It's a legal and insurance thing.
Entering, damaging and taking are the levels that are important.
If a lock is broken to enter, life gets a lot "heavier."
And yes, my lock and hasp system is relatively easy to void with a good pry
bar or claw hammer. But that is "heavy" under the law, and for insurance
purposes. So only those in great need of money or pawnable items would break
in. I'd rather they pull the screws out with the pry bar than cut up the
teak hatch boards with a saw.
Besides, suppose you lose the keys. What then?
Do you use a pry bar or claw hammer to pull the hasp off, and strip the
screws out of the wood, or cut through the hasp with a cut-off wheel on a
"Dremel" tool? I guess I'd check the price of a new hasp before deciding.
