Master Locksmiths Association Handbook 2012 3

I have been a locksmith since leaving school in 1965 at theage of 15 yrs, (that's given my age away) starting anapprenticeship with a long established Locksmithcompany in Liverpool known as HS Gillespie's. Ieventually developed my skills and with the assistanceof my wife Linda, I started my own Locksmith Companyand we now have branches in St Helens & Liverpool.

In the early days of my career, many locksmiths kepttheir skills and little secrets they had learnt to themselvesand I always thought that was not the right way to gobecause when they sadly passed away or retired, thatknowledge was lost to the next generation. I am awarethat there are some areas in Locksmith skills that arehighly competitive and I completely understand peoplenot wanting to divulge certain methods they havedeveloped to enhance their particular area of expertisebut there are many areas in which certain knowledgeshould be passed on and the Master LocksmithsAssociation is the perfect conduit for this to happen.

When I first joined the Master Locksmiths Association,there was a lot of secrecy amongst the membership buttimes have changed and I have found that there are manyhighly skilled members in the Association who are keento pass on their knowledge for the good of the professionto other members and student members who are keen tolearn and promote the skills that are required to be agood locksmith.

I strongly believe in the Master Locksmiths Associationand what it stands for and I am not alone in wanting tohelp people secure their future in what I think is one ofthe best jobs around. I joined the MLA 25 years ago andduring that time, I have attended as many regionalmeetings as possible and I have picked up many littletricks, tips and ideas as well as learning about newproducts coming into the market place but thesemeetings have also allowed me to meet many likeminded members whose dedication, skill andknowledge are un-surpassed.

I became a regional official with the Northern Region,and was a member of the Board of the Association for 11years during which time I was National Chairman for 3years, a post which I enjoyed tremendously and I havenow been elected President of the MLA, a position whichI am very proud to hold and I am very grateful to theMLA Board for their confidence in choosing me. I havesome very hard acts to follow, many distinguishedpeople have been in this position, Tony Clare, Ken Bryanand my predecessor Val Stokes who did a wonderful jobas President for 7 years and I would like to thank Val forher tenure and all her efforts to promote the associationand what it stands for.

In this handbook you will find a list of the benefits ofbeing a member of the Association, together withtechnical information on standards, security advice andinformation of the Chubb Award which is given to amember who has supported the ideals of the professionand the Nigel Rose Bowl award which is given to thehighest achiever in the Full Members Exam, both ofwhich are an annual presentation. The handbook alsocontains a full listing of Trade Division members of theAssociation who have all been inspected for the areas ofexpertise they advertise and this listing is an invaluabletool not only for prospective clients, such as InsuranceCompanies, Police and such like but also for member tomember service on a national level. This can proveinvaluable to help companies be competitive by promptservice to national contracts and keep costs down but stillmaintain a good service and a high quality of work.

Gary EckersallMLA President

Recognised as the authoritative body for locksmithing by the police, home office,British Standards Institute (BSI), The Risk Insight, Strategy and Control Authority (RISCAuthority;formally IPCRes, the UK property insurers' technical group) and Building Research Establishment(BRE), the MLA also has a subsidiary company, Sold Secure, which performs certification of securityproducts via manual attack testing.

Well what a 12 months it's been! Since writing my piece forthe last Handbook the MLA has been more than active!

Firstly there was the first International Auto Conventionrun in conjunction with the European LocksmithsFederation and the Auto Locksmiths Association. As itwas the first event of its kind we weren't really sure whatto expect, but we certainly couldn't have predicted theroaring success that it was! With over 400 visitors frommore than 24 counties, plenty of training, networking andof course exhibitors on hand to highlight the latestdevelopments in the industry it was certainly deemed bythose who attended to have been well worth the effort.We look forward to hopefully seeing another associationelsewhere in the world take up the mantel and run thenext one.

Then there was the development and launch of theassociation's new web based forum. Whilst the MLA wasone of the first associations to have a web forum I think itwas fair to say that it was time to update it and so modernphpBB software was introduced to create a 21st centuryforum. It seems to have worked as with well over 1050topics already covered in the first 12 months of existence(and more being added each day) it's one of the busiest inthe industry! Talking about the 21st Century, nobody canhave failed to see the increasing popularity of socialmedia and once again the MLA has been taking fulladvantage of this with its own Facebook page and twitterfeed. It's an excellent way to help promote the associationand its members whilst also providing useful informationto people. It proved particularly useful for promotingExpo for example and highlighting who was exhibitingand what was going on. We even kept up a tweetcommentary on the build days and actual show days too!

Membership benefits have been increased and taken upin droves. Mind you with savings of £6k + to be made onVauxhall vehicles it's not surprising that they get takenup! In particular we've looked at ways of helpingmembers in their day to day business. This has led to usteaming up with a credit card processing company wherethere's no need for a terminal (ideal for those who don'ttake credit card payments very often) as well as a deal formembers to gain access to asset finance, as well as beingable to offer finance terms to their own customers oncertain types of installations.

Training has been progressed with the launch of a coupleof new courses. CCTV has proved a popular one aslocksmiths look to increase their service offering. Due topopular demand we've also run a couple of ElectricalSafety courses where attendees upon passing a shortpractical at the end of the course get a certificate ofcompetency for connecting to a fused spur.

Training is actually one of the areas that has seen one ofthe major industry milestones this year. The MLA has along history of working with the industry skills bodySkills for Security, having previously been involved withthe development of the National Occupational Standards(NOS) for the Physical Security Sector, but with our driveto legitimise the profession we have pushed to look todevelop standards within the locksmithing sector itself.Well after a significant amount of input I'm happy toreport that in April 2011 the regulator UKCES approvedthe locksmiths specific NOS thereby paving the way forfurther development within the industry. Whilst havingbeen a driving force behind this development, the MLAhas cemented its place at the head of the industry bydeciding to fund the next 2 steps from the NOS creationwhich entail the development of a nationally recognisedqualification and a formal apprenticeship. The first parthas just been completed with the qualification frameworkhaving been submitted to the awarding bodies forcreation into the nationally recognised qualification itself.

The promotion of MLA licensed locksmiths has of courseplayed a very important role and we've been delightedwith the amount of press coverage generated for theassociation and members. Promotion of approvedcompanies is of course one of the main benefits ofmembership and as well as this new formant handbookand the website (itself undergoing a complete overhaul)then editorial content in various outlets helps raise theprofile of MLA licensed locksmiths and the association

Overview from the Director of Business Development

Master Locksmiths Association Handbook 201210

alike, whilst helping the end user understand who theyshould be calling for their security requirements and why.With features in various targeted commercial or specialinterest journals (e.g. facility management, child-minding,education, house/home magazines, landlord publicationsetc.) we've also instigated a regular security columnwhich is sent out to all regional newspapers and has beenpicked up by a large number of them, thereby helping theregional coverage of the association and its members.

And then to round off, just before writing this overview forthe new handbook we of course had MLA Expo - thepremier locksmithing show in the UK. And what a show itwas! There's an overview elsewhere in the handbook so Idon't want to steal too much thunder but suffice it to saythat it was by all accounts the best Expo yet! A massivethanks to all those involved in exhibiting, providing thetraining, helping out during the event and of course thosevisiting.

So to sum up it's been a hectic 12 months but we've got alot more to do and I look forward to working with thestaff, board, members and various industry partners onhelping progress the association and look after theindustry. With the planned apprenticeship frameworkdevelopment, new MLA database and website and ofcourse new and improved training courses we'vecertainly got plenty to be getting on with!

Yours Sincerely

Dr Steffan GeorgeDirector of Business Development,

MLA Group

The exam itself is split into 4 parts and includes a writtensection on locksmithing knowledge and 3 practical partswhich cover fitting, opening and cutting a key by hand.

Why do courses in a particular order?The MLAputs particular emphasis on providing high levelof training in the best fashion.

Well initial indications that Expo would be a "biggie" cameto fruition. Record pre-registrations for the event fedthrough into a significantly increased footfall. No doubthelped by the increased number of exhibitors, a seriousstep up in marketing of the event and a significant amountof training on offer, MLAExpo cemented its position as thenumber 1 Locksmiths Exhibition in the UK.

Visitors came from as far afield as China, New Zealandand the USA. It was also great to see a huge contingentattend from Ireland, highlighting the close relationship theMLA enjoys with the Associated Locksmith of Ireland.Sponsored by locksmithing tool specialist UAPTradelocks, Expo visitors had the opportunity to meetsuppliers, test products, discuss industry trends, chat withfellow locksmiths and take part in the training. Theatmosphere was really electric, with significant businessbeing done, contacts being made and a tangible sense ofenthusiasm about the industry. This year's expo wasparticularly positive for exhibitors, with a significantamount of business activity taking place over the full threedays and a great buzz in the exhibition hall. Many of thecommented on how it had been their best Expo yet."

Graham Jones, Managing Director of Multipoint Lockswho exhibited throughout the 2011 Expo: "Well, what canwe say about the MLA Expo, other than that we can't waitfor 2013. The exhibition far exceeded any targets we hadset in terms of both sales and contacts made. We've beentold by many that we were one of the busiest exhibitorsthere - and it certainly felt like that!

"The variety of exhibitors meant that there were visitorsfrom across the board from police forces and fire services,to general security engineers and day to day locksmiths.

The amount of business that was generated both at theexhibition and in the small number of working days sincehas been unbelievable, and we hope that there will beplenty more to come. We'd like to say a big thank you tothe team at the MLA for such a well-planned and thoughtout exhibition - we couldn't have asked for anythingmore..."

This year's Expo also saw a marked increase in the rangeand number of training workshops and advice sessionsavailable to visitors, with locksmiths signing up to expandtheir skills throughout the three days. Training has always been an integral part of the MLA andtherefore also MLA Expo. The event exists for the benefitof locksmiths, so having training available is a way ofensuring they get the most out of the show. The MLA iscommitted to promoting high standards throughout theindustry and it is important for the association to offertraining to its members. The training sessions also providegreat networking opportunities and the chance to shareexpertise. The training schedule this year was more variedthan ever before, looking at issues ranging from auto-locksmithing to access control, safes, UPVC and fireregulations as well as practical business training such ascredit control and marketing."

