Mul-T-Lock has devoted the month of October to ‘Locktober’, a month-long campaign designed to support locksmiths in providing expert advice and effective security solutions for the darker months ahead.
Locktober aims to help locksmiths guide their customers through the heightened risks associated with the winter season, including the significant increase in burglaries, equipping them with the right products and knowledge to secure homes and vehicles.
Launching the campaign, Suresh Peri, Mul-T-Lock head of commercial and technical says: “Crime Statistics show December and January are the peak times of year for burglaries, highlighting how it is incredibly important to consider home security measures in winter.
“Locksmiths play a vital role in helping homeowners feel safe and secure, offering the right solutions to make an opportunist burglar think twice. Locktober has been introduced to provide the tools and support to proactively offer their customers reliable, high-security solutions that make a real difference.”
Central to Locktober is the MTL™300 cylinder lock, known for its exceptional reliability in preventing common break-in techniques, such as picking, bumping, and drilling. Locksmiths can confidently recommend the MTL™300 to homeowners looking to reinforce their front doors and other entry points.
Mul-T-Lock will also highlight the benefits of NE/NG padlocks, as well as the robust HaspLock Diamond, as versatile solutions for securing both residential and commercial premises. These offer strong protection against tampering and forced entry, especially to sheds and outbuildings, which are often targeted and exposed as the darker nights set in.
Suresh concludes: “As the nights grow longer, our goal with Locktober is to empower locksmiths with the right products, insights, and support to offer their customers peace of mind. By working together, we can help ensure homes, businesses, and vehicles are well-protected during the winter months and beyond, providing effective security measures that reduce vulnerabilities and enhance safety. Look out for our dedicated social media #locktober updates to get involved!”
