FOLLOW US ON
TWITTER, SAYS DHF
Follow us - and keep on top of the
trends, hot topics and issues that
shape the door, gate and hardware
sectors. That is the message from
the Door & Hardware Federation
(DHF) which has launched its own
Twitter social media service.
Aimed at customers, specifiers,
and contractors the DHF
Twitter feed intends to deliver
instant news on changes in
legislation that impact on
the choice of DHF member
products and services.
It will give the latest guidance
on health & safety matters,
technical standards, and
maintenance issues. It will also
promote DHF’s commitment
to achieving best practice within
the industry with its training
programmes and adherence to
quality assured standards.
‘Twitter is one of
the best platforms
for us to engage
and interact
directly with
customers and
create awareness’
The Twitter conversation can
be found on the website, www.
dhfonline.org.uk and visitors
are invited to join Twitter @
DHFOnline and follow the
DHF.
It has been set up by Charlotte
Harborne, the newly appointed
DHF marketing co-ordinator.
She said: “As the largest trade
federation representing key
players within the building
hardware and industrial, garage
door, doorset and powered
gates industry sectors, the
DHF has decided to ‘join the
conversation’. It’s increasingly
recognised that involvement
in social media sites delivers
real commercial advantage to
businesses and is a powerful
way to quickly spread news
to industry contacts and
customers.
“Twitter is by far the quickest
way to discover what’s new in
the world, and this is exactly
why the DHF has taken this
strategic decision as part of our
commitment to looking after
the interests of our members
and their customers.
“In today’s busy and
competitive world every second
counts in business. Twitter
is one of the best platforms
for us to engage and interact
directly with customers and
create awareness of issues
such as changes in legislation,
health & safety and training
opportunities, quickly and
efficiently. We can’t wait to
develop the conversation with
members and with specifiers!”
DHF also has an active
presence on LinkedIn, the
business-orientated social
networking site which allows
LinkedIn members to establish
networks of people and
organisations they know and
trust professionally. Members
are also invited to join the DHF
on Google+ .

YOU HAVE FITTED SECURE
LOCKS BUT ARE THE
WINDOWS SIMPLY LIKE
UNLOCKED DOORS TO A
BURGLAR?
Many homes have double glazed
windows where the glass is secured
by a beading on the outside. This
can easily be removed and is one of
the most common ways that burglars
get in. Taking out the glass is quick
and makes no noise.
NO-GO GLASS LOCKS lock the glass
into the frame so that the glass
cannot be removed without
smashing the glass.
NO-GO GLASS LOCKS are designed
to be easily fitted to existing
windows and are a very
cost-effective way to make a
property even more secure.
NO-GO SECURITY PRODUCTS are looking for companies to
sell and install our NO-GO GLASS LOCKS. If you would like to
expand your business then contact us.
