Brisant welcomes the New Year 2022 with the launch of the innovative Ultion 2 Star PLUS Security Handle, bringing together the best safety mechanisms in a handle.

It has the molybdenum cylinder security guard, technology already used in the Ultion 2 Star handle, which protects against drilling and lock snapping. 

Combine this with the patented locking mechanism from Brisant’s ‘Lock Lock’ handle, which adds an extra security bolt, and the homeowner has double the protection. The patented anti-tamper spindle is also built in.  

From the inside the homeowner simply lifts the handle and presses down the switch, showing the red half-moon which indicates the door is locked and secure. Whilst the switch is down it is impossible to move the handle up or down therefore the locking mechanism cannot be disengaged. The switch works independently from the actual euro lock barrel.  When the switch is down in the locking position, using the key to try to unlock the door will not work.  It’s the same as having a traditional iron bolt on the inside of the door.  

Once this technology is added to the design of the stylish rounded form of the handle, which stops mole grips being able to rip off the handle, Brisant’s award winning design turns the door from a temptation into a deterrent.  

Manufactured from hardened steel, this handle is coated with six layers of armour plating and survived over a year in the weather test chamber.  It comes with a twenty-year homeowner guarantee, which given the extreme weather conditions we have been facing in the UK over the last few years, has become increasingly important.  Offered in chrome, stainless steel, gold, black, white, anthracite, brushed and the modern rose gold, it will suit all door designs and colours.

The Ultion 2 Star PLUS handle will keep doors locked.

Brisant-Secure are about making products that are easy for locksmiths to sell locks and door installers to sell doors. We spend a lot of time developing new ways to make this happen and creating ways for our customers to present why their product is better. We’re always hearing customers tell us how they’ve used something we offer in a new way or with a new type of customer or with a new message or just using what we gave them and love how it looks/works.

So we have set up a trade Facebook group for those who install our products to be informed/inspired about new initiatives and to see how others are using them. This page is itself yet another way for us to help our locksmith and door installer customers see how they can use Brisant products to sell more locks and doors.

The group is called ‘Brisant. Secure Installers.’ and is being moderated collectively by our field based team, so feel free to throw in general tech questions but specific customer service questions won’t be picked up so continue to email support@brisant-secure.com or call 01924 410200.

The Fast Track 100 is measured over a three-year period.  During the years of this report homeowners have become more aware of their home security weaknesses and after doing very little research, they realise that unskilled intruders can be in their home in under 10 seconds. They then start searching for the best protection possible. The Sunday Times reports Brisant’s Ultion and Lock Lock sales growth at 111% every year for these 3 years.

“What separates our products is designing them to achieve as much as possible and not down to a standard. Whether it be doing a 1,100,000 lock cycles when only 100,000 are needed, 8000+ weather test hours when 240 are needed or having the only Sold Secure accredited door handle on the market”, says CEO Nick Dutton. “We then provide really powerful tools for our customers to relay this message to their customers. There is homeowner demand for the best, and when they realise how little the cost difference is between normal and best, they buy it.”

It’s not just business growth in which this is reflected. The Ultion Facebook page now has over 18,000 followers and the Ultion website see’s over 40,000 unique visitors every month.

Nick continues, “All at Brisant are incredibly proud of what our effort and product demand has achieved. Seeing how demand has continued through 2019 we’re hopeful of making it into next year’s list as well!”

Ultion SMART enables users to lock and unlock an entrance door using a smartphone or voice commands using a smart assistant.  As written by Active JR, a tech blogger, “Smart locks provide a new home experience with the ability to customise who can access your home and when, lock or unlock your door from anywhere with your smartphone.” Ultion SMART can be fitted quickly and easily to an existing door, supporting any locking system that uses a euro cylinder.

The Brisant stand also saw an increasing number of locksmiths who have expanded their businesses to doors and they showed great interest in Ultion WXM.  This new generation lock has additional features which adapt Ultion to meet the needs of a changing market place.

The additional molybdenum and exclusive new plug address the ever-increasing pressure on euro cylinders, with new door styles and multi-point locking systems.  This strengthening is coupled with the thicker key shape and composition. Brisant is committed to ensuring that Ultion WXM keeps everyone safe in their own homes.

Always keen to provide added extras, there is a torch set into the new Ultion keycap, perfect for winter nights when the homeowner is struggling to see their lock. Brisant’s design winning door furniture, Sweet, was also at the show.  The new square letter plate option and stainless wrapped design was also hugely popular.

CEO Nick Dutton said, “All new products are available for pre-order now and we’ll be delivering from the end of June. Thanks to everyone that came to see our products, this really is an exciting time for us and our customers.”

Matt Dunne Smith from Oswestry Windows and Doors says, “I changed door supplier for Ultion.  People are ‘security obsessed’ these days.  It’s so important to them, that it’s vital for me to be able to offer the safest doors.”

Crime is on the increase with the Police broadcasting that they can no longer investigate burglary, with theft of car keys, taken from people’s hallways becoming a more common story.  Lock snapping is still the number one method for an intruder to access a property.  Brisant is so confident with how Ultion protects against snapping, they give a £1000 guarantee direct to the homeowner.

