High Security Alarm Fitting Ormskirk 

Lockforce Locksmiths Ormskirk have much experience in providing homes and business within the city and surrounding areas with reliable security alarm systems, proven to deter thieves and prevent burglaries wherever possible. Our preferred systems to implement into properties in Ormskirk are high-security wireless alarm systems, fitted with telephone calling. This is system comes as standard with Passive Infra Red (PIR) detectors and Door Contact Sensors, tools and technology which monitor, reports and alerts the homeowners of any suspicious activity outside of the property. Additional detectors and sensors are available upon request. Furthermore, the alarm system, as standard, comes with two hi-vis yellow alarm boxes, which displays the siren box to warn passer-by’s that the device is active. This siren also meets the noise pollution regulations as set by the local councils. What’s more, is that you needn’t worry about new wiring, channelling or permanent changes throughout your household. You’d only need to change the battery pack as and when the device informs you to do so.

Insurance Compliant Locks

When it comes to your home or business security, there are many things to consider. However, one factor which many of my customers don’t always take into account is whether their locks are compliant with their home insurance policies. While such compliance is often taken for granted, it’s best to be 100% sure, failure to do so can mean in the event of a burglary, you might not be covered. Fortunately, at Lockforce Ormskirk, we only use high quality locks that are compliant with the majority of policies such as BS3621 on the home insurance market, meaning you’re better protected from theft and financial loss should a burglar attempt a break in. We will only ever fit locks that are made to the industry standards set out by the British Standards Institute. These are easily recognisable by the BS kite mark printed on the locks, this signals its excellence in the field of lock security. Go ahead and check your locks, if you can’t see this logo your locks could easily be targeted by thieves with your insurers not being obliged to pay out. If of course you are unsure whether your locks meet the insurance and Police approved standards, please give us a call today to discuss a free home security inspection and potential home security upgrade.

Ultion Locks - High Security Locks

I also stock TS007 locks, the latest form of lock upgrade to come out from the Brisant range. The TS007 is without doubt the most fortified euro-cylinder available on the domestic market, with its 3star security rating indicative of how its design has successfully withstood testing conditions deemed of a strenuous nature. The following tests are carried out by MLA locksmiths to ensure the highest security. 

1. Lock snapping - using observed techniques deployed by burglars

2. Tools to break the lock structure

3. A battering of material around the lock to weaken its fitment

However, despite these efforts, the lock’s impenetrable structure has shown to prevail!...meaning you can feel confident leaving the house with one of these top security locks fitted to your previously low-security uPVC door.  The TS007 also features not 5, not 6 but an astonishing 11 pins in its designs!!

• - 2 of which protect from drilling
• - 3 from picking
• - And one protecting from ‘lock bumping’, which is a practice whereby a burglar will open your lock using a special ‘bump key’

CCTV Install in Ormskirk

Have you considered increasing the security on your property with the use of CCTV (Video Surveillance)? At Lockforce Locksmiths Ormskirk, we fit the highest level of CCTV to meet the needs of yours and your families needs. We are fully trained and able to fit and configure full HD CCTV with all the parts and requirements which will allow you to view and record the footage at full HD 1080DP. Both the live and recorded footage can be viewed remotely or from the comfort of your sofa from a tablet or mobile phone using apps available in the app or android stores. The quality of the images will recognise facial features from a distance and even at night. Unlike a lot of imaged of CCTV that we see on the news and Crime watch, where the person is hard to identify even if you had or do see them. Additionally, the cameras also pick up car registration plates as they drive past which is ideal if you have a car park with a lot of moving traffic or a property or business set back from the main road. Just the presence of a CCTV camera is a proven and effective way to reduce crime. CCTV is also one of the first things the police will look to see if available once a crime is committed in any location. So not only do the HD CCTV cameras work as a deterrent, they also work great should they ever need to be used in court or even for identification purposes.

New Locks After Moving Home

Moving home can be stressful enough, why add the stress of home security o your concerns. Yes you have been handed a key from your agent but who had that key before you? How many copies are there and whose hands are they in? Not only should you have piece of mind that you are the only one that has access to your property but also ensure that you have an Insurance, British Strandard, Police approved lock ensuring you, your family and the posessions you have just spent days packing and unpacking are as secure as possible.  If you are unsure about the standard of your locks, why not call us at Lockforce Locksmiths in Ormskirk and we can come and conduct a security survey on your property, or you can even call us for some free advice.
