With the holiday season in full swing there is never a more necessary time to reassess your home security.
It’s a busy time of year for burglars with a high percentage of people in the UK choosing to take their main annual holiday during the summer months.
There has been a huge trend towards PVCU replacement external doors in recent years. In total, figures show there are somewhere near 48 million PVCU external doors out there! This increase has led to lock manufacturers starting to product a British standard euro cylinder designed specifically for PVCU doors providing higher levels of protection against cylinder attack.
The features of the new replacement locks include “a snap-off” front section so the burglar cannot get at the cam to turn it, you are still able to get your key in to unlock the door, but without the front section it makes it harder to grip what is left of the cylinder.
Those people who suffer from paraskevidekatriaphobia (fear of Friday the 13th), may say if anything untoward is going to happen its going to happen today!!
