sorry to hear, locks mean nothing to these okes it hardly slows them down, i had a break in at work awhile back you can see on cctv it took them less than a minute to get through 3 discus locks and gain entry,

If there are visible signs of forced entry (eg broken locks) you should be covered for stuff stolen from the outbuildings. That's what my insurance told me when I had a bike stolen out my garage a few months ago (a gt avalanche) - the garage wasn't locked so they rejected my claim.

The fact that there was forced entry I'd say there's a good chance you're covered.

 

Yeah, when I had the Demo stolen from my garage, I simply sent my broker a photo of the smashed security gate lock (after of course reporting to SAPS and having an inspector come out), they paid out without even asking any questions.

Really sorry 2Nuts about your bike's, I can only imagine how k@k you must be feeling. But maybe you will get something better, at least you lost something that is replaceable... I hope the a-holes fall and crack their skulls and live their entire lives as vegetables.

 

Just called my insurance to update my cover after reading this, lots of bike getting stolen in JHB at the moment.

You guys mentioning thieves cutting locks off incl abus discus locks, what are they using to cut them off, bolt cutters or portable angle grinders?

IF I KNEW HOW I WOULD POST THE CCTV FOOTAGE, YOU CANT SEE BUT WE HAD 3 LOCKS,

my factory has a huge bunch of keys, on my life they got into my shop past the 3 locks and a wooden door quicker than i can get in in the dark WITH THE KEYS, no exaggeration it was that fast , the whole episode from them starting till leaving with 4 computers screens and ups(1big one) was 3min and a few seconds cant remember

Guy turns and looks at me.. for real its the guy i saw in my garden.. he see's me and starts running.. by now hes at the other end of the park to me. Chased him back through up until norwood primary where he dissapeared into the school kids leaving.. i asked if anyone saw where he ran to.. and.. nothing .. no 1 saw shite.... my 5th gear not so fast anymore.

That's how it seems they operate, same guys lurking around, a gang targets a street or block and they hammer it for a few weeks. I had that, nothing for 5yrs and then about 4 robberies/attempted robberies in 3 weeks.

 

So what tools do they use on these locks, a discus lock is not very easy to break off?
