Default Combination lock for outside door - is this Yale any good?

I think they are only meant to deter the opportunist, nut the determined,
but if its a barn then sureley you would probably not open the door, simply
drive a vehicle in through the side?

I want a simple 'no key' lock for a large garage door (one piece, so

Any external bolt, like the one you linked to, is extremely easy to get
through with an angle grinder.

I got though a Chubb high security mortice lock on an outward opening door
in 3 minutes with the 9" angle grinder. That Yale bolt looks like it would
take only a few seconds.
