Home safe
40% of forced entries into houses were made through downstairs’ casement windows. It can only take as little as 20 seconds to jemmy open a typical window lock. If this doesn’t work, most ordinary friction hinges can be levered open just as easily.
One of the biggest benefits that uPVC can offer you is one that you cannot actually see or feel. If you are one of the lucky ones then you will never need it but if you are unlucky, then you will be very pleased you made the right choice.
Vantage Windows & Conservatories would recommend two manufacturers - VEKA and Duraflex. Each of these companies build security into every frame. Advanced mechanisms like hook-locks, shootbolts and multi-point locking, as well as the toughness of uPVC - mean that good quality uPVC frames far exceed the security that a timber frame can offer.
There is, however, one aspect of the window that you MUST not omit and that's "INTERNALLY GLAZED" frames. Internally glazed frames mean that the glazing beads are fitted INTERNALLY preventing the removal of the glass from the OUTSIDE.
