Why Modern Windows and Doors Are Essential for Home Security
Traditional windows and doors often lack the advanced security features needed to prevent break-ins. Modern solutions integrate multi-point locking systems, toughened glass, and reinforced frames, making it significantly harder for burglars to gain entry.
Investing in state-of-the-art windows and doors not only secures your home but also increases its value and energy efficiency.
How Taylorglaze windows and doors enhance home security
1. High-Security Glazing for Maximum Protection
Taylorglaze offers double-glazed and triple-glazed windows, which provide enhanced security compared to traditional single-pane windows. Our glazing solutions include:
Laminated Glass: This type of glass has an interlayer that holds the panes together even when shattered, making forced entry much more difficult.
Toughened Safety Glass: Designed to withstand impact, toughened glass is far more resistant to breakage than standard glass.
Acoustic and Security Laminates: Not only do they reduce noise pollution, but they also add an additional layer of protection against intrusion.
2. Multi-Point Locking Systems for Enhanced Security
Unlike standard windows and doors that often have simple locks, Taylorglaze products feature multi-point locking mechanisms. These include:
Shoot Bolts: These are positioned at multiple points along the frame, securing the door or window in place.
Anti-Lift Hinges: These prevent doors and windows from being forcibly removed from their frames.
Key Locking Handles: High-security handles ensure that intruders cannot manipulate locks from the outside.
3. Reinforced Frames to Prevent Forced Entry
Weak frames can make it easy for burglars to force their way inside. Taylorglaze windows and doors come with reinforced uPVC and aluminium frames, which provide:
- Greater structural integrity
- Improved resistance against prying tools
- Longer-lasting durability
4. Advanced Security Features for Doors
Our range of composite doors, uPVC doors, and aluminium doors are designed with security in mind. Key features include:
Solid Core Construction: Composite doors have a solid core reinforced with materials like steel and fiberglass for maximum strength.
Secured by Design Accreditation: Many of our products meet the strict standards set by the UK police initiative, ensuring top-tier security performance.
Anti-Snap, Anti-Bump, and Anti-Pick Cylinders: These high-security locks prevent common burglary techniques, keeping your home protected.
