Anti-Snap Lock Upgrades
Anti-Snap in Rubery, Done Properly
Doctor Locks serves Rubery and the B45 area on the southern edge of Birmingham, from the Great Park retail area up towards the Lickey Hills, and across the regenerated Longbridge estates. Most homes here have uPVC or composite doors, so failed multipoint mechanisms and anti-snap upgrades are the jobs we see most.
Lock snapping is the most common way burglars beat a uPVC or composite door, and it takes seconds with tools sold openly online. An anti-snap upgrade is the single highest-impact security change most homes can make. Doctor Locks fits ABS Master cylinders, which sacrifice a section under attack while a hidden lockdown keeps the door secure, and we size every one so it sits flush with the handle, leaving nothing to grip.
Most of the housing around here is post-war and modern estate stock, which means uPVC and composite doors fitted with multipoint locking mechanisms. Those mechanisms run on a euro cylinder, and the standard cylinders fitted during construction are almost always snap-vulnerable. Lock snapping takes a few seconds: an intruder applies rotational force to the exposed end of the cylinder, the cylinder shears at its weakest point, and the door can be opened without a key. The newer developments around Longbridge are particularly well stocked with this door type, and the brick semis on older parts of the estate are no different if the original cylinder has never been changed. Fitting an ABS Master anti-snap cylinder means replacing the euro cylinder in the existing multipoint lock body, which stays in place. The ABS cylinder is engineered to sacrifice a breakaway section before the cam that operates the lock is ever reached, and it carries a five-thousand-pound manufacturer guarantee against snapping.
