Security

We take safety and security seriously. Our products, and the windows, doors and conservatories made from them, are tested, proven and accredited.

Under European Union directives, window and door products now have to carry CE marking. This is your assurance that the products comply with Building Regulations and are fit for purpose. CE marking documentation includes information about load-bearing capacities, weather tightness and energy performance.

• We use top-quality multipoint locks for security, anti-jacking technology on our sliding doors and egress hinges on all windows that could be used as escape routes.
• We use toughened safety glass wherever it is required.
• Our profiles meet PAS 24* for enhanced security and our systems are recognised by the Association of Chief Police Officers via their Secured by Design scheme.
• Our PVC-U is highly fire and impact resistant.
• All of our windows are doors are reinforced where required for structural integrity using steel, aluminium or recycled composite materials.

* PAS 24:2012 specifies test methods and acceptance criteria relevant to the enhanced security performance of doorsets and windows, intended to resist attack normally associated with the casual or opportunistic burglar.