As well as taking part in training, visitors to the Expocould get actively involved in other ways too. ChrisPankhurst, Sales Director at Tradelocks was delightedwith the turnout at the Expo and explained howTradelocks got people engaged at its stand: "We've had agreat time at the MLAExpo, with lots of interest in the newtools we're showcasing, including a new letterbox tool andplug puller. We also got people involved by running an'electric pick gun' competition, where people raced each

MLA Expo 2012


other to release a lock; encouragingly even those who hadnever used one of these tools before succeeded. We're usedto trade shows being manic but this Expo took things ontoanother level."

Exhibitors across the board were keen to emphasise howimportant the MLA Expo is as a focal point for meetingwith customers. Paul Johnson, Commercial Manager ofAssa Abloy explained that the Expo presents a greatopportunity to speak with self-employed locksmiths whoit is often tricky to engage with face to face due to themobile nature of their work. Johnson commented on theimportance of reaching out to the wider market and thatevents such as the MLA expo are pivotal in achieving this.

Nick Hill from Burton Safes echoed this view, observingthat 'we're all here for the same thing - we're all in the sametrade and this is a great way to support each other andmeet with the customer base'.

Such positive responses highlight the fact that the MLAExpo is regarded as one of the highlights in the

locksmithing calendar and is a must-visit event forprofessionals from all over the world.

A substantial proportion of the profits made from the2011 MLA Expo will go towards the development of anationally recognised locksmithing qualification andapprenticeship framework for the locksmithingprofession. Working alongside the industry skills bodySkills for Security (SfS), the MLA has championed thedevelopment of National Occupational Standards (NOS)for the industry which were the first step of the projectand are currently being used as the basis for the next stepof the qualification and apprenticeship frameworkdevelopment.

The MLA runs regular events either on a national orregional basis so keep an eye on the website to find outwhat's happening and what industry events you could beattending.

This year the MLA has achieved exposure across ahuge range of media – from targeting important sectorssuch as facilities management, heritage, property andchildcare to further building homeowner awarenessthrough articles in glossy consumer magazines, there’sbeen a constant stream of activity to showcase thebenefits of hiring MLA members.

A major highlight was the announcement to the pressof the MLA’s new Heritage Locksmithing course; thiswas obviously of great interest to trade publications asheritage work requires such specialised skills and theappropriate training can be difficult to find.

Believed to be the first of its kind, the MLA HeritageLocksmithing course received extremely positivewrite-ups across the trade press. We were alsodelighted that this story found a wider appeal and wasfeatured in a number of heritage publications,including the National Trust’s ‘Views’ magazine.English Heritage were so impressed by the course thatthey sent an email recommending contacting the MLAfor details of heritage specialists to each and every oneof their property managers. The success of the firstcourse and interest in the subject has led to the MLArunning further Heritage Locksmithing courses.

Moving from the historic to the ultra-modern, wetargeted property managers of a very different sort ofpremises. The range of security issues facing facilitiesmanagers working for large companies can be mind-boggling. Fortunately the MLA were able to providesome clarity and advise on the multitude of optionsavailable to a facilities manager, who may be workingwith multiple locations, with the safety of hundreds ofemployees to consider.

We received an enthusiastic response from manyfacilities management publications, delighted that theMLA, representing its members, could offer an articlecontaining some much-needed guidance on the varietyof systems available and issues such as health andsafety. Coverage achieved included pieces appearingin Premises and Facilities Management as well asseveral articles in FM World.

Of course it’s not just in the world of business thatsecurity counts; it’s of prime concern to educationalestablishments too. The MLA’s PR team have beenhard at work identifying all those whose job it is to

safeguard our children’s security, from nurserymanagers and childminders through to school sitemanagers and caretakers. Spreading the word aboutthe value of the comprehensive advice an MLAmember can give, we’ve had articles placed in NurseryWorld, Childminding Magazine and Caretakers.netwith a piece to follow in Leadership Focus, themagazine of the National Association of Head teachers.

MLA members’ profile has also grown significantly inthe ‘home’ sector, both through coverage in glossymagazines such as Real Homes, Your Home and HouseBeautiful which brings the MLA and its members to theattention of a whole new market, but also through theintroduction of a regular column, sent to papers acrossthe UK to reach the audiences of our members.

The columns focused on different aspects of homesecurity, ranging from moving house to selecting aqualified locksmith and have been featured widelyacross over 30 regional media home sections.Appearing in publications including amongst manyothers: The Metro (London), The Journal (NewcastleUpon Tyne), The Edinburgh Evening News, WirralGlobe, Blackpool Gazette, Huddersfield DailyExaminer, Wakefield Express, Yorkshire Post, MeonValley News, The Gloucester Citizen, and the SouthWales Echo.

Home security is not just an issue for those who live inthe property they own, but also for tenants andlandlords alike. The MLA capitalised on the massiveproperty rental market to target both landlords andtenants, raising awareness of the services provided byMLA members through a huge range of articlesoffering security advice in publications such asResidential Property Investor, The Agreement andGSPC. We were even commissioned to produce awhole newsletter for Landlord Zone.

Another hugely important aspect of the MLA’s activitythis year has been the funding of the development of anationally recognised locksmithing qualification,working alongside Skills for Security. Through this theMLA reaffirmed its commitment to the professionaldevelopment of its members and to creating unifiedstandards across the industry as a whole. Massiveinterest across the trade media resulted in articleshighlighting the significance of this MLA-led initiativeappearing in Locks & Security News, Risk UK,

MLA PR review


Prosecure News Online, Info 4 Security, SecurityOracle and Security News Desk among others.

And finally, we come to the Expo. I’m sure we’ll allagree that this year’s Expo was one of the mostsuccessful yet, with excellent attendance levelsthroughout the weekend and highly positive feedbackfrom both exhibitors and visitors. We’ve also had anenthusiastic response from the press, with impressiveamounts of coverage across the trade press and onlineboth in anticipation of the Expo and in response to it.

Looking ahead, there’s lots of planned activity in thepipeline to continue to highlight the wide variety ofservices MLA members provide to new markets,including a focus on security for students and a driveto place features promoting MLA members in the

Careers and Business press. Watch this space forfurther news on how we’re spreading the word in theyear ahead.

HistorySold Secure was established in 1992 by Northumbria andEssex Police who combined 2 initiatives, Sold Secure andPartnership Against Car Theft (PACT) to form Sold Securewith the help and backing of the Home Office. Sold Secureis now administered by the Master LocksmithsAssociation, in its premises adjacent to the MLA’s HeadOffice just outside Daventry.

PurposeSold Secure provides test and assessment services ofeffective security products to commercial customers, theinsurance industry, the Home Office, the Police and thepublic and is a company dedicated to reducing the risk oftheft by the assessment of security products.

The scheme has close ties with a number of constabulariesand insurers who provide regular information regardingthe methods of theft and the tools utilised by criminals intheir area. This helps to maintain an up to date specificationand means security products can be assessed in the light ofthe risk they are likely to encounter when in use.

OrganisationSold Secure is made up of a small team of dedicated staff.Steve Warren is Lab Manager looking after operations forthe company as well as performing the majority of audit

testing and managing any external testers who arebrought in. Lesley Robertson, who is the Administrator,looks after all the paperwork and the accounts. SoldSecure also call on the services of Steffan George forbusiness development and general management as well asJustin Freeman, the MLA’s Technical Manager for extratechnical assistance such as writing new standards fortesting and signing off reports etc.

The company has its own board of directors who meet ona regular basis to ensure the running of the company isgoing according to plan. It’s important to note that thecompany is a completely separate entity to the MLA, withits own staff, own legal entity, own board, separateaccounts etc.

Testing, Assessment and Approval

Why Test?Security product manufacturers make various claims withregards to the security of their products, but what do theseclaims actually mean? By developing relevant testspecifications with the involvement of the relevantstakeholders (e.g. Police, Insurance, Industry Bodies etc),as well as adopting relevant BS/EN test norms whereappropriate, Sold Secure can test all products to thesestandards and provide the public with an understanding

Sold Secure


of how that product performs against the standard, as wellas against any competitor products.

One of the main drivers for product testing is insurancerecognition and recommendation. Many insurancecompanies understand the benefits of specifying SoldSecure products in reducing the likelihood of theft andthe subsequent claim and will actively encourage theircustomers to use the products by giving discounts onpolicies where Sold Secure products are used or in someinstances insisting that Sold Secure approved productsare used in order to provide cover at all. The police alsorecommend Sold Secure products with Crime ReductionOfficers particularly vocal in their recommendation andalways making a beeline for the Sold Secure stand at anyexhibition to get their latest copy of the Sold SecureApproved Products catalogue.

The Association of Chief Police Officers own accreditationcompany Secured by Design also recognize the benefits ofSold Secure testing and use the approval as part of theiraccreditation process, thereby pointing a number ofmanufacturers our way for the attack testing to give SBDconfirmation of the integrity of the product.

Manufacturers and suppliers can apply to have theirproducts approved by Sold Secure. Products which havebeen satisfactorily assessed may bear the Sold SecureQuality Mark. The tests are carried out to strict criteria setout in Attack Specifications drawn up in conjunction withinterested parties, such as insurers, police forces as well as

industry specific organisations such as the Caravan Clubfor example. It’s important to note that the interestedparties do not include manufacturers, which allows SoldSecure to be independent of any vested interests.

The testing is carried out in-house with a team ofapproved testers, all of whom are Master Locksmiths intheir own right or experts in their field. By using thishighly experienced team of testers it is possible not only toensure continuity but also to act as a “worse case” typescenario due to the significant product knowledge andattack methods knowledge held by the group. As well astesting to the Sold Secure standards, testing can also becarried out to a range of European Standards, such asEN14450 for safe testing for example. Also, some of theSold Secure specs refer to European norms such asEN12209 & EN1303.

