The Asec London Bar is a heavy-duty door frame reinforcer designed to provide significant protection against physical attacks, such as kicking or forcing of the door. It functions as a robust steel strike plate that strengthens the weakest part of the frame—the area surrounding the lock keep.

Constructed from 5mm thick steel with rounded edges, the bar is fitted to the internal face of the door frame on the lock side. Its integral 'D' shaped staple is engineered to fit directly over the staple (keep) of a surface-mounted rim lock or nightlatch. By securing the keep within this steel housing, the bar effectively transfers the force of an impact across the full length of the frame rather than a single point, preventing the timber from splitting.

This product is ideal for both new installations and as a remedial solution for frames that have already suffered damage. It is a vital component for high-security timber door sets in both residential and commercial properties. Before installation, compatibility should be confirmed by checking the dimensions of the existing lock staple against the 'D' shape aperture.

FAQs

The ASEC London Bar is a high-security steel device designed to reinforce the lock side of a door frame. It is installed on the internal face of the frame to prevent it from splitting or being forced open during a kicking or shoulder-charge attack.

This bar is specifically designed for use with surface-fitted rim locks or cylinder nightlatches. It features a 'D' shaped staple that fits over and secures the lock's existing keep, anchoring it more firmly to the door frame.

The London Bar is available in two standard lengths to suit different door heights: 1770mm and 1980mm. Both versions are constructed from 5mm thick steel with rounded edges and include countersunk holes for a flush screw fit.

It is critical to check the size of your existing lock's staple (the part on the frame) before ordering. The 'D' shaped section of the London Bar must be large enough to fit over your specific brand of lock keep to ensure a proper and secure installation.
