A cylinder that sticks out is often snapped off or pulled out with tools. Security cylinders have a protected breaking point or a reinforced design to prevent this. A security door plate covers the cylinder, so there is hardly anything left to attack.

We issue an invoice listing every item, which you can submit. Please take legal questions to your insurer or an advice service.
