Perimeters
Mul-T-Lock’s new high security
state of the art padlock and cylinder
systems has been installed by Abel
Alarms at two solar panel farms
to provide ultimate protection
around the gated perimeter.
»»To combat the threat of
vandalism and metal theft, solar farms
across the country are investing in highend security solutions to meet stringent
safety and agricultural regulations.
In Somerset, Taunton, with no security
currently in place at two local solar panel
farms, local Mul-T-Lock supplier, Abel
Alarm, proposed Mul-T-Lock’s new NE
Closed Shackle Padlocks, with Integrator
cylinder systems to offer patented
protection for the solar panel farm.
So successful, Abel Alarms has now
installed Mul-T-Lock’s specialist G Series
padlocks at a second solar farm to protect
the perimeter and add an extra layer of
high security.
Marcus Kershaw, Locksmith at Abel
Alarm, comments: “Due to the remote
and isolated locations of the solar farms,
coupled with metal theft being on the rise,
solar farms have become a prime target
for opportunist criminals. Our focus was
to secure the perimeter with high security
padlock solutions with a mechanically
patented system where only authorised
personnel could enter.
‘Now located all
along the perimeter
the padlocks have
worked really well to
provide the highest
level of security for
the important work of
the solar panel farms’
“Mul-T-Lock remains the market
leader in offering patented security
solutions, with a padlock portfolio that
offers maximum efficiency and high
security together with great performance
even in harsh environments, and total
serviceability. Now located all along the
perimeter the padlocks have worked really
well to provide the highest level of security
for the important work of the solar panel
farms.”
Mul-T-Lock’s high security padlocks
provide compliance with current
standards and feature a double locking
hardened boron alloy steel shackle, for
greater strength and protection from
attack.
With protective shutters to prevent
dust and road grime contamination, plus
shackle drainage holes to prevent freezing,
the padlocks provide both durability and
long term performance, perfect for harsh
rural environments.
