Fully compliant with PAS 23-PAS 24

CRIME REDUCTION AND RESPONSIBILITY
Secured By Design is the UK police flagship initiative supporting the principles of designing out crime. Supported and managed by the Association of Chief Police Officers, the initiative has already achieved significant successes as demonstrated by research by Huddersfield University. This shows that residents living in SBD developments experience between 54% and 67% less crime.

All local authorities have a responsibility under Section 17 of the Crime & Disorder Act 1998 to take account of community safety and crime reduction in all aspect of their duties.

SECURED BY DESIGN LICENSED PRODUCTS
Essential to the Secured By Design scheme are Licensed Products which are successfully tested to meet the relevant Police Preferred Specifications. The Specifications for doors are PAS 23-1: 1999, which is a performance standard that certifies that a door set is fit for purpose; and PAS 24-1: 1999 which covers enhanced security performance requirements for door assemblies. This is an attack test standard that certifies that a door, frame lock and hardware set has withstood a series of physical tests based on common methods of burglary using defined sets of tools and attack time.
