What Is Snapping?

As the title would suggest this is where the cylinder is literally snapped into two by applying torque i.e. force to the cylinder. There are a number of ways and also tools to enable this to be done, however it would we be irresponsible for us as a manufacturer to tell you exactly how this is done. Suffice to say that double euro cylinders in particular, due to their design, are inherently weak at the centre. Thieves have taken advantage of this lock and devised numerous methods of snapping these types of cylinders in a matter of seconds and still be able to operate the lock to open the door.