Sold Secure differentiates itself from its competitors byhelping the manufacturers understand the testing involvedand how to improve their products. They always suggestthat when a customer has a new product they’re thinkingof getting approved they bring it for an initial consultationwhere they can evaluate the product and what categoryand level we feel it should be aimed at. We can also providesome up front consultancy on any areas of weakness wemay find, thereby saving the manufacturer what couldotherwise be a costly test. Whilst commercially Sold Securemay make more money by testing something itimmediately knows will fail, they quite rightly feel that itmakes far better long term business sense to build

22


relationships with our customers and help them improvetheir products and ensure they retain them as customers.

Approval CategoriesAs you will see from the information below there areseveral categories that Sold Secure test to and eachcategory uses one of three levels of resistance, Gold Silverand Bronze, excluding the caravan, tracker and lockcylinder categories which have an additional Diamondlevel of attack resistance.

The attack specifications vary for each category in thetypes of attack and tools used in the test. Higher valueproducts have much tougher tests than lower valueproducts where the attack is less likely to be planned or thethief well equipped. For example bicycle attacks arecarried out using lighter tools and no power drills as thetheft is more likely to be opportunistic rather thanplanned. Caravan security devices however will need towithstand attacks using drills and large pry bars, amongstother things as they are more likely to be planned andexecuted by more professional thieves due to the value ofthe item.

Motor Cycles & Motor ScootersAround 50,000 motorcycles are stolen in this country everyyear. Many of these are broken down for spares and lessthan a quarter are ever recovered. A very high percentageof those stolen are actually taken from outside theirowners’ homes. It may be interesting to note that a bikeparked in a busy main road may sport several securitydevices but when parked at home the bike may be leftunsecure.

Sold Secure has a single level of Motorcycle SecurityApproval (Gold) and two levels of Motor Scooter security(Gold & Silver). Using a toolkit based on insurance andpolice information, the motorcycle is proven safe from theaverage thief. There are a number of options for security athome and also when parked away from home.BicyclesSold Secure has developed a three tier security gradingsystem. The Gold rated locking devices offer the highestlevel of security. The next level down Silver offers acompromise between security and cost, whilst theBronze level typically offers defence against theopportunist thief. Thus the purchaser can choose thesystem which best meets his needs or the relevantinsurance requirements. Again there are a number ofoptions for mobile use and some solutions for the homeenvironment. A number of bicycles are stolen frominsecure garden sheds or garages and we have testedground anchors, shackles and security posts to help inthis area. Also see our new category for domesticbuildings.

CaravansRecent statistics show that over 5000 caravans are stolenevery year and very few are recovered. Indeed according toHome Office resources caravans stolen from the UK havebeen found as far away as New Zealand! Once again, SoldSecure approves locking systems using the tools that atypical thief would carry. There are three levels of securityapproval. The Silver level offers basic security, a costeffective product for the occasions when a caravan is storedin a good location. When a higher level of security isrequired, then the products approved to the Gold standard

23


are available. The Diamond level is the highest of all andoffers maximum protection. Ground anchors and securityposts are available for fixed security at the caravan’s mainstorage point. Tracking units are becoming more and morepopular for Caravans and whilst they are a passive system,monitoring location when stolen (rather than an activesystem preventing theft in the first place) Sold Secure havea test specification for these products.

Ground AnchorsOn many occasions, for maximum security, a simple lockis not enough. Unless your bike, motorbike, caravan, boat,trailer or motor mower is fastened down it may bepossible to steal it, lock and all! The answer to this is aground anchor. When installed in your garage, drive or carpark, these provide the ideal device for securing yourvehicles and other valuable outdoor equipment. Wherenecessary, use these with a Sold Secure Approved lock.

Security PostsAn ideal way of preventing your vehicle from being stolenfrom your drive or car park is the security post. These aretested to the normal Sold Secure criteria, making it difficultfor the criminal to bypass the security post. They can beeffective in securing several vehicles at one time. They canalso be used to protect your parking place!

CarsCrime statistics indicate that the average car thief wouldwish to spend no longer than 2½ minutes gaining entry toa vehicle and driving off. The Sold Secure attack testacknowledges this criteria and tests the product for a fullfive minutes. Thus any Car product bearing our seal ofapproval must improve your chances of finding your carwhere you left it. Such has been the success of this scheme;car manufacturers now build in security at the productionline stage.

Commercial VehiclesThe loss of a commercial vehicle is always made worse bythe theft of its contents and the disruption to yourbusiness. Sold Secure have approved a range of productsdesigned to protect the vehicle and its cargo.

Annual AuditsAs part of the Sold Secure Quality Mark products have tobe resubmitted every year for an Annual Audit. The auditis an important part of maintaining the security of theproducts approved under the various categories,particularly when components are bought in from outsidesources by the manufacturers. The Annual Audits canshow up to a 25 to 30% failure rate often due to a changein specification from an outside supplier, this can includeparts of a product that aren’t hardened properly or madefrom different materials to the original sample tested at theoutset, normally done to try and save cost. This providesan additional benefit to the company getting the testingdone of Sold Secure performing what could effectively bedescribed as conformity of production testing for them, an

essential item as customers may not have been informedof changes to products they are buying in.

Benefits to Locksmiths & RetailersThe main benefits to locksmiths lie in the ability to sellproducts that have been approved to standards that arealready familiar to and recognised by customers. TheCaravan Club has been very active in promoting SoldSecure products and most motorcyclists also recognise thevalue of an approved product

Website (www.soldsecure.com)Sold Secure has a relatively new website and it holds a fulllisting of all Approved Products which is updatedinstantly a product either achieves approval, oralternatively lapses. This offers a major advantage overmany other test houses where lists of approved productshave to be created and then uploaded to their websitemeaning that their lists can be anything up to 3 months outof date. The Sold Secure approved products list has adirect link to a brand new database which means that assoon as the product test file is updated the info willimmediately be on the website, effectively providing a“real time” Approved Product list.

The website allows everyone to see whether a product hasApproved Product status. Sometimes products are notresubmitted, in which case they may still be displaying theSold Secure logo on the packaging but no longer beapproved. It also means that if someone is selling aproduct as Sold Secure Approved then you can tellimmediately whether this claim is true. The importance ofthis has been proved recently with one insurer havingchecked to see if a particular product was approved andwhen it wasn’t going back to the member of the public tohighlight that the relevant discount was not available tohim as the product’s approval had lapsed.

On the website there is also a download area whereInternet users can download the Sold Secure catalogue,the MLA’s Guidelines for domestic security as well as aglossary of terms.

Information on these approved products is circulated bySold Secure to crime reduction officers, insurancecompanies, the media, the Home Office and the public,and is available free to those who request it. The newwebsite also highlights the MLA and suggests that MLAapproved companies are used for the supply and fit ofapproved products. This dove-tails nicely into the fact thatsome insurance companies stipulate that in certaininstances Sold Secure approved products have to be usedand fitted by an MLA locksmith. This has netted a coupleof MLA member’s jobs and goes to show the benefit ofSold Secure to the MLA.

If you’re interested in getting a product approved then e-mail Sold Secure on [email protected] or ring us on01327 264687.

Thirty years ago in 'the good olddays', the locksmith's shop was verymuch a 'brown overall' business oftencombining key-cutting and basiclocksmithing with hardware productsand the sale of paraffin. Today'sprofessional Master Locksmiths arefar removed from this outmodedstereotype and have a reputation forexpertise and professionalism. Thisdid not come easily and anyone whohas been in the business for a year ortwo, recognises that goodwill is 'hardwon and easily lost'. However, thereis one area where even the mostexperienced MLA member can easilyblunder. It is in the supply andinstallation of cash safes.

Let's refer back once more to thoseearlier times. In the 1970's insurancecompany's Senior Burglary Surveyorsruled the roost. They were involvedwith manu-facturers at every stage ofproduction, from drawing board to the finished article. Itwas the Senior Burglary Surveyor who decided the cashrating based on his technical know-how and the various in-house tests he had witnessed. As we entered the 1980's theinsurance industry began to change. There was far lessnew business and much keener competition amongstunderwriters. Economies had to be found so the BurglarySurveyor and Fire Surveyors were amalgamated.Specialists began to be replaced by 'composite' surveyorswith a much broader brief but far less in-depth knowledge.

To make the surveyor's life a little easier, the insuranceindustry called for standards for testing and rating safesto be introduced; something British safe makers stronglyresisted. Protests became even louder when we joined theEEC and the introduction of pan European standardswere discussed. They knew that if they were ratified itwould fling the doors wide open to foreign competition.With many European countries having cheaper labourand paying far less for their steel, they could see thewriting on the wall.

All their efforts were in vain and in 1997 EN1143-1, aEuropean standard for testing and rating cash safes wasformulated. In theory it was a great idea. A safe tested inSweden in accordance with EN1143-1 and rated Grade I

would provide exactly the same levelof protection as a similar safe tested inFrance, Germany, the UnitedKingdom or any other membercountry. At first all went well, but itwas not long before it becameobvious that not all test housesapplied the test procedures withequal vigour. As manufacturersbegan to design down to thestandards, price became king. Apolicyholder told by his/her insurerthat they required a Grade I safe inorder to obtain the required level ofcover simply shopped around for thecheapest Grade I they could find, inthe belief that they all must providethe same level of security.

Eventually insurers also recognisedthat not all test houses applied thesestandards with equal diligence andmatters became even more confusedwhen Eastern European countries

joined the Community and dozens of Internet companiesbegan selling poor quality products at knock-downprices. In Western Europe, where they were experiencingthe same problems, two organisations were formed tohelp restore confidence in standards; the European Fire &Security Group (EFSG) and the European CertificationBoard- Security (ECB.S).

Today, many leading British insurers require cash safes tobe tested by laboratories affiliated with EFSG or certifiedby ECB.S. These 'approved' products receive the fullrecommended insurance cover whilst the level of coverextended to safes tested and certified elsewhere by nonaffiliated laboratories is substantially reduced.

