UPVC SECURITY

When your upvc door is becoming harder to lock or unlock it is better to call Gavin to come and service the door before the mechanism breaks. Forcing the door open or closed will snap something inside the mech and thus will need to be replaced.

Anti Snap Locks and Lock Snapping

The burglar’s favourite method of gaining access to your home and belongings is Lock Snapping, which involves destroying your upvc door handles and snapping the euro cylinder in half. This can be done quietly and in under 30 seconds if your home is fitted with a standard euro cylinder and handles.

Bump Resistant Locks

Lock bumping is a method some burglars use to gain access to your house. Higher security locks are fitted with bump resistant technology to deter them.

Anti Drill Features

Hardened steel pins are used to protect against drilling of the lock. When the drill bit hits the steel pins it cannot cut them and they end up blunt or just snap altogether.

Pick Resistant

Normal locks can be picked easily with a little practice, the different types of security pins like spool and trap pins in high security locks prevent this method of entry.

Sash Jammers | Snap Locks

Sash Jammers are an added layer of security, usually fitted to upvc doors and windows. Because of the raised profile of the door traditional bolt will not fit.

Gavin the Locksmith recommends 2 Sash Jammers per door, one between the handle and the top of the door and one between the handle and the bottom of the door. One on each small window will suffice. For larger windows, we recommend one on either side.
