It doesn’t get tougher than Squire’s premium range of Stronghold® extra high security padlocks, padbars, chains, lock and chain sets being presented for the first time at The Security Event by Squire.

 

The Squire Stronghold® brand stands for top level performance, tested and approved to the highest global standards by Sold Secure, CEN, LPCB and supported by Secured by Design. 

 

Unrivalled in strength and durability, the Stronghold® range is designed, engineered and made in Britain by security specialist Squire, which celebrates its 240-year anniversary.

 

Stronghold® locks come with an all-weather storm proof lock body cover designed to fully protect it from exposure to rain, snow, frost and sun.

 

All locks feature an electrophoretic finish which gives extreme resistance against corrosion and the keyhole dust cover provides excellent protection against the elements inside the lock.

 

The super heavy-duty SS100CS is universally respected as the world’s strongest production padlock.

 

It is designed for outdoor use where maximum security and corrosion resistance is a priority.  Locations that are high risk, such as perimeter gates, warehouses, outbuildings, shipping containers, heavy machinery, commercial vehicles and for high value property including motorcycle security at home.

 

This dual cylinder closed shackle padlock with 100mm wide solid steel lock body is the first ever to achieve the highest Loss Prevention Certification Board (LPCB) SR4 standard (not as a set) and the highest security CEN Grade 6 rating.

 

Each 6-pin cylinder offers 250,000 key differs, when combined they give a total of 625million differs.

 

One of the many benefits of this dual cylinder padlock is its wide range of uses. It can have ‘same key’ cylinders, where both cylinders operate using the same key. 

 

Or they can be keyed to differ, where the padlock is operated using two different keys.  Both versions can be keyed-alike and master-keyed. 

 

Keys can be held by different people and the lock cannot be opened unless both keys are presented.

Remarkably, the SS100CS weighs a massive 4.3kg of British steel and is capable of a tensile pull of over 24 tonnes (independently tested). 

 

It is the hero product of the Stronghold® high security padlock range, which comes in many sizes and shackle variants.  Many highlights are the solid hardened steel lock body, electrophoretic anti-corrosion finish, hardened boron alloy steel shackle, anti-drill protection and high corrosion resistance for harsh environments.

 

Designed, engineered and made in Britain, the Stronghold® brand is Squire’s premium range of extra high security padlocks, padbars, chains, lock and chain sets and keysafes. 

 

Plus, most of the extra high security Stronghold® range has the added benefit of tested and approved to the highest global standards by Sold Secure, CEN and LPCB, and supported by Secured by Design.  Testament to Squire’s reputation for long lasting toughness.

 

The Stronghold® family now includes Squire’s seriously heavy duty STH100 padbar specifically designed for use only with the SS100CS padlock.  When used together with Squire’s SS100CS padlock, they achieve the industry leading LPCB SR4 standard.

 

Additionally, on show at The Security Event will be Squire’s new generation Inigma electronic high security padlocks and cylinders, one of the world’s most secure smart lock systems for remote control access.

 

The Squire name has been at the forefront of lock making since 1780, with a great British history carried down through eight generations.

 

Today, the company is recognised for some of the technologically advanced products in lock making for home, commercial, motorcycle and cycle security - cylinders, padlocks, combination locks, multi-purpose lock and chain sets, security cables, bolts, hasps and staples, and security accessories.
