A client called to report that two of the bin store rooms in one of their blocks repeatedly get broken into. They have digi locks installed and the tenant is forcing it open as they just forget the code, or else homeless people are breaking in for somewhere sheltered to sleep at night time. My client did not want the lock changed to a key lock and wanted to stick with digi locks but asked us to come up with something to stop people breaking through the door.
Our local locksmiths suggested installing some Anti-Jemmy Plates on both doors will help in securing bin store rooms. These would stop people being able to force the lock with a crowbar, stopping them from breaking in and damaging the door frame.
Whilst our engineer was on site, he noticed that with a few minor adjustments to the way the lock was fitted, he could reduce damage to the door and frame even more as both locks had been originally fitted the wrong way round!
So far, so good, no more break-ins and it seems the tenants are much happier with using the digi locks now they are opening the right way.
