London, UK – Metropolitan Police Service of London highlighted the importance of using quality locks in a series of articles and interactive tours. In order to help London residents out with this, Locked-out LockSmiths (www.lockedout-locksmiths.co.uk) has just published a new blog post authored by Brendan Connolly entitled 'Secure Your Homes with the Help of London Locksmiths, Advises the Met.
The article references a series published on the the police officers’ association website, 'Total Policing' which emphasises the need for professional home security options.
“Doors are the primary route of entry and exit for most burglars,” states the article series. “So it’s vital you secure them effectively. You can improve home security by making simple adjustments to your front door, for example, ensure you have adequate locks and security fittings.”
The article relates that 'The Met advised homeowners to make sure that their houses’ door frames are sufficiently strong to withstand repeated impacts from ramming; London Bars or Birmingham bars are ideal for providing structural support in this case. Police officials also encouraged families to install high-reliability security systems such as 5-lever deadlocks, and familiarise themselves with the use of these devices’.
“Safety measures such as these provide a couple of long-term benefits,” stated Connolly further, “better security that will add to a home’s market value, and improved residential protection that will make the property owner eligible for higher-quality insurance coverage. Reliable locks and security devices thus represent some of the most valuable investments that a homeowner can make, and this aspect is where specialist firms like Lockedout Locksmiths can prove their worth.”
