Clearview Door Panels - Preparing Your Home For Winter
As autumn draws near, Clearview is busy helping homeowners prepare their home for the winter months with new front and back doors. Burglars typically target older looking doors because they are less difficult to force access through.
Bifold doors made of aluminium allow Bromley homeowners to connect their homes seamlessly with their gardens. The glazed panels are insulation that prevent heat loss and cold transmission.

A secure door is a crucial element of any home, and putting in a multipoint locking system can boost your property's security levels. Multipoint locks feature deadbolts on multiple points across the door's panel, in contrast to traditional single-point locks. This makes them less difficult to be hacked into and provides you with peace of mind knowing your home is protected from unwanted burglars.
Multipoint locks are provided by numerous manufacturers and can be used on french doors, single entry doors and sliding doors. Some systems have a central deadbolt and live bolts, and hook bolts at the top and bottom of the door panels. They can be locked by key or handle. The locking points are then swiveled to create an airtight sealing.
Selecting the best multipoint lock for your home will depend on a number of factors. Consider the level of security you want as well as your family's lifestyle and needs. If you have young children for instance it is best to choose a lock that is easy to operate for them, but not easy for intruders with might be the best option.
Multipoint locking systems that have high security and insurance approval are a great option to increase the security of your home. They are also excellent for increasing energy efficiency as they provide a better seal that blocks rain and cold air.
Sash jammers
Sash jammers are a popular additional security feature for doors and windows. They are simple to set up and inexpensive. They can be installed on uPVC windows and doors that open either outwards or inwards. The Jammer Arm can be turned to lock or unlock the sash.
They're an effective burglar deterrent because they present a second obstacle for criminals trying to break into your house. They also prevent windows from being opened in the event of forced entry and safeguard your property from potential burglars who might use the window as an escape route when they're caught in.
Sash jammers can be used to keep your uPVC window or door from being pulled by children, pets or other occupants. They can be easily put in and removed simply by turning the arm, which will provide peace of mind for your family members.
You can choose between locking and non-locking sash jammers. It's important to do your research before selecting the right one for your needs. You should look into a key locking model, as this is more secure and can only be operated from the outside. Contact a reputable locksmith when you're not sure what sash-jammer to purchase. They can give advice and make recommendations that are suitable for your home.
