Default Eurolocks - when you have no keys ?

we'd have access to both sides of the door(s), so if there was
something you could do from the internal side such as removing the
plate around the handle / lock, it shouldn't be an issue.


Google for "bump key". I've never needed to try one but it might work.

Depends the quality of the eurolocks. If cheap, you should be able to get
in in a few seconds. Common knowledge how to break into a eurolock door.

We were burgled in 2007, they came in through the rear french doors
(eurolock). I have replaced the locks with Mul-T-lock snapsafe ones and
sash jammers. Should make it a little more difficult.
