Front Door Security Upgrade in Loughborough
Lock-snap attack is the single most common method of forced entry in the East Midlands. A 3-star cylinder costs under £70 and stops it dead. Insurers increasingly require it. Fitted and diagnosed by our own team across Loughborough (LE11–LE12) — never subcontracted.
No salesmen, no high-pressure visits.
The full security package we recommend
Home insurers are increasingly asking whether your door hardware meets TS007 3-star. If it doesn't, a break-in claim can be partially declined. In Loughborough we do full security-upgrade audits — cylinder, hinges, letterplate, keeps — and quote a package fix in one visit.
How we fix it
We audit your current front-door hardware against a modern PAS 24 spec: cylinder rating, hinge bolts, letterplate protection, keep quality, glazing bead security. Then quote an upgrade package. TS007 3-star anti-snap cylinder, anti-fishing letterplate cowl or replacement letterplate, hinge bolts on the hinge side, upgraded strike plates. Fitted in a single 2-hour visit.
- TS007 3-star cylinder — police Secured by Design approved
- Full package fitted in one visit
- Compliant with most home insurance policy requirements
- Likely causes on Loughborough homes: Doors installed before 2011 rarely came with 3-star cylinders; Budget new-builds fitted with unmarked cylinders as a cost-saving.
