Reinforced Door Frames Should Be Part of Your Security Set-up

Reinforced Door Frames Keep Criminals Out

Why should your home or business have reinforced door frames? When people think of security services, their minds typically jump to alarm systems, surveillance cameras and security guards. All of these security services are important and they should all be a part of your home or business security set-up. However, it’s also crucial that you don’t overlook physical security tools. Physical security tools such as reinforced door frames prevent access to a property and make break-ins significantly less likely.

One physical security tool that should be installed in every home and business is reinforced doors and reinforced door frames.

One of the main ways that criminals break into properties is by forcing their way in. Many break-ins are “smash and grab” robberies where criminals use force to get into a property and steal as much as they can before the authorities arrive. Even properties that have strong doors with dead bolts installed and locked can become victims of smash and grab robberies. Reinforced door frames are needed to improve security.

Remember that a physical security set-up is only as strong as its weakest link. In many homes and businesses, the door frames are a weak link. Criminals take advantage of weak door frames to break doors from their hinges and gain access to a property.

How Reinforced Door Frames Stop Crime

When you have reinforced door frames installed, you prevent criminals from easily tampering with or damaging your doors and door frames. In fact, you can even install door and door frame interlocking systems that not only reinforce your door frame, but also allow you to interconnect the door and the frame when the door is shut and locked. This greatly improves the security at your home or business since it makes it significantly more difficult to break through a door and gain access to a property.

Interconnected reinforced frames prevent the door frame from splitting or being removed from the frame. This greatly improves their effectiveness and makes properties that have reinforced door frames much more difficult to break into.

Interlocking reinforced door frames can be installed on any existing door, making this a convenient yet powerful way to protect yourself, your property and your family. The hinges, locks and dead bolts do not have to be replaced, which makes installation fast and efficient. It also means that the interconnected reinforced door frames cannot be seen with the door closed, so the look of your home or business is not affected.
