When doing lock changes and lockbox installations the keyset is removed and discarded. I use a cordless drill and a good bit. Takes about 2 minutes and I'm in.

"In summary, home inspectors should warn their clients about making sure their door locks are sufficiently secure to prevent unauthorized entry by someone using a bump key."

Interesting. But when did home inspectors become responsible advising clients about home security?
