GLASS WINDOW LOCKS - SIMPLE,
UNIQUE AND HIGHLY EFFECTIVE
The best inventions come from personal experience and it was through his previous jobs both
as a double glazing installer and later as a “window doctor” that David Murphy, founder of
No-Go Security Products, came up with his simple, unique but highly effective idea.
In the course of his
work, David had noticed how often he
was being called out
to replace glazed units
that had been removed
by intruders. It wasn’t
difficult to see how
easy it was for burglars to gain access to
a property fitted with
unsecured externally
beaded PVCu double
glazed windows.
David saw how distressing
these incidents were for the
householders concerned
and gave the problem some
serious thought before he
developed the concept of
the No-Go Glass Lock.
Like most of the best
ideas, the concept is a
simple enough one. One of
those products that make
you wonder why no-one
had thought of it earlier,
in fact.
No-Go Glass Window
Locks, which are manufactured in Oswaldtwistle,
Lancashire and are pro-
‘Once bonded correctly it is
impossible to separate the
glass and the metal base’
tected by patent, consist
of two parts. The lower
base part is bonded to the
glass using an approved
specially developed bonderadhesive. Once bonded
correctly it is impossible to
separate the glass and the
metal base. A second ‘shim’
is screwed to the base
which locks around the
window frame. This shim is
designed to fit anyvirtually
all window frame profiles.
With the panel locked to
the frame in at least two
corners (but preferably all
four) it is not possible to
remove the panel without
breaking the panel. This
requires considerable force,
is likely to make noise and
leaves shattersed the inner glass pane. To remove
the glass completely the
intruder needs to break
the outer pane and climb
through which the intruder
needs to climb – a big
deterrent.
It is important that the
correct installation procedures are closely followed,
but Phil Brown, the com-
pany’s technical consultant,
has made this easy with
an on-line video tutorial
and an instruction manual
downloadable from the
website (www.nogosecurity.co.uk)
For security professionals
who have not yet
discovered the
advantages of these
products, they are well
worth investigating –

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
