Comment on Most secure door of the year by lockblog

Have you got a link to that?

I’ve been assured that many locks are “the most secure” but in practise there is little that beats a good pair of lever deadlocks (BS2007) on a steel faced wooden door for slowing entry.

I did a gas warrant (for non-payment, we gain entry and change the meter to Pay-As-You-Go) and they had fitted a new one on me, a high security American deadbolt, not something I’d seen “in the flesh” before. I picked it in under 10 minutes. The warrant officer told me that they must have fitted it specially, to keep us out, as it wasn’t there when they had swapped the electric meter the previous week!

I’d say that the current state of the art would be a Gemini Shield covering a good cylinder like the magnetic EVVA MCS (which graces at least one embassy front door) or a good Abloy (though having seen the latest abloy destroying technique, I’d be more wary) in a Scandinavian format, armoured escutcheons (and hinges) on a well-made composite steel door with a good multi-point hook locking system. Then add an obscure lever deadlock with extra anti-drill protection somewhere tricky.

Phil, you’d do best getting on to Barry Wels. You’ll find a link to him in the Friends links section on the right.

It’s always a great laugh. Lots of interesting people, too.

http://www.legalentry.co.uk recommend changing your alarm codes at predetermined times throughout the year at irregular intervals, this is also common when certain dates are memorable, BUT NOT BIRTHDAYS!!!

http://www.legalentry.co.uk recommend the use of a qualified and registered locksmith, rather than using all methods and techniques shown on you tube.

Comment on Good news for customers of some other locksmiths by 24_hour_manchester_locksmith

http://www.legalentry.co.uk find the use of these electric pick guns to be more and more widely used by criminal gangs and the use of these tools and widespread sales will make the advantage of higher increases in burglary more common and defy the use of qualified locksmiths with their own techniques of picking.

This tool takes away the proffesionalism and techniques we currently use and allow our trade to be opened up to all sorts of “Rogue Traders”.

BAN THE PICK GUN, NOW!!!!
