Securing UPVC Door Locks with Multipoint Door Lock Cylinders
The sight of a uPVC door on your home immediately acts as a
potent visual deterrent. Burglars know that not only are these
doors more secure than their wooden counterparts, they are also
fitted with multipoint locks: a locking mechanism that secures
from several points (from a basic 3 point, to the ultimate 7 or
10 point).
An experienced burglar can force a wooden door open in a matter
of seconds. They only have one security point (the mortice lock)
situated in the centre of the door. The same potential burglar,
faced with a multipoint locking mechanism, does not know where
the door's weak areas are - their job is 3 to 10 times more
difficult. For this reason, homes fitted with security such as
this are unlikely to be targeted as they cannot be accessed by
traditional methods.
The New Threat - Lock Cylinders
Due to increased car security, which makes modern cars virtually
impossible to break into, homes have come under increased
threat
of burglary in order that keys for vehicles can be stolen.
Because of the improvements in uPVC doors and multipoint locks,
burglars have had to become increasingly more sophisticated in
their approach - with the potential rewards of a vehicle to
drive away in being a huge incentive.
The 'weak spot' in modern doors has been isolated as the lock
cylinder. Once this weakness has been exploited, it doesn't
matter if the lock has 3, 5, 7 or 10 locking points - the
burglar can open the door by simply pulling down the handle.
Mul-t-lock are one of the first companies to develop a cylinder
that can withstand this new and devastating access method. By
installing their locks, you keep your home and your family one
step ahead of the criminals.
