Recently we went out to change the locks on a door after customer had just moved in to the property and wanted to ensure full security.
Whilst changing the rim cylinder and providing the customer with his new keys we noted that as the door currently stood, it wouldn’t pass insurance standards – something of which the homeowner was unaware.
We agreed to return later and fit a deadlock, as a latch lock in itself is not sufficient against a determined burglar.
So make sure you comply to insurance standards – don’t forget to check your external doors and make sure that they have BS standard kitemark deadlocks fitted. For further information on all aspects of home security, please contact us or call 0800 999 2828
