UPVC Doors With Multi Point Locks
UPVC Doors With Multi Point Locks. An experienced burglar can force a wooden door fitted with only one mortise lock in the centre of the door open in a matter of seconds.
However, a potential burglar faced with a multi point door lock, cannot tell where the door’s weak areas are, which makes his job 3 to 10 times more difficult and time consuming, so the burglar moves on in search of easier pickings.
Therefore the sight of a UPVC door on your home can act as an excellent visual deterrent, since burglars are well aware these doors are more secure than wooden ones and they are also fitted with multi point locks.
A Multi-point door lock secures the door from several points - ranging from a basic 3-point to the best possible 7 or 10 point.
