If the security folks choose to open your suitcase and if it is locked, they will simply break the lock, and if the lock is a part of the suitcase that can really damage if not destroy the closing mechanism. Therefore, if you feel you must lock your suitcase, be sure to get a separate lock that is TSA Approved, which is a kind of combination lock (you set the combination) but which can be opened with a TSA key and then re-locked by TSA. They're not expensive, and almost always less than $10. Of course, I have to tell you that twice TSA opened my suitcase and then didn't put the lock back, so I lost the lock . . . I no longer bother to lock my suitcases, and have had no problems with things being stolen or destroyed or messed up. Naturally, you shouldn't put expensive or precious things into a suitcase you will turn over to others.
