Keep homes safe with entrance door security

Door security expert UAP Ltd is leading the fight to improve homeowner and tenant security after developing a range of anti-theft products.

Although official crime statistics show there was a small decrease in the number of domestic burglaries in 2011, the threat of opportunistic crime will always put homeowners and tenants at risk.

UAP has recognised that with this risk, people will be crying out for extra security to safeguard their homes and has identified a top anti-theft list which can easily and cost-effectively transform a weak, defenceless door into a protective barrier to property.

Included in this list is the UAP Identity Card Slot, an easy-to-fit, corrosion resistant product, which allows tenants and homeowners complete control over who they open their door to and, gives a warning to bogus callers that the property is protected.

Fitting an identity Card Slot acts as a visual deterrent to fraudulent doorstep callers as they know will have to push an identification card through a slot so the details can be studied safely – and will often turn away.

UAP’s Sales Director Chris Pankhurst says: “Home security is an increasing concern in today’s world and, as new warnings are being issued about rogue and criminal doorstep callers, homeowners will be looking to protect themselves and their homes through increased security measures.

“We recognised these concerns when designing the Identity Card slot, which offers homeowners piece of mind. Fitting this product means that the homeowner can feel safe in the knowledge the caller is genuine rather than opening the door to a potentially dangerous situation.

“What’s more, it will decrease the chance of doorstep scammers as often bogus callers will not attempt to target a ‘protected’ property.”

The product is covered by a two-year guarantee and incorporates sleek design and straightforward usability.

It can be fitted to existing and new UPV, Wood and Composite doors and comes in a choice of polished PVD gold or polished stainless steel, in 20-40mm and 40-80mm thickness.”

The other products on the top anti-theft list are: UAP+ Zero lift kitemark cylinder, UAP Anti-vandal letterplate, Door Viewer, Identity Card Slot and Security Chain

UAP offer 48-hour delivery on all stocked products or orders can be collected from the Trade Counter at Whitefield.
