"During that process, did they specifically ask you about the locks?"
No, there was no discussion of the property (they were more familiar with it than us... We hadn't even had the keys at this stage). They sold us an off-the-shelf, generic tenants' contents policy. As I recall from my read-through (we got a copy after the break-in, in order to send it to the insurers - which was itself a warning sign), it had all sorts of conditional clauses, like "if you have an alarm you agree to switch it on when you leave the house" etc. Also it mentioned the stuff about ground floor windows, though it's a first floor flat...
