Is this lock bump proof?

YES, I disagree with the other answers. I own this lock and I am a "noncriminal" bump key user. I have tried my bump key on this lock. Because the outside cylinder turns free until you push the CORRECT key in to turn just the internal part this lock is either impossible or very difficult to bump. To use a bump key you place the bump key one click from completely in the lock and hold tension against the key in the direction it turns. Then you use another tool to BUMP the key in and when done correctly it turns the lock. With this lock the cylinder spins free with a bump key, or any wrong key, inserted. It isn't possible with only two hands to hold side tension on the key. I am not sure but it MAY be possible using a third hand to hold the outside spinner static to get a bump. Another difficulty with this would be not being clear which direction the key needs to turn. Most deadbolts the key turns away from the door, which does not appear to be a constant truth with this lock. So even if you had three hands and could bump it you aren't going to be certain which way to apply the side pressure. That does not mean this lock could never be defeated and maybe even be bumped but I would consider this lock bump proof.

I seems that any lick with a standard cut key is susceptible to bumping. However, Schlage locks are more bump resistant than other "kwik" brands. I replaced a kwik digital lock with this for sheer quality & durability.

Out of the box, no. But you can bring it to a locksmith to have it bump proofed. However this disables the use of your key and if the battery dies, you won't be able to get into your house if this is the only entry. It also may void the warranty if it's done.

Yes, the lock is easy to release and it's easy to keep it disabled. The problem is that the device breaks and I've replaced it a couple of times. I finally gave up on it.

Mine is suppose to lock but does not. Do not buy if you are looking for security.

I believe this person is refering to a bump key. In which a person makes a bump key which can open any deadbolt. I would think not because whoever makes a bump key needs to bump it with an hammer which will probably set off an alarm. Anyone else has an idea?

No. The only purpose for the lock is to keep the door from being opened (either accidentally or anti-theft).

I think any lock can be opened By someone who knows what their doing. I Would not get a lock with out a key because the electronics may fail; or run out of power leaving you locked out. If your concerned about bumping; you could always disable the key slot with superglue or something

I'm not sure if it's bump proof or resistant. It does say it provides grade 1 security where most other ones provide grade 2.

Yes it locks very secure. I use it in my fifth wheel. This is a heavy duty unit.

Well I have not been robbed since installing it! When both bolts are secured it prevents any vertical movement or lifting of the doors out of their tracks. I bought to keep my toddler twins from opening the door so far its worked and that is proof enough for me!!!

Although this version was used on an inside door at my company, I have the same lock in the slim profile version installed on two outside doors. It is exposed to all weather conditions the Pacific Northwest can offer. Alarm Lock will stand up to the outside better than most.

The lock is easy and quick to install. I can't forsee any issues removing it when you are ready to move.

A little rattle but, you can eliminate it with 2 thin stick-on bumpers. Don't think this safe could be pried open it has a very good lock.

Given that its metallic finish on the plastic I would guess yes, I have not noticed any difference in my application. The other odd thing about the locks with the built-in module is the cases are taller for some reason.

It's that indentation directly above the handle on the front. Basically just a hole in the plastic of the lid and bottom where a small lock can go. If you are looking for serious security, this is not it.

Yes it is. Grade 1 is bump proof. Everything below is not. Btw, I'm about to test mine in the next hour or two in cold temps. It's -14 here today.

It does slide very slightly but has not interfered with my use of the product. No trouble with the lock so far.

Sorry, I bought this as a gift and didn't check out the details. Don't know if it has a spot for a lock on it.
