PSA – life hacks…key safe…!

Hold on a minute, WTF is an “Upper Cottage Flat”? And is it better or worse than an “Italian Heritage Car”?

Interesting, thanks finbar, I’ll take a close look at our euro lock.

Cheers perchypanther, hadn’t heard the term before and wrongly assumed it had the whiff of estate agent artisanal guff about it. Apologies for any slight on mcj78 and his abode.

Just cancelled my order for the C500. Chap at Keysafe did say they’ve changed the design to circumvent that method, but I’m not wasting £60 to find out.

Well having thought I’d cancelled the order it arrived at work today!

However, on inspection they have fixed the vulnerability in the two Youtube videos, there is no feedback from the buttons on the code.

I had good service from http://www.lockandkey.co.uk and got all our locks replaced with high security keyed-alike ones.

Cheap euro cylinder locks are incredibly easy to break into. They don’t need picking, you just need a battery operated drill.

Break off faceplace, smash upwards hard, lock barrel breaks in half. Remove, enter. Takes seconds.

You need to replace them with an ABS lock.

“Cottage Flat”

Never heard of a quarter villa being referred to as that in my puff.
