Lock types
Opening a discus lock or container lock on bike or gate
A discus lock has little to pull on. So we often cut more precisely than on a U-lock.
On a bike rack, on a scooter, sometimes on a works gate. Anything that can be cut open is possible. House lock? We refer you on.
Send a photo. Then we know whether we bring a cutting disc or another approach.
Same rate. No special-effect price because the lock is round.
A round lock has little to hold. So we cut shorter and more precisely than on a U-lock.
On a bike, a scooter or a works gate: if it can be cut open, we do it. A house lock, no. We refer that on.
Send a photo, then the wrong disc is not on the van. We are now open if you are standing there now.
