UAP LAUNCHES NEW BULLET DOOR CHAIN:

Slimmer, stronger security with a sleek, stylish finish
» UAP LTD, A LEADING UK-BASED supplier of high-quality door hardware and security solutions, has launched an innovative new Bullet Door Chain: a nextgeneration door security chain engineered for strength, style, and effortless installation.
Designed with a thinner yet more durable profile, the new Bullet Door Chain meets and exceeds the latest TS003 security requirements and is fully PAS 24-compliant, delivering robust protection without compromising aesthetics. Featuring a unique bullet-shaped chain end, the force of impact is distributed evenly across the bracket and receiver, reducing stress and enhancing long-term durability.
The chain’ s sleek magnetic park system keeps it securely and neatly in place on the wall when not in use, elevating the look of any door with a polished, design-led finish. Thicker chain links increase overall strength and tamper resistance while maintaining a slim, modern profile that complements contemporary interiors. Available in a range of premium finishes, the Bullet Door Chain comes with pre-fitted fixings, providing the fastest installation experience on the market and saving valuable time on site.
Adam Dixon, Senior Technical Manager at UAP Ltd, commented:“ The all-new Bullet Door Chain is a perfect example of how innovative design and engineering can redefine everyday hardware. Slimmer, stronger, and smarter, it delivers uncompromised security while enhancing the door’ s aesthetic appeal.
“ Backed by patent applications and protected design rights, it reflects UAP’ s commitment to driving progress in door hardware innovation— combining strength, style, and functionality in one elegant solution. Whether for residential or commercial use, the Bullet Door Chain raises the standard for door hardware security across the board.”

SQUIRE INTRODUCE TOUGHEST PADLOCK YET WITH SS100CS LEV5

» SQUIRE LOCKS HAS launched its strongest padlock yet – an enhanced version of the SS100CS, which is widely regarded as the world’ s strongest padlock.
The SS100CS LEV5 receives a rating of SR5 from the LPCB( Loss Prevention Certification Board), making it the first and only padlock to have ever achieved this grade.
The level 5 rating demonstrates the padlock’ s extreme resistance against attacks from powerful batteryoperated tools. By achieving LPCB SR5, SS100CS LEV5 effectively stands up against a range of tools, including angle grinders, circular saws and drills to a level unachieved by any previous padlock.
The ultimate security solution
Alongside LPCB SR5 certification, SS100CS LEV5 is also CEN grade 6 accredited, the highest accreditation available, further demonstrating the padlock’ s strength.
The padlock is also accredited by Secured by Design, the official police security initiative, and is supplied with four keys plus a security key card to prevent unauthorised key duplication – new keys can only be cut by Squire, ensuring they never fall into the wrong hands.
Ideal for high security applications, such as critical national infrastructure, the Squire SS100CS LEV5 boasts a 100mm wide hardened steel body, and a 20mm diameter
boron hardened steel shackle, both reinforced with tungsten carbide for even further resistance against attack. Antidrill protection offers enhanced defence against tampering.
Commitment to building the best
The SS100CS LEV5 builds upon Squire’ s 245-year commitment to manufacturing high-quality, high-performance security solutions.
John Squire, CEO, said:“ The introduction of the SS100CS LEV5 shows exactly what we’ re capable of at Squire and how we’ re constantly innovating to produce highly accredited padlocks for our commercial customers.
“ Our newly achieved SR5 accreditation sets a benchmark
in the industry, reaffirming our position as leaders in high-security solutions. We’ re not just making the strongest padlock, we’ re giving our customers total confidence that their most critical assets are protected against even the most determined attacks. We’ re proud of our SR5 certification and will continue to strive to produce the most effective security solutions on the market.”
