A new campaign, backed by the ICL and several other organisations, aims to get the law changed, so that burglary tools such as bumpkeys, that have no legitimate uses to hobbiests or anyone other than professional locksmiths and the security forces, are restricted to those with a real need.
Bumpkeys are designed to open a specific brand of lock. Sadly, in the UK the standard rim cylinder and euro locks found on an estimated 65% of homes are all the same profile, meaning that, unless you have an upgraded, treated lock (and you won’t unless you have specifically obtained one from a locksmith) you are vulnerable. Even higher security locks, if made more than a few years ago, are generally vulnerable. Call or email us for more information.
