The fix for this problem is to get a Group I lock, which is non- manipulable. These cost about $100
more than a Group II lock. Also if you have a very nice collection, a Group IR (radiation resistant)
lock will prevent those safe crackers that haul around a portable x-ray machine from x-raying the
lock to read off the numbers. They cost only a few dollars more, however there is a theoretical
disadvantage that the acetate wheels in the lock would be less durable than the metal wheels in the
standard Group I lock. Because this method of attack is a sophisticated one, it is unlikely to be used
except by professional burglars, and only if the potential haul justifies it.
