A New Year Renewal

Banham Security has renewed its membership with Secured by Design (SBD), the National Police Crime Prevention initiative.

SBD Development Officer Lyn Poole said: “Banham Security are a great company that have a well established reputation, especially for their unique locks. I am extremely pleased they have renewed their SBD membership and are also having more products accredited by us as having met the Police Preferred Specification”.

Banham Security said: “We feel that SBD is an important and influential initiative and we are therefore very pleased once again to renew our licence for another 3 years. We have always had a close relationship with Police forces in the South East and sponsor several local initiatives including two Police cars for Surrey and Sussex.

“With over 90 years of excellence and experience in security, we have built an unparalleled reputation for our products and services. As a result, we are now the largest supplier of burglary prevention systems in London”.

SBD is a police-owned organisation that works on behalf of the Police service throughout the UK to deliver a wide range of crime prevention and demand reduction initiatives.

SBD plays a significant crime prevention role in the planning process to design out crime in a wide range of building sectors. It has achieved some significant success including one million homes built to SBD standards with reductions in crime of up to 87%.

Products must be subjected to vigorous testing and auditing by an accredited third-party organisation before being allowed to carry the SBD logo – this is the only way for companies to obtain Police accreditation for security related products in the UK.
