How do I choose the right security fitting for my door?

Choosing a suitable security escutcheon for your door depends on several factors that should be taken into account. These are as follows:

• Door material: Consider the material of your door. Wooden doors require different security fittings than metal or plastic doors. The security escutcheon should fit firmly and securely on the door without damaging it.
• Security standards: Pay attention to the relevant security standards. Security escutcheons with the SKG seal, for example, indicate tested security and therefore offer greater protection against break-ins.
• Lock cylinder: The lock cylinder on the outside should ideally not protrude, in order to prevent it from being twisted off or broken. An integrated pull protection further increases security.
• Installation: It is important that the security escutcheon is screwed in from the inside. This prevents it from being removed from the outside without difficulty.
• Design: Finally, the design of the security escutcheon should not only match your door, but also the overall style of your house.

By considering these points, you can ensure that you choose the right security escutcheon for your door, one that is both visually appealing and offers optimal protection.
