Here’s a real photo from the job. This Happened in Bramley.

Unfortunately, this method is quick, quiet, and alarmingly common. In this article, we’ll explain how burglars break in, how to secure your home, and what to do if you’ve been a victim of a break-in.

How Do Burglars Break Into Properties?

1. Lock Snapping (Most Common )

Many burglars target Upvc doors with standard Euro lock cylinder, which can be snapped in seconds. Once broken, the thief can remove the lock and open the door with minimal effort.

Solution: Upgrade to anti-snap locks like Ultion Or Apecs Locks.

2. Brute Force Attacks (As Seen in Our Recent Job)

Thieves may force the handle or lock until it breaks (just like in the photo above). This is often done at night when fewer people are around.

Solution: Install high security locks, and reinforced strike plates.

3. Door Prying & Drilling

Some burglars use tools to pry open doors or drill locks. This is less common but still happens, especially on older properties.

Solution: Fit doors with multi-point locking systems and security hinge bolts.

4. Sneak-In Burglaries

Unlocked doors and windows are an easy target. Some burglars simply walk in while homeowners are distracted.

Solution: Always lock your doors and windows, even when home.

Real Story: Why a Customer in Leeds Chose to Upgrade to an Ultion Cylinder:

We had a call the other evening from a young couple living in Horsforth, They’d been away for the weekend and returned to find signs that someone had tried to force their front door. Thankfully, the lock had held up — just. The door frame had a few splinters and the handle was loose, but the lock itself hadn’t given way. Still, it shook them up enough to call me for advice on upgrading their home security.

After inspecting the door, I could see their current Euro lock was one of the standard budget models that come pre-installed on most composite and Upvc doors. These cylinders are often vulnerable to lock snapping, picking, and bumping — all common methods burglars use to gain entry in just seconds.

We recommended replacing it with an Ultion 3-star cylinder, one of the most secure locks currently available in the UK. It’s Sold Secure Diamond-rated, approved by the police under Secured by Design, and far exceeds the minimum requirements for insurance and home safety.

The Ultion lock isn’t just tough — it’s smart. If someone tries to force it, a hidden lockdown mode is triggered, making it virtually impossible to open, even with tools. It also has 11 pins, which creates nearly 300,000 different key combinations — far beyond most cylinders on the market.

 

Ultion Locks Offer Real Protection Against a Real Threat:

Sadly, burglaries are on the rise again across parts of Leeds and West Yorkshire, and many intruders know exactly what type of lock they’re up against before they even approach a door.

Standard Euro lock cylinders can be snapped in less than 10 seconds, especially if they sit too proud from the handle — and unfortunately, many homeowners don’t realise their locks are vulnerable until it’s too late.

After fitting the Ultion cylinder and reinforcing their door handle with a high-security 2-piece anti-snap design, I handed over their unique Ultion key card for security duplication and showed them how the lock functions. They were shocked at how much more solid and precise it felt compared to the original one.

They now sleep better at night — and rightly so. I always say it’s better to invest in top-level security before something happens, not after. A £100 lock upgrade can save you thousands in losses, hassle, and emotional stress. Below is the image from the installation.

Why Choose Ultion Locks?

 

• 3-star TS007 and Sold Secure Diamond standard

 

• Police-approved via Secured by Design

 

• Anti-snap, anti-pick, anti-bump & drill-resistant

 

• Unique lockdown mode if tampered with

 

• Comes with a £5,000 homeowner guarantee

 

If you’re worried about security, recently had a break-in nearby, or just want peace of mind, upgrading to Ultion is one of the best investments you can make. Give Mark a call and I’ll come out, inspect your doors, and offer you the best solution — no pressure, no hard sell.
