What do we mean when we talk about security?
Despite what many people may think, tamper-proof locks do not exist.
A bike lock is there to make stealing the bike more complicated, to delay the thief and therefore act as a deterrent.
A good lock has an anti-picking lock mechanism and is made out of materials requiring the use of specific tools, making theft more difficult.
Security rating.
The security rating helps you choose the lock that is most suited to your needs.
For this reason, Decathlon defined a test protocol with an independent laboratory, CNPP, based on real-life theft techniques.
This unique protocol allows each lock to be given a comparable rating from 0 to 10 (10 being a tamper-proof lock).

This lock is certified by the external bodies ART2 and Sold Secure Silver.
