No we do not mean the above image we are referring to the Security Page on the Global Door<\/a> web site \u2013 you are probably asking yourself \u2013<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy would a company whose aim is to sell doors direct their readers to the Security page on their web site rather than the pages that show the pretty pictures of the doors.<\/p>\n

There are numerous ways form brute force to sophisticated lock snapping or bumping that the would be thief can force entry into your home so maybe Security should be a little higher on the average \u201cwish list\u201d \u2013 lock snapping and bumping are now so common that there are even instruction videos on \u201cU\u201d tube to assist our would be burglar \u2013 something like 16,000 of them according to official figures. They are not hard to find simply type \u201clock snapping\u201d into your browser and prepare to be concerned, very concerned.<\/p>\n

Our Security page simply re publishes facts that are well known within the industry but not necessarily to the public at large.<\/p>\n
