As well as being attractive, durable, energy efficient and welcoming, a front door should also act as a barrier and deterrent to even the most persistent of intruders.
Designing out crime
Home security is a topic that should never be ignored. It’s reported that 73% of burglars gain access through the front door, as more intruders are becoming experts at ‘lock bumping’ modern cylinder door locks.
As a company, we are committed to supporting the principles of ‘designing out crime’ and we work with a number of partners and test houses to ensure our doors are secure and safe.