The problem is that it is difficult for the security supplierto know which products are acceptable for the full limitand which are not. They get little guidance frommanufacturers or suppliers who simply tell them theonus is on the buyer to make sure the safe they are beingsold is acceptable to their insurers. If their insurersubsequently rejects it or grants a lower limit, then it'stheir own fault. That doesn't seem to be a very helpful orprofessional stance. If you bought a car through aspecialist dealer who assured you it would do 70 miles tothe gallon and you later find out that it only does 20, you

Buyer beware

Mike Palmer


would not be best pleased to be told, "It's your own fault.It was up to you to check for yourself before you boughtit". When their insurer tells your customer the safe isunacceptable for the limit you advised, your credibilityand reputation flies out the window. Worse still, the onlyway to restore it may be to remove the safe and replace itwith a more acceptable model - at your expense.

So how can you avoid these pitfalls and be sure you aregiving correct advice to your customers? Firstly, alwaysensure that any lighter grade safe you sell has beensubmitted for testing by Sold Secure and rated as Gold,Silver or Bronze or tested in accordance with EN14450 (astandard for testing low grade 'safe cabinets' designedprimarily for domestic use) and graded level S1 for up to£2,000 cash cover and S2 for up to £4,000.

Heavier quality cash safes should be tested in accordancewith EN1143-1 the standard for testing and rating cashsafes with ratings from Grade 0 (£6,000) to Grade VI(£150,000). However, this on its own is insufficient. To beabsolutely certain they will receive the limit the customerrequires from their insurer, the test house must be amember of EFSG or the certificate issued by ECB.S.

But how will you know? The best way to obtain thisinformation is to refer to a current copy of the Safe Guidefrom the Association of Insurance Surveyors (available tomembers of the Master Locksmiths Association). It listshundreds of in production and out of production safes,giving recommended cash ratings for each model. It willindicate those safes liable to be down graded or where theclaimed grading has not been authenticated.

Secondly, look out for the AiS Approved Safe logo onliterature, websites and on the actual safes themselves.The precise purpose of this newly introduced scheme is tomake life easier for specifiers and suppliers.

Thirdly, purchase your safes from members of EurosafeUK, the trade association with over 25 membercompanies pledged to abide by a strict code of practice.They will be happy to steer you through the minefield ofinsurance requirements and standards. A list of membercompanies can be found at www.eurosafeuk.org.

One last cautionary note; unless you are veryexperienced, conversant with all relevant Health & Safetyrequirements and very well insured, don't be tempted todeliver and install heavier grade safes yourself. This isfraught with risk and best left to specialists.

Finally, if you are in any doubt about the acceptable cashrating for any cash safe whether it be in current productionor long gone, take advantage of the comprehensive freesafe identification service sponsored by A to Z SafeWarehouse.

The UK's leading lock makers and doormanufacturers, together with policesecurity professionals and the insurancesector, have given a warm welcome to aplanned new Kitemark scheme toaccompany the new security standard fordomestic lock cylinders.

The TS 007 standard has been developedby the Door & Hardware Federation andthe Glass & Glazing Federation withconsultation and support from leadingindustry associations and from Secured byDesign. It is designed to give assurance tohouseholders that cylinders and protectivefurniture that carry the Kitemark to TS 007will resist cylinder snapping, bumping and other forms ofcylinder attack.

The standard and the Kitemark certification is the industryresponse to growing concerns that an increasing numberof homes are under threat from burglars who learn lockattack techniques from the internet.

Said DHF chairman Bob Perry: "The BSI Kitemark is thecertification mark that has the highest consumerrecognition by far, particularly when it covers domesticsecurity. So, this is a most important step forward inhelping domestic householders ensure their homes aresafe against the latest methods of lock attack."

The new TS 007 standard has been modelled on thecylinder security requirements of the long established PAS24 standard, the security "gold standard" for domesticdoors that come prefitted with security locking systems.The new standard will require the use of a Kitemarksymbol and star ratings that range from one to three stars.

The certification can be achieved by either a "supercylinder" (three stars) that successfully resists snap attack,or a combination of a cylinder (one star) and security doorfurniture (two stars) that provides the same degrees ofresistance against attack.

"It's important to stress that the new standard concentrateson setting strict levels of performance - it does not dictatehow lock suppliers and manufacturers meet thosestandards," Bob Perry pointed out. "So, if a manufacturer

or supplier can meet the TS 007 standardby uprating the cylinder alone, then that'sfine. If the solution to meeting the standardis by utilising a combination of upratedcylinder and security door furniture, that'sequally acceptable. Where differentsolutions offering similar performance arepossible, it is up to the market to decidebetween them.

"We take the view that the continualdevelopment of burglary techniques,fuelled by the amount of informationdisseminated on the internet, means weshould leave it to manufacturers to offer avariety of security solutions should one

particular security solution be compromised."

The DHF, GGF and other stakeholders including Securedby Design, will be promoting the new TS 007 standard inthe second quarter of 2011. An information campaign willbe directed to door manufacturers and installers, publicsector bodies, police and security specialists at the sametime. An awareness campaign aimed at the consumer, runin conjunction with Secured by Design and BSI, will followas products meeting the new standard become availableon the market.

Jon Cole, national operations manager of ACPO Securedby Design said: "The introduction of the TS 007 Kitemarkcertification is a significant step forward in improvingdomestic security. We are greatly encouraged by theunprecedented widespread support the standard isreceiving from the lock industry."

And Giles Willson, director of technical affairs at the Glass& Glazing Federation, said: "The basis of the new TS 007standard using a Kitemark and a star rating has comeabout from a number of industry meetings, including ameeting comprising all the current lock and cylinderKitemark holders.

It's an example of how the UK doormakers, glass andglazing specialists, lock makers, security professionals andpolice are working together to produce a security standardthat has real meaning and will be recognised andacknowledged by the general public and professionalsalike."

New Kitemark standard for cylinder lock security

Since 2009 Skills for Security has been working with theMLA and the wider locksmithing community to produceNational Occupational Standards for the sector and thenuse them to develop a nationally-recognised qualificationand apprenticeship framework. The aim is to ensure thatall locksmiths throughout the UK are trained to the samehigh standard that they and their customers will value andto provide an apprenticeship route into the industry.

We asked a group of locksmiths with differentbackgrounds and experience how they do their job andthen, after much discussion in meetings and throughemail consultation, invited the wider community oflocksmiths to have their say on the draft NationalOccupational Standards (NOS). Their comments wereincorporated into the final version.

National Occupational Standards

● describe the knowledge and skills required to performwork to the nationally agreed standard for eachspecialism

● are determined by experts currently working in thefield to reflect up-to-date working practices andprovide an accurate benchmark

● are a free resource used by awarding organisations todesign qualifications and also by employers to writejob descriptions and adverts, design trainingprogrammes and assess the skills of their employees.

The National Occupational Standards for Locksmithingare now available for you to download at:

www.skillsforsecurity.org.ukindex.php/help/35/2

In May 2011 an advisory working group was set up withMLA funding to look at the development of a nationallyrecognised qualification structure and locksmiths wereinvited to take part through the trade press. The resultingdraft document was put out for wider consultation andthe final version is available at:

www.skillsforsecurity.org.uk/index.php/help/41

Locksmiths were also asked to take part in a wider surveyin July to assess the need for a national qualification andan apprenticeship. The results of this can be viewed at:

www.skillsforsecurity.org.uk/index.php/help/35/39

We are currently working with four Awarding Organ-isations on development of the apprenticeship frameworkand a Steering Group of locksmiths will meet in January2012 to take this next stage forward.

We would like to thank all the locksmiths who have giventheir time to join the advisory working groups or takenpart in the consultations and, in particular, the MLA boardand members who have offered the leadership andsupport that have been essential to the success of theproject to date.

Skills for Security— working with the MLA


The Launch of the Fire Door Inspection Scheme will help MLA members and their clients — Gary Amer, Chief Executive, Guild of Architectural Ironmongers

30

The UK's new Fire Door InspectionScheme (FDIS) is the first such scheme inEurope, designed to transform people'sknowledge and understanding about thecritical purpose and function of fire doors.

Developed and delivered by the BWF-CERTIFIRE Scheme and the Guild ofArchitectural Ironmongers (GAI), itsultimate purpose is to help improve safetyand save lives through creating a newpool of expertise and competence to helpthose with legal responsibilities under theRegulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order -commonly known as the RRO. It providesa vital new resource to help the'Responsible Person' complete fire riskassessments for the premises theymanage. It also raises awareness of defective fire doorsand the potentially tragic consequences of leaving theseunchecked.

The FDIS provides an online learning centre leading to adiploma in fire doors (DipFD), and a route to become acertificated fire door inspector (CertFDI). Professionalsinvolved in fire doors, facilities management, buildingmaintenance and other aspects of health and safety will allbenefit from the scheme's education and qualificationssupport, and will have their competence independentlyverified.

As MLA members know every building owner, with theexception of domestic householders, is required by law toundertake a fire risk assessment. It should identify firehazards, those people at risk, mitigation measures andaction to be taken, information and training needs and howthe assessment will be kept under review. If the building

owner or landlord has five or moreemployees, the fire risk assessment mustbe recorded in writing. The assessmentshould include the inspection of fire doorsand all their components necessary toenable the door perform in the event of afire. Essential Ironmongery such ashinges, closers, locks and latches shouldbe CE marked and CERTIFIRE Approvedand are vital to the fire resistanceperformance of the door assembly.

Under the RRO, it is the duty of the'Responsible Person' to ensure that thefire-risk assessment is carried out. Whilethey can appoint some other competentperson to do the actual assessment, theyare still responsible in law.

However, until the introduction of the FDIS it has beendifficult for them to confirm whether the responsibleperson is sufficiently competent to check fire doors and allthe components fitted to them in their buildings.

