When it comes down to it, there's usually a brute-force way through most standard locks, say, bolt cutters, pin raking (or bumping), unscrewing the door hinges if they're on the wrong side. But in populated areas, a loud break-in isn't ideal, especially for squatters who plan on sleeping overnight. So for all intents and purposes, I'd assume the point of the lock is just to make it not worth a basic squatter or thief's time and tempt them to search elsewhere for an easy win.
I'm curious - if you went to a new construction site, do you reckon you could find their key/s within an hour or two without already knowing where they were?
