Security

Gates

If you have perimeter fencing around your property, and the entrance to your driveway is exposed.  Wrought iron security gates are worth considering.

Driveway security gates can provide increased protection for your home, including your family, cars and valuables.  In addition can also reduce the chances of vandalism.

Automatic driveway gates are a desirable home improvement that are convenient to use and can be activated by pressing a hand transmitter from within your car or automatically triggered by breaking the beam on an external sensor.

Garage Doors

Most early up and over doors had retractable mechanism and tended to have horizontal locking bars that were located behind the side jambs to secure the door.

This type of locking afforded reasonable security.  With the introduction of the canopy door, during the sixties came very simple locking systems, a single cable and latch to the top of the door.  That provided next to no security.

Fast forward to the nineties and manufacturers started to improve the canopy door locking system on Britain’s most popular garage door.  Not only were these doors supplied with twin or triple point locking but the external handle became much more secure.  These days most doors have twin locking with the option to upgrade to four point locking.

If you have an early garage door and want to increase security, why not consider a Garage Defender?  Easily fitted to existing doors, it is an effective and visual deterrent, providing a high security bar located immediately in front of the garage door, preventing it from being forced open and making access virtually impossible.

Another option to consider would be Extrastop Universal Garage Door Bolts.  Also a visual deterrent deadbolt locking system, yet very discreet.

These cost effective security devices can be added to most types of up and over garage doors, old or new.  Straightforward for the DIY enthusiast to fit, or call 0800-716569 and we can supply and fit for you.
