What is drill protection for lock cylinders? Drill protection for profile cylinders explained clearly!

German and European locking cylinders generally feature drill protection. Hardened steel pins are often used for this purpose. Brass pin pairs are far too easy to bypass with conventional (steel) drill bits and would therefore not provide adequate protection against burglary.

Profile cylinders without any drill protection can often be opened by intruders within just a few minutes using drills or similar tools. In many cases, even a standard cordless drill is sufficient.

An important distinction is made between anti-drilling protection and enhanced drilling protection. Cylinders with enhanced drilling protection are of higher quality than those with basic anti-drilling protection, as they contain more than just a single pair of hardened steel pins.
