Explanation
  • Most euro cylinders have a weak spot where the tread for the fixing screw is. You can easily break the lock by fatiguing the metal until it snaps.

  • There are ways to protect against this, with p. ex. hardened insterts that hold the lock together.

  • These protections, in contrast to drill protection, are typically only found in high-end security locks, however.

  • Professionals use a tool called a Cylinder Cracker for this purpose. The adjustable clamp adaptor, which features a profile on the inside, grips the cylinder and easily breaks it, even if there's very little overhead (only approximately 2 mm required for high-quality tools) to grab onto.
