Van Guard Re-awarded Sold Secure Accreditation for Hooklock and Deadlock
Posted On: 7th November 2025

We’re proud to announce that Van Guard has once again successfully completed the annual re-test required to maintain our Sold Secure accreditations, an independent testing and certification scheme for security products, widely recognised as the benchmark for quality in the industry.
Our Hooklock has been re-awarded Sold Secure Gold grading, and our Deadlock has achieved Sold Secure Silver certification, demonstrating that both products continue to meet the highest standards of protection, performance, and reliability.
Products bearing the Sold Secure mark undergo comprehensive evaluation against rigorous performance criteria, including:
- Resistance to physical attack: tested against a variety of forced-entry methods such as cutting, picking, and brute force.
- Durability: built from robust materials to withstand environmental stress and long-term use.
- Ease of use: Designed to remain practical and user-friendly while providing top-level security.
These renewed accreditations reflect our ongoing dedication to delivering reliable, high-quality security solutions. At Van Guard, we take pride in creating products that not only meet industry standards but continue to offer our customers trusted, independently verified protection they can rely on every day.
