Default Eurolocks?

Just been watching one of those cops with cameras TV shows. Cops
raided a suspected drugs den in a flat in Plymouth, broke the door
down with the big red key.

The search obviously took some time & one of the brief film shots
seemed to show a locksmith removing the old eurolock.

It was a very brief clip, but he seemed to have removed the door
handle & faceplate leaving about an inch of the eurolock exposed.

He adjusted a large adjustable spanner to fit the eurolock body &
applied a few sharp horizontal jerks - and the lock seemed to break
in half.


Just watched a repeat of the show. The handle & faceplate were present, the
eurolock protruded by a small amount & was easily snapped off.
