Antibump Locks
It is possible to get looks which are not vulnerable to these special keys, apparently.
Contact the local firm First Choice Windows for information.
Or you can google for other suppliers of locks or an additive which makes the locks arehder to manipulate.
Remember some insurance companies won't pay out if there are no signs of forced entry.

Urgent Warning Burglaries
Dear All,
There have been a number of burglaries in the area, targeting things like jewellery and laptops. These appear to have been through insecure doors. However, it may be that the burglar(s) are using a special key to gain entry.
You can get locks for your laptops.
If you can. please double lock your doors.
Anything suspicious, please phone 999 if it's ongoing. Especially if you see someone fiddling with a key in a lock, and bashing it with a hammer or a screwdriver
