FUHR UK renews Secured by Design membership

FUHR says it has reaffirmed its commitment to delivering high-performance, police-preferred security solutions with the renewal of its Secured by Design accreditation.

As the official police security initiative, Secured by Design sets recognised standards for products that help reduce crime and improve the security of residential and commercial buildings. Maintaining this accreditation reportedly demonstrates FUHR’s continued focus on developing locking systems that meet the highest levels of security, performance and reliability.

The renewed certification covers a wide range of FUHR multipoint locking systems, designed for modern door applications across aluminium, timber, steel and PVC-U systems.

These products are rigorously tested to ensure they meet the requirements expected by specifiers, fabricators and installers working on security-critical projects.

The certification includes the FUHR autosafe 835, featuring FUHR’s DuoSecure locking technology with solid hook bolts that locate into the keep without contact. The accreditation also extends across FUHR’s multisafe, autosafe and panic ranges, as well as the fully motorised multitronic 881.

By maintaining this certification, FUHR says it continues to provide confidence that its locking solutions have been independently assessed and approved against recognised UK standards.

Paul Balfe, Business Development Manager at FUHR UK, commented: “Secured by Design is a well-recognised and trusted accreditation within the UK market. Renewing this certification reinforces our commitment to delivering locking solutions that not only meet compliance requirements but also provide proven security performance.”
