Providing protection for farmers Locksmiths are often called upon to advise as well as provide reliable security solutions for the UK farming community, helping protect the essential work that farmers do. Locksmiths play an active role in helping to prevent the disruption that rural crime causes, and they need to be confident in the security products that they recommend, as reliable performance is essential.
That’ s where Burg-Wächter comes in with high quality, trusted products designed specifically to help combat this type of crime, meaning that locksmiths can recommend solutions safe in the knowledge that Burg-Wächter products are backed by German design as well as great customer service.
Layered security
To help secure essential equipment like quad bikes, Burg-Wächter provides the heavy-duty Motorbike Security Kit- that’ s not just for two wheels! Attack tested, the kit includes three key items- a wall / ground anchor, chain and U-Lock.
The Sold Secure tested and approved wall and ground anchor is made from solid plate steel and, with its anti-tamper fixings that once installed mean it isn’ t being removed, makes an ideal anchor point to secure vehicles and other equipment with the heavy duty Sold Secure approved 2m chain.
Made from hardened extra thick 12mm chain links, this chain makes would-be thieves lives difficult. Finally, the Police approved Sold Secure Diamond-rated high visibility U-bolt has a hardened steel shackle- which can be completely removed from the body allowing for easy threading through the chain- and body is not only secure, but highly visible thanks to its bright yellow colour.
In addition, Burg-Wächter boasts a comprehensive range of padlocks, including combination and key operated, to meet all needs, along with key suiting options that allow one key to open multiple locks – providing not only trusted security but also ease and convenience on a busy farm.
Gold standard for gun security
For farmers that need to keep guns safe and secure, Burg-Wächter’ s gun cabinet range is the gold standard when it comes to firearms security. In the UK, firearms and ammunition- at all times- must be stored securely to prevent access to it by an unauthorised person. Burg-Wächter gun cabinets far exceed the requirements set out in BS7558( 1992) and are fully compliant with the stringent European standard EN 1143-1.
This is a rigorous standard, tested by independent accredited labs, for burglary resistance in safes. Whilst many gun cabinets only meet basic local regulations, EN 1143-1 is far more demanding ensuring resistance to physical breakin with professional tools, to provide a high level of security that meets modern certified security safe standards.
Burg-Wächter Ranger gun cabinets are designed and manufactured in Germany to exacting standards, with triple-walled construction, double-walled doors and solid three-sided locking 25mm round bolts to enhance resistance against unauthorised access. Fitted with exceptional locks, there is a choice of operation – key, code or fingerprint.
Matt said,“ Whether advising customers on preventative theft of farm equipment or dealing with an emergency situation, locksmiths need to be fully aware of what’ s available to recommend and fit, especially when the consequences can have such a negative impact on equipment, property and people.
“ Locksmiths want products that they can rely on when it counts most and they can have confidence in Burg-Wächter’ s security solution where quality of both product and service is of the utmost importance.”
