Their original sales concept was not in selling locks, but in high security doors (think of a custom steel door with a deadbolt system with latches that stick out of all four sides into a custom frame), all secured with their custom lock design. The issue with stolen keys was not in the US. I'm not too familiar with the new mt5 (I've read a few things about it, but that's all). I was also a cop for 26 years, video systems are great because in most (I said MOST) areas the cops know the bad guys, they could guess who was stealing what, but they need the video to ID them and pick them up. Now if you have valuables and the thieves know it, and they want in, you want to make it as hard as possible to break in, PLUS, you want a security system that sounds an alarm, notifies you or some monitoring desk, and you want it all on video. My personal feeling is that you want it to look as hard as possible to break in hoping they go somewhere else. Security is done as a whole package, not just the lock. Like mentioned above, you can put a $250 lock on a door with a 3/4 inch wood jamb, and guess what, the lock will hold, but a swift kick will split the door jamb. They are much stronger than almost any hasp mount on the market, so the hasp would be your weak link. If you are looking for a padlock and hasp type set up look for the American puck lock, (do a google and click images) they are very difficult to defeat, they have mushroom pins that make the bumping and picking harder than most. I owned a locksmith service for 15 years I found that the Medeco, Schlage Primus, to name a couple are very pick resistant cylinders. Re: what is the best lock? unpickable? uncutable?