Now they can be confident that FDIS certificated inspectorshave had their knowledge thoroughly tested. Firstly, theywill have been awarded a Diploma in Fire Doors bysuccessfully working through a comprehensive educationpackage that covers a range of topics including seals,timber and metal doors, ironmongery and glazing. Theywill have also been asessed by the scheme's independentcertification body, EXOVA Warringtonfire, which willapprove certification only when candidates havedemonstrated in real life work situations that they have in-depth knowledge in inspecting fire doors, identifying anyweaknesses and making informative and useful reports onthe current situation and any remedial actions that must be

Gary Amer


taken both to stay within the law and, more importantly,optimise safety for the buildings' occupants.

A vital part of fire doors can be locks so MLA membersmay want to consider becoming certificated fire doorinspectors to demonstrate to their clients that they havethe competence to fit locks to fire doors withoutjeopardising safety in the event of a fire.

Alternatively members can use the FDIS databaseavailable through the FDIS website to find a certificatedinspector to help your clients undertake risk assessmentsor provide an independent review of their own work.

The importance of fire doors will continue to be promotedstrongly by the FDIS from its launch date onwards. We

must get across to building owners, facilities managersand others their role in the 'circle of responsibility' and thehorrific consequences if they do not get it right.

The fatal fire at the Penhallow Hotel in Newquay in 2007is still very fresh in the industry's memory. The tragic fire,described as the worst hotel fire in nearly 40 years,resulted in the loss of three lives and prompted a BBC TV'Inside Out' programme into fire safety in hotels. We donot want to see a repeat of those problems, and yoursupport for the Fire Door Inspection Scheme will help tosave lives.

More information on the scheme is available at www.fdis.co.uk or by calling 0844 801 1518

At any given time there are approximately 30,000standards within the UK and many more Europeanstandards being used covering a wide range of productsand services. Standards are under constant review tomake sure they are relevant and do not contradict eachother. Standards provide the test criteria forindependent test houses (such as Sold Secure) to accreditproducts and confirm they have been manufactured to aminimum requirement. The following overview is abreakdown of locksmith related standards (notexclusively) that people working within the industryshould at least be aware of and ideally know whatstandards apply and when.

BS 3621 2007 + A1 2009 Title: Thief Resistant Lock Assembly. Key EgressThe original lock standard first drafted in the 1960’s andstill the base for all of the lock standards that are crossreferenced in it. 3621 was intended for 5 lever morticelocks fitted to wooden doors and is intended to be used ondomestic properties. The key-key application of thislocking device makes it unsuitable for properties withsingle exits. The latest version was amended in late 2009 tosatisfy legal issues within the wording of the document.The UK was able to retain the following BS standardsbecause of the GVA that was not included in BS EN 12209and BS EN 1303 however BS 3621 was bought into linewith 12209 and 1303 in 2004.

BS 8621 2007 + A1 2009Title: Thief Resistant Lock Assembly. Keyless EgressIntroduced in 2004, 8621 has the same test criteria as 3621but is intended for use on locking devices that require nokey to achieve egress. Single exit and multiple occupancydwellings require keyless egress as per fire regulations.The 2009 amendments were as per 3621.

BS 10621 2007 +A1 2009Title: Thief Resistant Lock Assembly. Dual ModeIntroduced in 2007, 10621 also has the same test criteria as3621 and is a hybrid of the two previous standards. 10621locks should not be used in single exit dwellings becauseof the entrapment possibilities. Amendments made in3621 and 8621 in 2009 are mirrored here.

PAS 24 2007 + A1 2009Title: Enhanced Security Performance Requirements for Door Assemblies.Adapted with input from Secure by Design, PAS 24 isintended to provide the minimum requirements for whole

door sets in new build dwellings. PAS 24 takes intoconsideration all aspects of a door including fixings andhinges etc. The lock requirements cross reference to 3621,8621 etc. PAS 24 is being rewritten to include BS 7950 earlyin 2012.

TS 621 2011Title: Thief Resistant Electromechanically Operated LockAssembliesA technical specification that describes performancerequirements for single or multipoint thief resistantelectromechanical lock assemblies including the lockinterface, striking plate, fixing screws, fitting instructionsand where appropriate, cylinders and protective furniture.

BS EN 1125:2008Title: Building Hardware. Panic Exit Devices Operated by aHorizontal Bar, for use on Escape Routes. Requirements andTest MethodsExperience relating to escape from buildings and generalsafety have made it desirable that doors at exits in publicbuildings, places of entertainment, shops etc., should befitted with panic devices operated by a horizontal bar. Theemphasis for products covered by this standard is on safeexit rather than security.

BS EN 179: 2008Title: Building Hardware. Emergency Exit Devices Operatedby a Lever Handle or Push Pad, for use on Escape Routes.Requirements and Test MethodsThis standard covers devices to be used in emergencysituations where people are familiar with the emergencyexit and its hardware and therefore a panic situation ismost unlikely to develop. Lever handle operated escapemortice locks or push pads may therefore be used.

BS EN 12320: 2001Title: Building Hardware, Padlocks and Padlock Fittings.This European standard specifies performance require-ments and describes test methods for strength, security,functions and corrosion of padlocks and padlock fittingsused in building applications, but excluding cables andchains.

Requirements which relate to security are classified in sixgrades, based on performance tests that simulate attack.Human intervention, durability, manipulation andpicking tests are not included in this standard.

BS EN 14450:2005Title: Secure storage units. Requirements, classification andmethods of test for resistance to burglary.

A significant extension to the BS 3621 Kitemark securityspecification marks a major step forward in enhancedhome security, said the Door & Hardware Federation(DHF).

The Kitemark has been extended to cover both multipointlocks and key-free electro-mechanical locks now that thenew standards - PAS 3621:2011 and DHF TS 621:2011 - havebeen published.

The standards programme has been driven forward by theDHF, which represents all the UK’s leading lock makers.The federation pointed out that the BS 3621 family ofKitemark standards for singlepoint locks has long been the“gold standard” for domestic door lock security.

The publication of the new thief-resistant lock standardsmeans that locksmiths, police crime prevention officersand security specialists can recommend locks to 3621Kitemark performance levels for all types of domesticdoor locks, whether single point, multipoint or electro-mechanical.

Said DHF executive chairman Bob Perry: “The BS 3621Kitemark has been recognised as the top securitybenchmark for singlepoint locks by the police, insurancecompanies and security specialists for the past 40 years.

“But times move on, and many homes now have PVCu orcomposite external doors and patio doors with multipointlocks. Increasingly, householders are looking for ‘smart’key-free locks for their homes.

“We recognised the importance of developing standardsfor these types of lock that offer the same securityperformance levels as BS 3621 does for singlepoint locks.The end result is that an extremely high level of domesticsecurity can now be offered by lockmakers, regardless ofthe type of lock that is fitted to external doors.”

The PAS 3621 standard has been prepared by BSI andsponsored by the DHF, Yale, Era (part of Grouphomesafe)and Secured by Design, the police-managed crimeprevention initiative.

It applies to all types of multipoint locks. PAS 3621 refers tolocks that can be operated from both sides of the door. PAS8621 refers to locks where the door can be locked by the keyfrom the outside only, but always can be opened from theinside. PAS 10621 refers to dual mode lock types that offerthe so-called “going on holiday” option of disablingkeyless egress from the outside.

This PAS 3621 family of standards offers the same level ofsecurity performance as the BS 3621 family of standardsand the same resistance to methods of cylinder attack suchas bumping, snapping, picking and drilling.

The DHF TS 621 is a Technical Specification covering alltypes of smart or key-free locks operated by remote fobs orother keyless entry methods such as keypads. It offers thesame level of security performance as the BS 3621 family ofstandards. In addition, there is no loss of security protectionif voltage drops or electricity wires are cut, and resists otherforms of electronic attack techniques.

DHF extends BS 3621 Kitemark standard todomestic multipoint and key-free locks

INTRODUCTION MLA Approved Companies’ management and staffshould provide products and services with skill andintegrity. They should give all end-users the bene.t of theirexperience in all aspects of security products and theirapplications.

There are five main areas of locksmithing services and thefollowing codes are intended to clearly state a company’sobligation to identify and interpret the requirements of thecustomer and to provide a fair and honest service to meetthose requirements.

The codes also highlight speci.c exceptions that can occurdue to the technical nature of some aspects of locksmithingand it is considered by the MLA to be fair that customersare made aware of these exceptions.

It is essential that the customer understands that theservice or product does meet with their requirements andthat they are aware of the costs or charges, either in writingor verbally and that they are also aware (if applicable) ofthe likelihood of any additional costs.

Certain lock and key systems are protected by law andreplacement or extra keys will not be duplicated withoutthe correct authorisation procedure. The company isobliged to operate these procedures to comply with lawand in the best public interests.

INSTALLATIONS MLAApproved Companies will be inspected periodicallyto stringent standards. Companies are dedicated toprovide skilled and accurate workmanship, and arepositively encouraged to maintain standards in Training,Equipment and Best Practices.

All companies must be properly insured to carry outsecurity installations on, or to, a customer’s premises.

Exceptions will occur if any alteration, amendment,removal or reinstallation is attempted by any persons

MLA Code of Practice


other than the original installing company. This alsoapplies if any undue wear and tear, abuse or act ofvandalism is apparent.

If product failure or faulty workmanship causes a Lock-Out the company may reserve the right to ascertain thecause and carry out any appropriate recti.cation, also tomake charges where applicable, having .rst advised thecustomer. Liability is limited to replacement value only ofthe same or similar equivalent product and in all caseslimited to the guarantee periods.

VOLUNTARY CODE OF PRACTICE FOR CUTTING VEHICLE KEYS This code suggests that you ask the customer to .ll in theappropriate form and prove their identity under thefollowing circumstances:

1. If a customer produces a vehicle part, for example - adoor lock, petrol cap or ignition barrel.

2. If a customer provides a key number.

Customers should be asked to fill in the form and proveidentity before you cut the key or order the key from asupplier.

The form can also be used in the case of key duplicationwhen the member is uncertain that the customer is therightful owner of the car.

