Its an unfortunate fact that we have to take very seriously the threat of break ins into conservatories. Today we use conservatories as 2nd lounges, dining rooms and we often have equipment such as TVs, Hifis, computers as well as other valuables. Conservatories to be honest were always seen as the easy option for a burgular... NOT ANY MORE... all the Platinum range of conservatories feature the following standard security features.

  • All glass is glazed from the inside ensuring the glass cannot be easily removed.
  • Windows can lock in the vented position and feature dead locking handles
  • Doors feature Multi-point locks with triple claw action, dead bolts and sliding cams
  • Hinges are protected with anti jemmy points
  • All locks are anti bump and anti cylinder rip
  • Windows have double shoot bolts and a dead bolt system
  • All window hinges are defender to stop forcing on the hinge side
  • Roof glazing is secured by locking cappings requiring a specialist tool for removal

What is lock bumping?

Lock bumping is a method of using a similar brand key and then using a blunt instrument to knock the pins to align with the intruder key enabling your lock to be opened quickly and easily

Cylinder Rip?

The cylinder where it joins in the middle is only connected with a very small amount of metal or plastic, this can be forced by either impact or more commonly pulling the cylinder, again effecting easy quick entry. The new range of cylinders are designed to have their faces ripped off leaving the lock embedded and still affording good security.
