Blowtorch Attack – How To Protect Yourself
Blowtorch attacks are quite frequent in the north of England but no so much in the West Midlands. The problem, a burglar uses a blowtorch to try and melt the plastic of a UPVc door or a composite door.
The solution to defeat such an attack, or at the very least massively slow it down, is to fit anti snap locks. Whilst they are a little bit more expensive than the cheapest locks they are much more secure. Any small saving by accepting weak locks will be very quickly wiped out if your are the victim of theft.
Here at Edwards Locksmiths we usually fit the Ultion Anti Snap locks. Made in the UK and these are designed to resist being snapped open.
What Can You Do To Stop This?
Edwards Locksmiths can fit a lock which is designed to make this type of attack much harder. Ultion Locks are designed to with stand this type of attack. If your Ultion lock is snapped in this way once you have registered it they will pay you £5000 in compensation.
Clearly this demonstrates the faith they have in their locks. As a registered fitter of Ultion locks Edwards Locksmiths can advise on how you can increase your security and peace of mind.
If you are concerned that your locks might not be up to the Euro Star 3 Standard please give Edwards Locksmiths a call and we can explore the options for making your home more secure.
