Secured by Design – Enhanced Security Accreditation
At Milton Windows, we offer doors and windows that have achieved Secured by Design (SBD) accreditation — a recognised standard backed by UK police expertise for improving home security. This accreditation ensures products have met strict performance and crime-prevention requirements through independent testing.
Secured by Design is part of a national initiative developed with police input to help reduce burglary and criminal damage by encouraging the use of products designed with security in mind.
What Secured by Design Means
SBD accreditation is awarded to products that meet rigorous security criteria. To qualify, door and window systems must be tested to standards such as PAS 24:2022 — a UK security benchmark for resisting forced entry and meeting building regulations.
Products achieving Secured by Design status have demonstrated performance in independent UKAS-approved testing, giving homeowners greater confidence in their security investment.

Security Features for Doors
Doors with Secured by Design accreditation typically include a combination of:
PAS 24:2022 tested construction — doors tested to enhanced security standards to deter forced entry.
Reinforced locking systems — robust multi-point locks designed to resist snapping, picking and drilling.
Letterbox guards — where fitted, guards help prevent intruders from reaching inside through the letter flap.
Optional security enhancements — features such as spyholes and chains for additional peace of mind.
Security Features for Windows
Windows accredited under Secured by Design include features such as:
PAS 24:2022 approved frames and locks for resistance against forced entry.
Multi-point locking mechanisms with several locking points around the window perimeter to strengthen resistance.
Internal glazing beads to prevent glass removal from outside.
Reinforced hinge brackets to protect against leverage attempts.
Night-ventilation settings that allow fresh air without compromising security.
Why It Matters
Choosing Secured by Design accredited products means choosing doors and windows that have been independently assessed for their ability to help protect your home. Products meeting these standards can significantly enhance the theft-resistance of your property and contribute to overall peace of mind.
