Insurance Approved Locks.

Most home insurance companies require that a property has a minimum standard of security. Failure to comply with their requirements may leave you uninsured or have penalties imposed on you should you make a claim.

We always advise our customers to check there policy documents or insurance companies website. There are many variations on what most insurance companies require.

The general rule is:
The Association of British Insurers (ABI) guidelines require all final exit doors to be fitted with 5-lever mortice locks (or equivelant) conforming to BS 3621 and marked with the BS Kitemark. Rack bolts or security bolts generally fitted to rear back doors.

We are always happy to discus or offer free advice or a quotation for any lock or home security upgrades.
