It's a damn good job that crooks don't have any foresight; otherwise they would
break a load of doors so they could have a choice of ajar targets to come back to.

That rather depends on whether it is possible for the householder to open
the door after the lock has been broken.

You mean that rather than try to get the door open the householder will
merely resort to using an alternative door?

Count on it; there will be a number who will bodge the security
following the need to upgrade it.
