Yes, high-security locks can be installed on wooden doors, though the strength of the door and frame must be considered. Mortice locks, deadbolts and anti-snap euro cylinders are common options for wooden doors. Reinforcing the door frame and installing a strike plate with long screws can enhance the door's resistance to forced entry. If your wooden door is old or damaged, upgrading the door itself may also be necessary for optimal security.

Lock snapping is a method where burglars break the lock cylinder to gain entry. To protect against this, you should install anti-snap locks, which feature break-off sections that prevent access to the internal locking mechanism. These locks are designed to withstand this common attack technique. Look for euro cylinders with anti-snap, anti-drill and anti-pick features, and consider upgrading any older locks that don't meet modern security standards.
