The main thing is to drill completely through the lock.
Your goal is to drill through the lock and eliminate the screw that holds the cam on the backside of the lock. As soon as the screw is gone the cam(flat price of steel) will fall out of the way. A 1/4" drill usually is enough.
That's what works for me.
Quoted from TenaciousT:I think it was a huge mistake to try and drill and not wait to get a torx bit . Why did you need to get inside so bad ? It reminds me of the razor commercial - I would have zapped you with a stun gun before you drilled .
^^^^^^ Totally agree with this.
You risk the drill catching and breaking the glass.
My suggestion was a very last resort.
