Window locks go for as little as 20p in the markets.
They are often cheaply made & do very little against the attack of a screwdriver.

Decent, strong window locks, like the ones that Chubb make are different, they can usually withstand a lot more. Especially if they are fitted with decent size screws, not the short little ones that you get with the cheaper locks.

However, with one correctly fitted, they "can" prevent someone getting, just not in every window, in every house etc, as they are not all the same.