If a member has regular customers that produce parts tocut keys for, it is recommended that the member has a briefrecord showing the date each key was cut and theregistration number of the car.

It is the company’s responsibility to get a form completedby the customer even if a key is ordered from one of theservice providers; they will assume you have completedthe formalities.

INTRODUCTION

Theft from domestic property causes major problems for theInsurance industry and for specifiers of security productswho might not be familiar with the industries involved. Thereasons for these guidelines are:

the Insurers possible requirement on a policy holder tomaintain a minimum level of security to protect theirpremises, to use it when the premises are unattended or inpart when they are occupied.

the general obligation of householders to take reasonablesecurity precautions for their own good.

to provide easily understood information for the use of thosenot familiar with the Security or Insurance industries.

These guidelines are not intended to be applied to newconstruction or major refurbishment. For these applicationsBritish Standards BS 7950:1997 with Amendment 3,Specification for enhanced security performance ofcasement and tilt/turn windows for domestic applicationsand PAS 24:2007+A1:2009 Enhanced security performancerequirements for door assemblies, Single leaf, externaldoor assemblies to dwellings apply. These specifications arebased on complete doorsets and window assemblies i.e. thedoor or window, including frame, hinges, locks, and fixingsas a whole unit. The specifier is recommended to obtaindoors and windows certified to these specifications.

Further guidance is given in BS 8220-1: Guide for security ofbuildings against crime – Part 1:2000 - Dwellings

Currently European specifications EN 1627-1630 also exist forthe security of doors, windows and shutters. Productscertified to the appropriate grades of these specifications areequally suitable.

These Guidelines assume that occupants are all able bodied.For users with disabilities, seek professional guidance beforeany installation.

Every attempt is made in these guidelines to be as practical aspossible with recommendation or the specification ofproducts, but there will always be occasions wherealternatives will need to be sought because of the nature of aparticular design, size or other feature of a door or windowto be secured. In these circumstances the advice of a specialistin this field should be taken. A member of the Trade Divisionof The Master Locksmiths Association (denoted as ‘“MLAapproved company” and accompanied by the MLAregistration number) should be contacted for such advicewhich should then be checked with the Insurers whereapplicable.

To comply with the requirements of most Insurers for thiefresistant lock assemblies that necessitate the use of a key foregress, it is generally accepted that locks used on traditionalexternal timber doors are certified to BS 3621:2007+A1:2009Thief resistant lock assemblies – Keyed egress. Thisindicates that the lock is part of an on-going test and auditprogramme to show it meets the requirements.

The MLA recommends that locks conforming to the latestversion of any standard are to be used, however the MLAalso recognises that insurers will on occasion accept locks,already installed that conform to earlier versions.

Where there is a requirement for means of escape (from fire)from the inside without the use of a key while maintainingsecurity from the outside, lock assemblies to BS 8621:2007+A1:2009 Thief resistant lock assemblies –Keyless egress should be installed.

Certifying to BS 8621 commenced in April 2005 and lockassemblies certified as complying with this Standard arelisted within the links in Appendix C.

The introduction of new materials (e.g. Aluminium, PVC-Uand Composite Materials) and designs used in theconstruction of doors and windows can make single pointlocking inadequate. The locks designed for these types ofdoor are usually multi-point and therefore cannot be tested toBS 3621, BS 8621 or BS 10621. PAS 3621, PAS 8621 and PAS10621 were published in 2011 and will provide minimumrequirements for multi-point locks to be tested to. Locksproduced prior to this date should have a minimum of threelocking points and use a cylinder that meets the minimumrequirement stated in 3 (b).

Nothing in this document or related documents shall implythat the installation of any security device will preventunauthorised entry to a premise or that by following theseguidelines insurers are obliged to issue insurance cover.

Note: These Guidelines give a general description of security fordomestic buildings. Neither the guidelines nor the list guaranteesthat these methods are suitable for specific applications. It is theresponsibility of the equipment supplier and/or equipmentpurchaser to ensure that any system is suitable for its particularapplication and that it complies with all legislation, standards,codes of practice or any other requirement.

Every effort has been made to ensure the contents of theseGuidelines are accurate, however the Master LocksmithsAssociation does not accept any responsibility for loss arising fromdecisions based upon them.

MLA Guidelines for minimumsecurity for domestic property

40


GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS

When considering the matter of minimum securityrequirements and the interpretation of these guidelines, usersof these guidelines should be mindful of a number of factors:

(a) The adequacy of the door or window, frame thickness andthe material quality together with the fixings of the frames tothe surrounding structure might impact on the level ofsecurity provided.

(b) A degree of flexibility when imposing securityrequirements might, on occasions be necessary. Often, due tothe nature of the door or window construction, or thematerial from which it is constructed, it might require the useof locks or locking devices in situations other than that forwhich they were intended. In such circumstances the adviceof a Trade member of the Master Locksmiths Associationshould be sought, and written confirmation of their proposalsobtained from any interested insurer.

(c) If improvements are required to the security ofaluminium, PVC-U or composite material doors or windowsit is stressed that this work should be undertaken byprofessionals. Again advice must be sought from anApproved Company Member of the Master LocksmithsAssociation who has experience in this type of work. Careshould be taken not to breach manufacturers’ warranties thatmight still apply.

(d) It must also be appreciated that some locks not certifiedto BS 3621 have in the past and could in the future beaccepted by Insurers. Where this is the case, writtenconfirmation by the Insurers of their acceptance of theproduct for its intended use should be obtained by the end-user. This recommendation also applies with theintroduction of lock assemblies under BS 8621 and BS 10621.

(e) Insurers and specifiers should be mindful of possibleconflict between occupier safety and security when theproperty is occupied. Careful consideration must be given tothe means of escape in the event of fire before specifying thatlocks should be engaged and the keys removed (using BS3621:2007+A1:2009 specification) before retiring for the night.Keys should be kept within easy reach of the occupant, butout of reach of an intruder. If in doubt, consult any interested insurer and the local FirePrevention Officer for guidance.

(f) External doors that are deemed to be used as an exit in caseof an emergency should be locked in the manner specified forthe final exit door, with the addition of a nightlatch that canbe opened from the inside without the use of a key for usewhen the property is occupied. Where locks to BS8621:2007+A1:2009 are fitted, egress will be facilitated fromthe inside by the presence of the thumb turn.

(g) In blocks of flats and other buildings of multipleoccupancy, the means of escape in the event of fire is animportant consideration, particularly where the entrancedoor to the individual flat is the only means of escape. Theuse of Escape Locks that can be opened from the inside by asingle action without the use of a key (but still retain theirsecurity from outside as described in BS 8621) is acceptable toInsurers subject to written confirmation. This type of lock willnormally meet the requirements of the Building Regulations.

(h) New products may become available that conform to testprocedures for security products, and carry the appropriatecertification mark. When these are accepted by theorganisations supporting these guidelines, and wheresuitable for the protection of a particular risk, their useshould be encouraged.

(i) When making recommendations for the fitting of securityitems, consideration must be given to the type of riskinvolved relevant to the location of the premises. It will benecessary to increase the number of locks and fittings todoors and windows in high-risk areas. Advice should besought from the local Crime Prevention Design Adviser,Architectural Liaison Officer, any interested insurer involvedor an Approved Company Member of the Master LocksmithsAssociation.

(j) A list of Approved Company Members of the MasterLocksmiths Association, recognisable by the logo “MLAApproved Company” is available from the MasterLocksmiths Association. This list is also reproduced andupdated on our website www.locksmiths.co.uk

MINIMUM SECURITY REQUIREMENTS

(a) Locks currently available certified to British Standard BS3621, BS 8621 or BS 10621 should bear the standard numberand the mark of the certification agency. These are listed inthe web links in Appendix C. Such locks may be available inrim or mortice fixing. Locks for PVC-U and composite doors(when multi-point) should meet the minimum requirementset out in PAS 3621, PAS 8621 and PAS 10621 published in2011. Locks produced prior to this date should have at leastthree locking points and be combined with a cylinder thatmeets the requirements of 3(b). Locks that have been part ofa PAS 24 door test are also acceptable. Written agreement forthe acceptance of such locks should be obtained from theinsurer by the policyholder.

(b) Lock cylinders installed before the implementation ofthese guidelines (November 1999) should have a minimum offive pins and an anti-drill insert. Thereafter, as a minimumrequirement the cylinder shall meet the requirements of BSEN 1303:1998 Clause 6.7 Security Grade 4 (Table 10) or BS EN1303:2005. Clause 6.8 Key related security Grade 5 (Table 9)and Clause 6.9 Attack resistance Grade 2 (Table 10). Technicalspecifications SS 312 and TS 007 were published in 2010 and2011 respectively and are to be used when doors are at risk ofcylinder attack and may be a requirement by someauthorities.

(c) Where any cylinder operated lock is used, the outsidecylinder shall not protrude more than 3 mm from the face ofthe door or the lock furniture (handle plate or cylinder rose)where fitted. Lock furniture should be of the ‘bolt through’type with the fixings being secured from the internal sideonly. Lock furniture should comply with BS EN 1906 Leverhandles and knob furniture – Requirements and testmethods – Annex A: Requirements for security lock furniturefor use on burglary resistant doors – Grade 1 unless certifiedas a component of a door assembly satisfactorily tested toPAS 24. Lock furniture may consist of separate components oflever/knob handles on roses and cylinder roses or compositebackplates. Where cylinder roses are fitted, these must

41


provide the cylinder protection as required under BS 3621, BS8621 or BS 10621.

(d) A limited range of other door locks, and most types oflockable bolt or window locks, are likely to be acceptable toinsurers for the purpose of securing doors and windows. Aproposed RISCAuthority guidance document (due to beissued in 2012) on Minimum Security Standards for DomesticProperties will provide full details. This will be available fordownload from www.riscauthority.co.uk

HINGED DOOR SECURITY

The type of lock and the position to which it is fitted on thedoor is dictated by the design of the door. It is therefore notpossible to make specific recommendations regarding thefixing positions of additional security devices, as this will bedetermined by the position of the original fittings on thedoor. The height at which the lock is fitted might also bedetermined by the level at which the user is standing whenlocking or unlocking the door, e.g. one or two steps below thedoor entry level.

