Advice Needed Regarding Door Locks

ABS 3* cylinders are £34ish and Ultion are a little more expensive if you can find them without having to go to a lock smith. Keyed alike adds a few quid per lock.

Not that much more than a good BS 5 level lock.

I think high security locks will be more safer than standard door locks even though they costs the most
 
How the hell do you lock yourself out of a uPVC door?

...just pushing down the handle on the outside does nothing, so if it slams shut you are locked out. To get in you only turn the key, you don't need to touch the handle.

That's not a proper lock out, that's the equivalent of a yale lock which can be gotten around with a slither off a pop bottle, when my mica cards were locked in the van a pop bottle is all I had and it works, so JohnD a yale lock is no safer than a mpl with euro cylinder
