no one can get my kryptonite keys either.
A) It is entirely possible to hold a U lock or padlock steady enough to drill out the cylinder with a cordless drill. I am not saying that this is common, but I have done it many times. (Customer lost keys and needs their lock removed).
B) Not true. There are a finite number of codes. If I had the proper machine (
my lock shop just happens to not have the ability to generate disk tumbler, {or 'tibbe', in england} keys), I could make keys for
your lock.
I am not trying to be combatative, rather, simply give you all some info....