OWD’s door sales have increased because they look after people. Not only do they provide every door with Ultion, they offer customers the opportunity of being fully Brisant Secure, with Ultion on all entrance doors, including the garage and shed, even with a padlock if necessary.  Brisant offers a next day keyed-alike service so all the locks can be fitted at the same time as the door.

Fitting a lock takes minutes and makes a huge difference to the security of the property and the safety of the people and possessions inside. Brisant makes everyone’s life safer and simpler.  It’s a smart approach to selling doors.

Brisant-Secure offer a next day keyed-alike service on Ultion, the 3 Star Sold Secure Diamond lock, that is becoming known as the lock that beats the burglar.  The average home has three entrance doors that need to be locked effectively, meaning that there are usually two more locks that can be sold for every new front door.  These locks can be keyed alike to the front door and delivered in time to be fitted at the same time as the door.

As one customer said: ‘Our homeowners don’t want to look like prison guards, they want one key that opens all of their doors, including the shed.’

Paul from Oak Lodge Doors Ltd, who are composite door specialists in Halesowen, talks about the opportunity of using Brisant’s keyed-alike next day service: ‘Changing other locks in the house is a quick thing to do, but it’s also the responsible thing to do. My company is part of our local community and we want to be sure we look after our customers. Fitting Ultion on all doors means that our community is secure and the Lock Lock handle offers additional protection. We offer people, whom we work and live near, complete peace of mind.

He continued: ‘The doors are aesthetically pleasing and safe from burglary. The other day a couple came into the showroom, intruders had broken into their home and taken their car keys while they slept.  You can’t have that, you need to be sure that your possessions and family are safe and that’s what we offer people. In addition, its quick and easy for us to do, so it gives a nice little extra on the installation.’

Brisant-Secure offer a next day service on keyed-alike Ultion cylinders and padlocks.  The customers home is safe, secured by Ultion with a £1000 guarantee against snapping.  It’s a quick, easy service that is needed by the homeowner and simple to offer by the installer.

Determined to show locksmiths what this handle can do, Brisant-Secure offered the best show deal to date, and both current and new customers took good advantage of the amazing price offered.

There’s a trusted acceptance that once a locksmith has used Lock Lock and seen it in action, they want to use it again. Thanks to everyone that spent time on the LockExpo stand, who had the opportunity to experience the product first hand.

LockLock is a secure lock and a beautiful handle in one unit. Bought with a key or without (the keyless version is perfect for doors that you never need to lock on the outside) an internal switch within the handle locks the door spindle.  If the spindle can’t turn, the door will not open.

At 8,000 hours, Lock Lock lasted for over 30 times the accreditation requirement of 240 in a salt spray chamber.  With two layers of copper and two layers of nickel, the registered curved design resists pitting. So why is this the only handle to achieve Sold Secure accreditation?  It’s because built within it are nine unique and patented methods of protection.

Lock Lock is a non-handed TS007 2 Star handle. Brisant-Secure is so confident of Lock Lock’s performance, it comes with a 10 year direct-to-homeowner guarantee managed directly by Brisant.

The GOOD DESIGN^® awards are one of the world’s oldest design awards programme which is organised by The Chicago Athenaeum Museum of Architecture and Design in cooperation with the European Centre for Architecture, Art, Design and Urban Studies. It was founded in 1950 by architects Eero Saarinen, Charles and Ray Eames and Edgar Kaufmann, Jr.

There were other notable winners from 47 different countries worldwide including the likes of Apple, Kohler, Samsung and Smeg with just 12 winners representing the safety and security sector.

Lock Lock is the only security door handle that carries Sold Secure and is increasingly being sold as a cylinder free option for non-final exit doors. It’s also part of Sweet, a revolutionary door furniture suite that shares the same registered curved shape throughout and that has successfully achieved over 8,000 hours in a salt spray chamber.

Nick Dutton, CEO of Brisant Secure commented: ‘We are very much a business with a global outlook in everything that we do. To sit alongside so many household brands and product innovators is testament to our Lock Lock handle and the way in which we design super secure products for our markets. It’s now become a must sell on all entrance door sales.’

In 2018, the Ultion website enjoyed a 53% increase in the number of unique visitors, while there were ten times more followers on Facebook at the end of last year compared to the start. Even consumers are now talking about the super security products in the form of Lock Lock and Ultion, as social media feeds have shown.

While the consumer statistics have been impressive, the improved sales performance have been equal with 24% more businesses selling Brisant Secure products in 2018 than the previous year. These include composite door manufacturers, PVCu door fabricators and many respected locksmiths.

On average each of these companies sold 30% more than they did before, the clearest indication yet that super secure has now become the norm. Collectively these customers made 61% more doors Brisant Secure in 2018 and the expectations are again for significant growth in 2019, as homeowners look to make their respective properties more secure for a very modest investment.

Nick Dutton CEO of Brisant Secure commented: ‘2018 was the year that super secure has become the norm and we’ve even made a video out of these statistics. We’ve added a number of clever marketing tools for our customers, so they can sell the benefits of super security direct to the homeowner, helping to make the sales process easy.’
