Trellidor operates in an industry where lives are sometimes at risk. This is why we take the manufacturing of our security barriers so seriously. As a responsible security barrier manufacturer, we try to balance price against strength under attack. This is because we feel everyone has the right to be safe at home or work. But people sometimes expect a Mercedes Benz quality barrier at Toyota Taz prices and this we cannot do!
Yes, price is important. But there is no point in installing a barrier that will buckle at the first firm kick it receives. The trick is to find the balance between barriers that will stand up to an attack for an acceptable amount of time at a price that people are willing to pay.
Innovative barriers to keep you safe
Of course, if we all had the money we’d install the Rolls Royce of sliding security barriers, the Trellidor Trojan II-T1000. It isn’t pretty but it is extremely effective. We developed it for high risk situations such as the London Underground network. It has been certified to an admirable and unmatched Level 2 in terms of strength under attack by the LPCB (Loss Prevention Certification Board). This is an internationally recognised and trusted certification board.
Most of us don’t require and can’t afford such high strength barriers. But we do want barriers that make us feel safe and give us a fighting chance during a home invasion. What we need is security gates and burglar proofing that will hold up well if attacked by an intruder, giving us a chance to call for help or make an escape.
Our recommendations are as follows:
-
Trellidor Retractable Security T500, T700 or T800. These are similar in their trellis-style looks but differ in terms of strengthening features. Your local Trellidor franchise will help you decide which model you need.
-
Trellidor Rollerstyle shutters, especially if you want to create a safe zone at home. To do this, request a shutter to be fitted in your passage or stairway.
-
Trellidor Clear Guard screens. Although these are see-through, they are made from woven steel. If this steel mesh is cut, it leaves extremely sharp serrated edges that could cause serious lacerations to hands when attempting to get through it. This makes breaking into the home very difficult.
-
Trellidor Cottage Guard for windows one of the strongest forms of burglar proofing on the market.
-
Trellidor Fixed Security, a trellis-style barrier similar in looks and strength to Trellidor Retractable Security gates.
Call your local Trellidor franchise or visit their showroom to see all these innovative products and find out what makes them strong.
