HARDWARE& SECURITY
The cylinder that won’t be broken
Brisant has launched Ultion, a high quality, high security cylinder that offers
real security. The anti-snap, anti-drill and anti-bump cylinder is the solution
for the window and door industry where security, despite its selling
power, is more often a matter of perception than real protection.
»»Brisant CEO Steve
Stewart comments: “Containing
four sacrificial anti-snap sections,
twelve hardened steel pins, four
anti-drill plates and a unique
lockdown mode that activates
when attacked, Ultion is the most
secure lock on the market and we
continue to develop it so it stays
the best.”
Steve explains: “When
spending £1,000 to £3,000 on
a new door protected by secure
looking hooks and bolts, you
expect it to be secure. But a
door is only as secure as the
cylinder. Hardware standards are
complicated and confusing, so
people
think they mean more than
they do. Many anti-snap cylinders
can actually be snapped in well
under a minute, so installers are
selling doors
with much less security than they
think.”
Ultion is one of only two
cylinders to have achieved the
Master Locksmith Association’s
(MLA) Sold Secure Diamond,
the only test for real security. It is
awarded to cylinders that cannot
be broken by any attack. Tests are
carried out by skilled locksmiths
who try all known methods for
gaining entry and can spend as
long as they like trying to break
the cylinder.
Steve adds: “Trained MLA
locksmiths worked for 2.5 hours
and couldn’t break it. Ultion
really is the lock that locks.”
