BackTuesday 10th March 2020The importance of secure double glazing in your home
We all know just how important security is for our home. Protecting your family, valuables and property itself is vital, and that’s why we take security seriously here at Berben.
With advancements in technology and more sophisticated tools, the threat of break-ins and intrusions remains high across the West Midlands, and throughout the rest of the country.
That’s why keeping our homes protected from potential threats is so important, and the double glazing in your property plays a huge part.
Our windows and doors are the main entry points for burglars, and that’s why secure double glazing is so important. Double glazing is designed to be highly resistant against break-ins and will perform when it’s needed.
Why double glazing is so secure
Double glazing is designed with security in mind. We provide safe and secure PVCu windows that are not only renowned for their good looks, but their great security benefits too.
They offer impressive security features, from robust and sturdy PVCu frames, to highly secure locking systems and hardware.
All these features ensure our PVCu windows and doors achieve PAS 24 certification, which means they have been tested to the highest security standards.
Toughened glass
At the forefront of our secure double glazing is toughened glass.
Toughened glass is designed to be more durable, which makes it much harder to break, longer to break and noisier to break. This means that it will take intruders longer to gain access to your property, and will cause plenty of noise in the process, which will help alert others to their crime.
Strong and durable PVCu
PVCu is the ideal material to use when it comes to secure double glazing in your home. It brings great strength, resilience and robustness together to provide an all-round highly secure window frame that will help to maintain security levels. When you combine the strength and durability of PVCu with latest locking technology and secure double glazing, you achieve a really secure window design that will help to keep your home protected.
High security locking systems
At Berben we use high security multipoint locking systems to help secure our PVCu windows and doors.
Multipoint locking works by securing the window in several different places with one turn of a key, helping to increase the resistance of the windows against attacks.
Secure hardware Even our hardware and accessories are designed to have great security benefits too!
Our PVCu double glazing comes with Fab ‘N’ Fix inline handles that not only offer great looks, but enhanced security as well.
Secured by Design accredited
A great feature to look out for with secure double glazing is whether the windows are Secured by Design (SBD) accredited.
Secured by Design is an initiative by the Chief of Police Officers to help design out crime by advocating products that have the highest levels of security.
PVCu windows earn SBD accreditation if they offer police preferred security levels. At Berben, we provide an SBD upgrade for our range of PVCu windows for an added layer of security.
