Gate Keepers

Security gates may not always be the first item home owners are keen to splurge on, but even with a wealth of technological advancements in home security, there’s just no substitute for the physical barrier a good security gate can provide.

As the team at Xpanda explains, “Our products are often seen as a grudge purchase. However we are passionate about safety, and our dedicated research and development teams are constantly developing new products and assembly methods in line with current criminal statistics. Often the real benefits are small changes to the manufacturing and assembly process of products. There is nothing more exciting than knowing one of our products managed to thwart criminal activity, and more often than not, saved a life.”

TO REMEMBER

When choosing your preferred security gate, it’s important to understand your specific security needs and budget. But there really is no substitute for custom design, says the team at Trellidor: “Custom-made is always going to be stronger and neater than DIY or off-the-shelf products. And it’s important to find a reputable supplier that can be trusted to provide professional after-sales service, especially with automated products like roller shutters.”
