

A string of burglaries in our new estate prompted us to replace the original cheap cyclinder locks with these antisnap type. I did some research which suggested these are the top 2 available, after purchasing i tried to get spare keys from timpsons and the man told me these locks are the best even showing me he used them on his own shop. Spare keys are expensive though!! timpsons wanted £40/key but I bought spares from Amazon at about £7 each.

Génial super rapport qualité prix.

Sicuramente interessante il brevetto che impedisce l'accesso dall'esterno in caso di tentativo di rottura della parte centrale del cilindro (come spesso avviene). L'ho montato facilmente-
