Guide to Security
The following are recommended security devices for use in specific areas of your building.
Final exit door
A mortice deadlock should be used for the final exit door which conforms to BS3621 or a lock of higher quality. If any door is not thick enough for a mortice deadlock, other high security cylinder rim deadlocks are suitable.
Typical examples of suitable mortice deadlocks are:
Chubb 3G114, 3G220, 3G117, 3K77
Era E208, E210
Ingersoll M50, M52
Union 2151
Yale PM562, PM560, PM5511
PM5512
Banham S363
Examples of suitable cylinder rim deadlocks are:
Chubb 4L67
Ingersoll NS80, SC71
Union 1332, 1334
Yale PBS1, PBS2
Banham L111
Other external doors
The same types of mortice deadlocks should be used for other external doors as for the final exit door. Alternatively, two key operated mortice or surface mounted security bolts with removable keys sited near the top and bottom of the door. With french windows and two leaf doors, these bolts should be fitted on each leaf and used in conjunction with any centre lock already fitted.
Typical examples of suitable mortice security bolts are:
Chubb 8002, 8006
Era 838
Ingersoll DSB1
Union 8601

Typical locks suitable for patio doors are:
Chubb 8K107, 8K119
Era 100
Ingersoll PDL1
Union 7200
