Bespoke doorsets and windows
Secured by Design defines bespoke doorsets or bespoke windows as:
| A single or small number of doorsets or windows installed within a development (normally no more than 4 homes) of unique design with nonstandard features which preclude the use of conventional enhanced security door and window products. Doorsets or windows installed within buildings of specific architectural value, constrained by listed building or other conservation status may also be considered to be bespoke. |
