Very informative video. That helps clear up this issue about whether a lock is anti snap or not. It has been assumed for a long time that when a cylinder has those lines on it then they are anti snap as those lines denote where the lock will snap in the event of a snap attack. It can be a bit confusing when they say anti snap but make the lock so that it will snap. A bit like here in Australia where the blank Lw5 is for 6 pin locks and the Lw4 is for 5 pin locks. I think lock companies just like to confuse us. Thanks for this video, it is really helpful, cheers
Thanks for watching, in the UK we only started seeing these when double glazed doors started appearing, aluminium then upvc and now composite. On wooden doors we still have mortice locks (commonly known as chubb locks) and nightlatches (commonly known as Yale locks)
Very well presented Derek. So if someone was at Yale as an employee, does that qualify them to be knowledgeable enough to criticise? The answer is no! I'll tell you why, I picked a range of locks on my channel made by Squire, they were easy to pick and a novice picker would get them open fairly quick. On Squires website those range of locks is supposed to be a very difficult pick for Locksmiths. Not my word, the word of the company themselves. I had proven that not to be the case. So if someone works at Yale, Squire or any other lock company, that doesn't necessarily qualify them to be an expert. Nice rebuttle Derek, you are a good and honest man. Good bless you 🙂👍

Thanks for watching Roy and your comments and your right just because someone works or did work for a lock manufacturer does not make them a expert.
