SQUIRE STANDS FOR ‘TOUGHNESS GUARANTEED’


Squire’s formidable hi-security LPCB approved Stronghold padlock range is testament to the company’s reputation for long lasting toughness that’s guaranteed.


The Squire name has been at the forefront of international lock making since 1780. It’s a family brand with a great British history carried down through eight generations, unrivalled in its experience. Today, Squire is recognised for some of the technologically advanced products in lock making such as its Stronghold SS80, designed as the world’s strongest production padlock.


This outstanding heavy-duty padlock is capable of a tensile pull of over 16 tonnes, equivalent to the weight of a passenger bus. It’s one of a host of Squire Stronghold padlocks to achieve LPCB’s security rating SR2 and SR3, providing assurance of product reliability. Technological innovation is Squire’s trademark, producing some of the most advanced lock designs on the market for home, commercial and mobile security - cylinders, padlocks, combination locks, multi-purpose lock and chain sets, security cables, bolts, hasps and staples, and security accessories. And many locks are available as standard lock, keyed alike or master keyed. This year, Squire unveiled a major new brand identity that symbolises its strength with its most comprehensive range of security products yet. Squire’s new website makes it easy to select exactly the


right product by distinctly themed categories – @Home, @Work and @Leisure and @Commercial.


Vulcan is a mighty choice Squire’s tough new high security Vulcan range for home use takes some beating. These high-performance combination and key operated padlocks come in a vast range of body widths and hardened boron steel shackle types. They’re easy to use and


fully recodable with up to 100,000 combinations.