For specific guidance reference should be made to BS 8220Guide for security of buildings against crime – Part 1:200Dwellings. However, the following is offered as a generalguide:

Additional Mortice Deadlocks

Where the lock to be fitted is of the mortice type, theminimum thickness of the door to which it is being fittedmust be 44 mm. The lock should be fitted approximatelymidway between the existing lock and the top or bottom ofthe door depending on which has the greatest unsecureddistance, avoiding any cross rail or glazing bar joints.

Additional Mortice or Rim Security Bolts (Single Doors)

To be fitted horizontally (where possible) approximatelymidway between the top lock and the top of the door and thebottom lock and the bottom of the door.

Where a single lock conforming to the requirements of theinsurance company is fitted, the additional bolts should befitted approximately midway between it and the top and thebottom of the door.

Where bolts are fitted vertically they should be between 50mm and 100 mm from the edge of the door, avoiding anyjoints.

For greater security on emergency or final exit doors, morticebolts, preferably knob operated for fire safety reasons, arerecommended in preference to surface mounted bolts. Wheredoors do not form part of an escape route, loose key morticebolts are suitable

Additional Mortice or Rim Security Bolts (Double Doors)

To be fitted vertically to the top and bottom of the doorsbetween 50 mm and 100 mm from the front of the rebatededge of the door, avoiding any joints. It could be necessary tofit security bolts to the top and bottom of the first closing leaf

only, if the doors are of substantial construction.For greater security on emergency or final exit doors, morticebolts, preferably knob operated for fire safety reasons, arerecommended in preference to surface mounted bolts on thefirst opening leaf, the first closing leaf being secured by loosekey bolts. Where doors do not form part of an escape routeloose key mortice bolts are suitable for both leaves.

Hinge Bolts and Security Hinges

Hinge bolts shall be fitted to all outward opening doors at aposition of approximately a quarter of the door height fromthe top and bottom of the door, but not within 150 mm of thetop or bottom hinges.

Hinges for use on burglar-resistant doors should complywith BS EN 1935:2002 Annex C. These may comprise eithersuch a design that the hinge pin can only be removed whenthe door is open, or alternatively, suitable composite securityhinges incorporating hinge bolts within the hinge flap thatenable the hinge to withstand shear loads should beconsidered.

Letter plates

Letter plates should be located with the aperture at least 400mm away from any locks to stop access to the locking systemthrough the aperture. The letter plate aperture should be inaccordance with the requirements of BS EN 13724: Postalservices- Apertures of private letter boxes and letter plates– Requirements and test methods Type 4 size 2 - 230 – 280mm wide x 30 – 40 mm high. If these criteria cannot beachieved, additional measures might be needed to preventaccess to door locks through the letter plate, such as theaddition of internal security flaps or letter cages/internalpostal boxes. Letter plates should be fitted horizontally at aheight between 700 mm and 1700 mm measured fromdelivery floor level

Where the sole means of internally locking a door is hand(not key) operated, then it is recommended that the letterplate be omitted from the door. In this instance, alternativemeans for mail delivery shall be provided such as an externalpostal box complying with types 1, 2 or 3 of BS EN13724:2002, in which case the aperture size will varyaccording to the dimensions of the postal box.

Stable Doors

Both halves of stable doors must be treated as separate doors.

WINDOW LOCKS

Where windows are not required to be opened, they may bescrewed permanently shut. Security screws shall be usedwhere this is to be done from the outside, and the headscountersunk and plugged.

The security of all ground floor and all accessible windowswhich are not considered as means of escape (e.g. from a flatroof) shall be considered. Openable windows that are over600 mm high or wide should be fitted with a multi-pointlocking system or two window locks with removable keys.Sashes less than 600 mm need only be fitted with a single

42


lock.

Where a lock is to be fitted to a window care must be taken toensure that the material to which the lock is fitted does notbecome weakened by fitting it too close to existing fittings.

Where a window is required for emergency egress then itshall not be fitted with any type of key lockable system. Inthis instance the window should be fitted with laminatedglass.

Louvre windowsUrgent consideration should be given to replacing louvrewindows as it is difficult to achieve adequate security. If thisis not possible, then all panes of glass (in louvre windows)should be securely fixed, with suitable adhesive, into theirbrackets or suitable grilles, bars, or shutters fitted. Louvrewindows should not be installed in vulnerable locations. Theuse of plastic frame materials is not acceptable for a securityapplication

Casement Windows

Where the casement window opening exceeds 600 mm, twolocks are required. For side-hung casements windowsover 600 mm high the additional locks should be fittedapproximately quarter of the height from the top and bottomof the casement window. For top-or bottom-hung fanlights inexcess of 600 mm wide, the locks should be fittedapproximately one quarter of the width of the openingfanlight from either side of the sash.

Tilt/Turn Windows

Additional locks should be fitted to the bottom rail at theleading edge for security and also to prevent the accidentalopening of the window in the side hung mode.

Vertical Sliding Sash Windows

Where the window opening exceeds 600 mm, the locksshould be fitted on the meeting rail of the bottom sash, atapproximately one quarter of the width, or on the verticalframe either side of the upper sash, directly above themeeting rail of the bottom sash.

Where there is a requirement for ventilation when thepremises are occupied, vertical sliding sash windows can beprovided with restricting devices suitably placed to providea ventilation position, to allow them to be opened amaximum of 100 mm and remain secure. This is notrecommended when the premises are unoccupied. Thewindow should then be secured in the fully closed position.

SLIDING DOORS AND WINDOWS

All sliding doors and windows should be fitted with anti-liftdevices to prevent them being removed from their tracks.Care should be taken to ensure such devices are fitted

appropriately so that they do not to go inside the section ofthe frame when the door/window is closed. Some slidingdoor locks have an in-built facility to prevent the door beinglifted, e.g. swing hook bolts which rotate upwards to engage.

Additional locks fitted to sliding doors and windows shouldbe fitted in such a manner as to ensure any force applied toopen the door acts against the lock fixing screws.

Wherever possible, additional locks should be fitted to thetop and bottom of the interlock of sliding doors andwindows. However, there are some designs, which make thisimpractical.Sliding doors/windows should not be secured in theventilation position when the premises are unoccupied.

UP-AND-OVER DOORS

Work on improving the security of up-and-over doors shouldbe undertaken by professionals who have experience in thistype of work.

There are security locking products available for this type ofdoor and the advice of a professional (MLA Trade Member)should be obtained prior to commencing improvements.

FRAME FIXING

It could be necessary in some instances to improve thestrength of the fixings holding door or window frames to thefabric of the building. Due to the presence of pre-castconcrete, steel lintels or other construction details, it mightnot be possible to achieve the desired additional fixings to thehead or sill of the frame. The type of fixings used will bedetermined by the material to be fixed and the material towhich it is to be fixed, however frame-fixing screws and boltsare available for this purpose.

The following dimensions for the positions of additionalfixings are offered as a guide.

Corner Fixings

Additional fixings made between l50 mm and 250 mmvertically and horizontally from the internal corners of theframe to be fixed.

Vertical and Horizontal Fixings

Additional fixings made at approximately 600 mm centresbetween the corner fixings of the frame to be fixed.

For greater detail of improved fixings, reference should bemade to BS 8213: Part 4:1990 Windows, doors and roof lights– Code of practice for the installation of replacementwindows and doorsets in dwellings

GLASS AND GLAZING

As far as security is concerned the main consideration is theease with which glass can be broken to provide access towindow or door hardware. The glazing specification chosen

43


should meet the design and performance requirements ofBS 6262:1982 Part 4 Glazing in buildings – Safety relatedto human impact. For those installations where a higherdegree of “security” is needed the glazing should be inaccordance with BS 5357 Code of practice for installationof security glazing

There are three main types of glass. These are:

Annealed glass

Annealed glass consists of, float, sheet, cast (patterns) andwired glass. It breaks easily and when broken forms largesharp fragments. While wired glass can be fractured, it willact as a barrier but only until the wire mesh in the glass issheared.

The application of an appropriate plastics film can increasethe resistance of annealed glass to penetration

Toughened glass

Toughened glass, (tempered glass), is an annealed glass,except wired glass, that has been subjected to a heating andrapid cooling process that imparts a greater strength to thematerial. It is resistant to impact by blunt objects but can befractured by penetration of the surface compressive layer.When fractured, the glass will not act as a barrier. Inbuildings it is usually found in ‘risk areas’ which includedoors and adjacent windows, low windows, bathrooms,landings etc. Typically toughened glass is around eight timesstronger than annealed glass but when it breaks if forms amultitude of small fragments. It is also vulnerable tobreakage with a sharp point such as a centre punch.

Due to the method in which it breaks, toughened glass offersvery little security. Its value is as a safety glass.

Laminated glass

Laminated glass consists of two or more layers of annealedglass bonded together by means of transparent plastic (polyvinyl burate - PVB) interlayers. When the glass is attackedthe glass layers fracture but remain in place, held by the PVBinterlayer. Thus laminated glass offers both increasedsecurity and safety over annealed glass. Typical laminatedglass found in domestic buildings consists of two layers ofglass and one interlayer to a total thickness of 6.4 mm (soonto increase to 6.8 mm). However, the number of glass layersand interlayers can be increased to provide enhanced securitysuch that, eventually, bullet-proof glass can be produced.

The most common failure mechanism of laminated glass isfor it to ‘balloon’ and fall out of the frame under repeatedimpacts. However, the time taken for this gives an enhancedlevel of security over other types of glass

Double glazing

Double glazing can be in the form of:-

1. insulating glass units i.e. two or more panes of glasshermetically sealed at their perimeter. These provide the

intruder with two or more panes to break.

2. double windows i.e. two separate single glazed windowsin the same opening. These assemblies provide a similardeterrent but only if the inner window is secured.

