Sold Secure is a company dedicated to reducing the risk of crime by the assessment of security products through manual attack testing.
Established in 1992 by Northumbria and Essex Police with the help and backing of the Home Office, Sold Secure is now owned and administered by the Master Locksmiths Association and works from purpose built laboratories in Daventry.
The scheme has close ties with a number of constabularies
and insurers who provide regular information regarding the methods of theft and
the tools utilised by criminals in their areas. This helps to maintain up to
date specifications and means security products can be assessed in the light of
the risk they are likely to encounter when in use
Manufacturers and suppliers can apply to have their products approved by Sold Secure. Products which have been satisfactorily assessed may
bear the coveted Sold Secure Approved quality mark. Information on these
approved products is circulated by Sold Secure to crime prevention officers,
insurance companies, the media, the Home Office and the public, and is
available free to those who require it in the form of the catalogue or via the
Sold Secure website.
Steffan George, of Sold Secure says "We’re delighted to partner up with CaSSOA who we believe have the same ultimate goal as ourselves in terms of working in collaboration to reduce crime".
