  • There's a good chance of damaging the locking mechanism case by doing this.

    I've just snapped 3 basic nickel cylinders in old door lock mechanisms. Two came out ok, but one left the side of the case bent.

  • I’ve only done it once when I got locked out and replaced the cylinder with a newer model. I hadn’t thought about it doing any harm, but that does make sense now I think about it.