Plastics glazing material

Plastics glazing sheet material consists of either a single sheetor combination of sheets laminated together. Theperformance of these materials is dependent on the polymertype, thickness, and support condition. The advice of themanufacturer should be sought in respect of their securityand fire resistance performance, as appropriate.

Glazing

All glass or plastics glazing sheet material should be securedto the window or door structure in such a manner that itcannot be easily removed from the outside.

ALPRO ARCHITECTURAL HARDWARE

ALPRO launch their new range of electric strikes — Innovation and quality at competitive prices



ALPRO launch the new VORTEX magnet range: Our clean green locking machine

To ensure Alpro hardware stays at the forefront of newproduct design and innovation, the company haslaunched the Vortex range, a new generation of face to faceelectromagnets. The magnets are smaller than a standardslimline magnet, but combine higher holding forces of1500 kgs with lower current draw than standard magnets,making them both more efficient and ecologically friendly.

The magnets unique design embodies a conical aperturewith a strong armature pin, which combines bothmagnetic and mechanical holding force to give betterstrength capabilities and which, allow the magnet torelease under 100 Kgs of side loading. Independent testshave shown this unique feature to provide 1,500kgs(15,000N’s) of genuine holding force. The magnet is dualvoltage (12/24vDC) and draws 240mA at 12volts DC and120mA at 24volts DC.

The smaller dimensions of the unit (200mm long x 36mmhigh x 30mm deep), mean for practical purposes the unitswill also fit smaller type doors and frames. Combined witha weight of 450kgs the overall design clearly shows howmuch new and improved technology has beenincorporated in to the range whilst taking the needs of theend user into account.

Additional features built into the units include dualmonitoring, locking and door position and a large built in

LED to allow visual status. The magnet is also fitted withpressure sensors to provide an early warning system. If theunit is alerted to force, as in the situation of illegal entry, themagnet sends an alarm to pre-warn that access is beingbreached.

The units are available with a full range of accessories andmounting brackets and the product has been patented toprotect the new and innovative features. Backed up by a 10year warranty this new range of magnets is a majordevelopment in face to face magnet design and technology.

Keith Parry, Alpro’s Divisional Manager commented “Thisnew range of magnets illustrates Alpro’s stated aim ofgiving the customer what they want. This product is notonly more efficient and ecologically friendly, but is alsocompetitively priced and stronger than the currentproducts offered by competitors. The high holding force,which has been independently shown to be superior toanything currently in the market place for face to facemagnets, ensures that this range of products will be thefirst item an end user will want to install”.

The Alpro product range also comprises, a full range ofpull handles, deadlocks and deadlatches, concealedtransom closers, electric strikes, flushbolts digital locks anda full range of accessories designed for use within thecommercial aluminium industry. Alpro will once again beshow casing its full product range at a series of MLAexhibitions throughout the year.

Based in Poole Alpro boasts substantial stock levels,coupled with speedy response times, and national salescoverage with both an external and internal sales andtechnical team. Customer service is at the very heart ofAlpro’s aim of ensuring the customer receives first classservice along with competitively priced product.

Very rarely will this consist of asingle product solution but will instead be made up froma number of different elements to match the requirementsas closely as possible.

Mul-T-Lock is committed to providing innovativesolutions that can be used either on their own or as part ofa combined product offering that works hard together tooffer real benefits to the user.

Wirefree access controlPerhaps our signature system to illustrate this is Smartair,which impressively offers around 80% of the useablefeatures you’d expect from a hard wired access controlsolution at approximately 20% of the cost. Smartair isideal for any commercial environment where a degree ofpeople management is required. Each escutcheon is astandalone, wirefree access control unit that can be used

alone or linked to any number of other units, acrossmultiple sites. Smartair is both easy to install and manage,providing the site owners full control over individual doorsecurity and the movements of all users across their site.

Electro-mechanical integrationCLiQ is an example of how Mul-T-Lock is embracingelectromechanical technologies. Unlike most electroniccylinder products on the market, MT5 CLiQ incorporatesthe latest patented cylinder technology from Mul-T-Lockalong with the proven CLiQ electronic capability into awide range of door cylinder types as well as cam locks andpadlocks. This allows CLiQ products to integrateseamlessly with a mechanical master key suite whileproviding advanced access control functionality, such asaudit trail data, instant key deletion or timed access tomore sensitive areas within the premises. Taking onlyminutes to install, MT5 CLiQ provides a cost effectivesolution to upgrading existing security or where a fullaccess control system is not feasible.

Keyless convenienceWhere convenience is a priority our Code-It handleprovides the answer. Code-It is an innovative door handlewith integrated electronic security, offering simple andeffective keyless locking for internal doors. Batteryoperated, Code-It is designed to enable convenient, pincode controlled access to a door, without the need for anysecondary locking unit and will quickly replace mostexisting door handles.

Mechanical developmentsWhile much focus has been given to these new ranges itdoes not mean we have neglected our mechanicalplatforms. By example, a new range of advanced BreakSecure cylinders will soon be available offering an evenhigher level of protection against cylinder snapping forhomeowners. Meanwhile the E-Series Padlock range,available with our patented Interactive and MT5 lockingmechanisms, have been independently tested by SoldSecure, achieving Gold and Silver standard to reassureusers that they provide industry leading levels of security.

These are just a few examples of the mechanical andelectromechanical product solutions Mul-T-Lock has tooffer. And our dedicated specification sales team is onhand to work with in partnership with professionallocksmiths across the UK to create a bespoke solution forany application.

Over 10,000 customers, among them popular DIY andcash & carry stores, more than 4000 products; these areimpressive figures.

We are experts in special solutions for banks, carcentres, petrol stations, law firms, jewellers and others.We are partners with a lot of these notable branches allover Europe.

We have got warehouses in Austria, Germany, the UK,Slovakia and Romania with more than 9000 pallets.

We are proud of being an Austrian company, ourphilosophy is however to adapt to the marketsituations, lifestyles and customs of the particularcountry. Rottner regards its customers as partners andfriends. This also distinguishes us from others.

As a result Rottner has established itself as a fixedcomponent in the British and Irish market - whetherconcerning safes, gun cabinets, key cabinets / safes, oralso concerning letterboxes. Rottner can always offeran individually adapted solution.

We also offer ideas and equipment for your showroom,from a mobile sales shelf for letterboxes to the point ofadjustments to your salesroom. The new flexible salesstand for letterboxes is shown in this edition.

Having Rottner as a partner gives our customers theadvantage of being able to obtain the whole range ofproducts from one source.

Everyone is sure to find a suitable product from ourlarge range of models. We do not have 20+, but 250+

different letterbox models, and the best thing is thatthey are all in stock.

I can personally assure you that our certified safes doin fact possess the necessary licences and we have nothad to take any of our safe models off the market. Thelicence numbers are located in our headquarters andcan be requested at any time.

Only in very few cases is the success of a companybased on one particular moment. A good strategy,vision and the ability to be able to duly recognise thechanges in the market, are also pillars of goodeconomic activity, as well as having the costs undercontrol.

A good management information system – the Rottnergroup definitely has one of the best developed systems,shows the smallest changes immediately, createspredictions and bestows enormous flexibility andallows the back-office to be set up considerably smallerthan with many others.

Finally our customers also gain the benefits of this.

Despite all the success of the last years it is time torecognise the signs of the times and prepare the Rottnergroup for the next 40 years. For this reason there will besome changes in the future, that make us stronger andoffer more flexibility to the customers.

The Master Locksmiths Association was first conceived in 1957 and was the idea of the Chubb LockCompany and one or two London Locksmiths. The prime mover was Mr. Steve Fallshaw, then a locksmithin The Barbican, who became its first Chairman when it was formally founded early in 1958. The originalsixteen members decided the new ‘association’ should be known as The Greater London Master LocksmithsAssociation (GLMLA).

By the end of the first decade it had grown nationally with a wide distribution of members from all partsof the United Kingdom. At this time it elected its first national President namely Mr. Steve Stephens ofOxford. The association by now included members from overseas and a healthy growth has beenmaintained, we now number almost 1500 members in all sectors.

In the early 90’s the association restructured to meet modern demands, retaining its title Master LocksmithsAssociation (MLA) it formed three sectors. They are the ‘British Locksmiths Institute’ (BLI) for itsindividual members’ skill qualifications, ‘Guild of Keycutters’ for all producers of keys wishing to complyto standards and ‘Approved Company’ for trading companies. The fourth `Affiliates’ sector remainedunchanged and represents the manufacturers’ and suppliers to our industry.

Companies and locksmiths trading in their own right, with retail premises or operating as a mobilelocksmithing business, join the MLA Approved Company sector. It is this sector of the Association thattrades directly with the public and private sectors in the High Street and through Yellow Pages, and otheradvertising media.

The Approved Companies inspectorate means the MLA can demonstrate that all Company Members aremeeting high standards. Each company is inspected on a regular basis, thus ensuring that its members andtheir operatives maintain standards in workmanship and administration. Also members are expected toconform to legal requirements and that customer charters exist to service customer satisfaction.

Inspections have the effect of making locksmithing companies more accountable for their daily operations.Approved Company members are made aware that the MLA considers that training is also a valuablemeans to maintaining standards. Training is offered at the purpose built, state of the art training facility atthe MLA’s Head Office in Daventry.

Continued growth of the Approved Companies ensures that the MLA can offer a national network oflocksmiths and the Associations head office in Daventry refers enquirers to their nearest approvedcompany. A National 0800 number enables potential customers to find the nearest member quickly or checkthose companies displaying the MLA logo are bona fide members.

The Logo depicted here is the one that is advertised by an approvedcompany on their premises, vehicles and stationery, confirming to thepublic the standards expected of them.

Channels of arbitration exist to fully investigate any complaints ordisputes, should they arise, and the MLA advises or takes any necessaryaction. The Board of Directors continually looks at consumer mattersand advises members when appropriate.

The Approved Company sectors operates schemes whereby discountsmay be available to policyholders of most well known insurancecompanies and they provide the service behind many major help-lines.
