Almost all UK home contents policies cover post-burglary lock changes up to a stated limit (£250–£500 is common), provided you supply a crime reference number and an itemised invoice. LockSafe generates the invoice for you automatically.Should I replace all the locks or just the broken one?
If a key has been stolen, replace every cylinder that key opens. If the burglar broke a single cylinder, that cylinder is the only one that must be replaced — but consider upgrading every external door to anti-snap (TS007 3-star) at the same time.What is an anti-snap cylinder and do I need one?
Anti-snap (TS007 3-star or Sold Secure Diamond) cylinders are designed to break in a controlled way so an attacker can't pull them out with mole grips. Lock snapping is the most common UPVC-door burglary method in the UK, so yes — fit them on every external door.
