MLAEXPO2017 • 29 From a carrier bag to winning “best product” at the MLA Expo17, the SASHSTOP is growing from strength to strength… » » SASHSTOP IS AN INNOVATIVE internal and external additional security product that can be quickly and easily installed on doors and windows – and was proudly launched at the recent MLA Expo in Telford! The SASHSTOP Team would like to say a ‘big thank you’ to all who attended the show, with inventor Paul Batty saying, “we had a fantastic response at the recent MLA EXPO, we even won the awesome “Best Product” award which has been very humbling. I started with an idea to try and help my mother in law, and used to bring my prototypes in a carrier bag – now we have built a team, with our own stock, on our own stand at the biggest show in Europe and we won the award, it is just great!” There has been a fantastic response for the SASHSTOP range with positive feedback from installers saying how easy and versatile the products are. The ability to use it as an extra security feature on a door or window is one thing, but the internal and external operational functionality allows for use as a “get out” in the event of not having the correct mechanisms to repair a door at the time, so simply apply a SASHSTOP (or two) to the door to provide absolute peace- of-mind knowing that they are safe and secure, and can still lock and leave the property without worry. We spoke to Paul about the future, and he said “We are confident of our products, but we want locksmiths and installers to share the same confidence by installing our products so we are looking to help by offering ‘van samples’ to locksmiths meaning they can try the product and keep it in the van to show their customers – please get in touch with the Team! We also have some exciting developments lined up and look forward to sharing them at the Lock Expo, but get on-board and get in touch if anyone has any questions. Our Team will be happy to help!” The SASHSTOP range is available online at: sashstop.co.uk, please get in touch with any questions or for Trade Accounts via email: [email protected] CE marked Certifire approved Rating: 3M710G4BC20 FD30 & FD60 fire rated Anti-saw / drill protection 316 stainless steel forend 10 year guarantee Available in: > Sashlock > Deadlock > Latch > Nightlatch > Bathroom > Anti Thrust > Panic approved DOM D31 lockcases LOCKSMITHJOURNAL.CO.UK | NOV/DEC 2017 Sponsored by ABUS
