When managing housing stock, specifying for commercial developments, or overseeing residential builds, ensuring long-term safety without exceeding project budgets is a constant priority. At Blairs Windows & Doors, we understand the challenge of balancing robust security requirements with cost-effective, durable site solutions.
Our comprehensive range of Timber, Aluminium, and PVCu window and door systems are precision-engineered to help you achieve both. By manufacturing systems certified to the highest UK security accreditations, PAS 24 and Secured by Design (SBD), we provide main contractors, housing associations, and architects with absolute building compliance and long-term peace of mind.
What PAS 24 & Secured by Design Mean for Your Projects
Meeting safety guidelines shouldn’t involve guesswork. Specifying certified fenestration ensures your building envelope is verified by independent, rigorous security testing before installation ever begins.
PAS 24 Certification
PAS 24 is an enhanced security performance standard required for door and window assemblies in the UK. Products carrying this certification undergo strict physical testing to resist opportunistic burglary attempts. From high-torque hardware manipulation to heavy impact testing, our timber, aluminium, and PVCu profiles are proven to remain tough against forced entry.
Secured by Design (SBD) Accreditation
Secured by Design is the official police security initiative created to improve building safety through physical security standards. SBD accreditation serves as a powerful endorsement for your developments.
Police statistics show that developments built to SBD standards experience up to 75% less burglary compared to non-accredited builds.
Key Benefits for Housing Associations, Contractors & Communities
Investing in SBD and PAS 24 accredited window and door systems delivers tangible, long-term value across your entire portfolio:
