When it comes to home security, staying ahead of burglars is a relentless battle. That’s why Heritage Trade Frames has teamed up with Brisant Secure, makers of the industry-leading Ultion locks, to make sure their customers’ doors are equipped with the best protection on the market.
Last year, the discovery of two new attack methods shook the industry, revealing previously unknown vulnerabilities in most door locks. In response, the British Standards Institution (BSi) introduced stricter PAS24 standards to keep homeowners protected.
Heritage Trade Frames have long known the value of security when selling doors, indeed they were one of the first major fabricators to standardise 3-star security with Ultion back in 2016. For Paul Culshaw and the team, simply meeting the updated requirements is not enough, they want to exceed them.
After conducting their own tests, the team at Heritage were highly impressed by the Ultion lock with ALPs technology. Not only was it the first lock to meet the new standards, but it’s also the toughest they’ve ever seen.
“We take security seriously because we know our customers do too. This lock isn’t just ahead of the game, it’s the gold standard. It’s built to protect against everything burglars can throw at it, and then some.” said Paul Culshaw, Managing Director at Heritage Trade Frames
Locks with ALPs technology offer unmatched protection against every known attack method, including the newly identified thermal manipulation and twist techniques. This advanced system ensures that the moment you remove your key, the lock activates its advanced security features, keeping homes secure even if the cylinder is tampered with.
Alex Dutton, Sales Director at Brisant Secure explains “when we learned about these new attack methods, we knew we couldn’t wait for the standards to catch up, we needed to act. The Ultion ALPs is a product of that determination to stay ahead of burglars. Partnering with forward-thinking companies like Heritage Trade Frames shows that the industry can rise to meet these challenges head-on.”
The new PAS24:2022+A1:2024 standard became the benchmark for door security at the end of September, and Heritage Trade Frames is proud to say they’re leading the pack.
