Fire Door Installation

A church in southwest London recently contacted us with a need for heightened fire safety. We discussed their current needs and decided a fire door installation with high-security locks would be their best solution to ensure proper fire prevention.

We arrived at the church to install the fire door and improved locks. We installed the fire door securely and efficiently. Once secure, we installed the high-security locks – one code lock on top and a PM560 British Standard BS3621 5 Lever Sashlock on bottom. These locks along with the fire door are the ultimate fire safety solution.

The Importance of Fire Doors

Fire doors are the ultimate fire preventative solution for a variety of homes, businesses, schools, and other institutions. Ultimately, fire doors prevent fire from spreading throughout a property. Doors of this kind can hold off fire and smoke for about three hours, therefore, protecting your valuables from any harm. Fire doors are made of high-performance fire-resistant materials.

As technology advances, so do burglars. With today’s advanced lock technology, you’d think that your deadbolt is 100% safe from burglars. We’re here to tell you that that assumption is false.

Burglars adapt to technology. No matter how advanced the lock is, burglars will find their way around it. That’s why it’s so incredibly important to update those old locks on your doors. It’s time to swap out those rustic Victorian-era locks for a smart lock.

That’s exactly what a recent client of ours did in Northwest London:

The Situation

A client of ours in Northwest London contacted us because he recently became uncomfortable with the lack of security his current locks offered. His neighbor had just experienced a burglary and he was not sure his current locks would deter a burglar of any kind.

We arrived at the home and assessed the current lock situation. The client currently had a basic lock standard lock. And although this lock offers a good amount of security, there are a variety of other locks available that provide higher security.

We removed the basic lock and replaced it with a high-security Mul-T Lock on top and a code lock on the bottom. This code lock removes the need for a key and heightens security of the home.

Mission: Lock Update – Replace basic lock with higher security lock

Lock: High-Security Mul-T Lock
