SECURITY CHANGING SUPPLIER FOR SAFEST DOORS » » MORE COMPOSITE DOOR installers are changing their door supplier to ensure they have the safest lock on the market. Ultion, the 3 Star Sold Secure Diamond lock from Brisant-Secure, is increasingly the lock of choice. The opportunity of having Ultion fitted as standard, with an option of the Lock Lock security handle, makes a lot of sense. Matt Dunne Smith from Oswestry Windows and Doors (OWD) says, “People are ‘security obsessed’ these days. It’s so important to them, that it’s vital for me to be able to offer the safest doors.” OWD’s door sales have increased because they look after people. Not only do they provide every door with Ultion, they offer customers the opportunity of being fully Brisant Secure, with Ultion on all entrance doors, including the garage and shed, even with a padlock if necessary. Brisant offers a next day keyed-alike service so all the locks can be fitted at the same time as the door. The supplier is also so confident with how Ultion protects against snapping, it will give a £1000 guarantee direct to the homeowner. www.brisant-secure.com NEW HAVERHILL HARDWARE BASE EASY ON THE EYE » » TITON HAS COMPLETED THE refurbishment of its state-of-the-art 4.5-acre manufacturing base in Haverhill; following significant investment in modernising the conference and display facilities, as well as the two onsite reception areas.
