Lock, Stock & Brisant
» » THE LONG-TERM RELATIONSHIP
between Brisant Secure and Federal
Lock has been further cemented with
the appointment of the Dewsbury-
based hardware and lock specialist as
the official stockist for Federal branded
products.
Many of the hugely popular Federal-
branded products - including padlocks
- will be available at great prices on
a next-day service from the on-line
ordering facility on the Brisant Secure
website in the coming weeks. Customers
are promised a service tailored for
locksmiths with a dedicated ‘Federal
Product’ section on the website at www.
brisant-secure.com, as well as world
class order-fulfilment levels of all Brisant
products.
One of the many new products on offer
as the official stockist, will be the Federal
UCF Sold Secure Diamond grade cylinder
and with its magnetic pin, the UCF brings
much greater key control. Sales of the
Federal 6YCF 6 pin cylinder will receive
a free upgrade to the outstanding Ultion
range. As well as the same Sold Secure
Diamond accreditation, Ultion also comes
with 11 pins, dimple key, £1000 security
guarantee, unparalleled sales support
tools, and a next-day keyed alike service.

TESTING TIMES: BREATHALYSER FOR BUSINESSES
» » IN 2014 COUNCILS ACROSS THE UK
piloted an on-the-door breathalyser
scheme to help reduce binge-drinking and
tackle violence at night-time venues. As a
result, some areas recorded a reduction of
up to 32% in violent crime. Pubs and clubs
have continued with the initiative, with
many landlords and club owners citing
the tests as helping to reduce arguments
and confrontations with door staff after
they’ve refused entry.
With the scheme receiving such
positive backing, alcohol safety and
training specialist AlcoDigital, which
works with dozens of companies across
the UK addressing their alcohol and
drug testing procedures and policies, has
launched a new instant results easy-read
breathalyser to the business market called
the AlcoSaber.
The AlcoSaber (£295 + VAT each) is a
simple to use, innovative breathalyser
and the newest design concept in alcohol
testing for companies looking to carry out
quick and simple screening that delivers
instant results.
The absence of a mouthpiece makes
the AlcoSaber ideal for testing individuals
in quick succession and provides a low
maintenance, cost-effective solution
for companies requiring a rapid and
immediate screening process.
Not only is it ideal for rapid response
testing of potential patrons at pubs
and clubs, it can also be used by other
businesses to check employees as they
arrive at work. Those being tested by the
AlcoSaber simply blow into the air hole
on top and a LED light will clearly display
a red for positive or green for negative
in seconds. The AlcoSaber is the only
breathalyser of this type to feature a digital
display reading indicating the level of
alcohol detected.
Suzannah Robin, who has been
an alcohol and drug safety expert at
AlcoDigital for over 14 years, said, “safety

is a huge concern for all businesses. The
success of the on-the-door breathalyser
trials carried out at pubs and clubs
across the UK demonstrate the difference
a change in policy can make to the
wellbeing of not just staff and customers,
but whole communities. The new
AlcoSaber is the ideal device for instant,
accurate screening that provides clear,
easy-to-read results.”
