- Breaking the glass in the door and reaching through. (Notice how every door in that video had glass panes?)
- Drilling through the deadbolt to drill out the screws.
- Crowbarring the door.
- Kicking the door open.
- Picking/bumping/drilling the lock cylinder, then driving a couple screws or thin chisel into it to give you the leverage to turn it with a longer lever, especially with this advertised on their own Tech Specs page:
"Portability: Can be attached with double sided tape or hook and loop fasteners for temporary use"
And I love how they tried to play up the "nationwide epidemic of bumping!!!", showing pictures of a young woman, old people and other supposedly easily frightened customers.
It's just another little extra-2-seconds-of-security device.
They only say that it protects against, lock bumping, lock picking, and to prevent little children from leaving the house, nothing about crowbars. There tons of ways to get through a door, crowbarring and kicking it in are pretty noticeable.
