superglued lock

Hi, I just wondered if anyone knows how to remove superglue from a lock. Someone has superglued the lock to my allotment today.
Thanks

You can get superglue remover but if its in a lock then the best thing might be to replace the lock. what kind of lock is it?

You could try a super glue dissolver, I think a couple of brands are stick2, Locktile or you could try Acetone like nail polish remover. I fyou don't have the patience bolt cutters and a new lock will do the trick.

Thank you for the replies, I have now removed the lock by breaking the hasp off as the lock was a really heavy duty outdoor one and was impossible to cut through.

I really need to know now for next time as I suspect this is a personal attack on me really as someone wants to drive me off.

Any suggestions for a vandal proof lock would be welcome.

Thanks
