As the majority of UK homes tend to have UPVC windows and doors we have spent a lot of time learning about the locking mechanisms to allow us to be able to deal with the problems that can occur with these doors and windows.
There has been a lot of coverage in the media about the vulnerability of UPVC doors so to combat this problem we now offer the Mul T Lock Break Secure XP euro cylinder as our anti snap cylinder of choice.
Keyed alike cylinders - 1 key will fit a number of locks, reducing the amount of keys you need to carry.

At Bernard Toon & Son we offer a supply and install service for a range of different safes to suit both domestic and commercial applications.
Typically freestanding safes are the most popular option as they can be resited, these usually sit on the floor and are bolted into place.
They come in a variety of locking options including key, combination and even biometric now.
Depending on the size there is usually a shelf internally.
Before looking at safes you need to consider what it is you are looking to protect and what you're looking to protect it from as safes will usually fall into 1 of 2 categories, although some safes will fall into both.

You may well have heard of "cylinder snapping" or "lock snapping".Lock snapping is a very common method used by burglars to break into a property that has a euro cylinder almost all properties that have UPVC, composite and aluminium doors.
Some wooden doors use them too.
They're often used in commercial as well as domestic environments.
This method involves breaking the cylinder across its weakest point using items you'd find in an average tool box.
This method is quick and fairly quiet.
Although a good multipoint mechanism with hooks, deadbolts etc may have been fitted it's important to realise they are operated by the cylinder.
