What is Secured by Design?
Secured by Design (SBD) is the official UK police security initiative, owned by the UK Police Service. Its primary aim is to reduce crime and enhance safety by integrating effective crime prevention measures into building design.
Additionally, SBD collaborates closely with Designing Out Crime Officers (DOCOs) to advise architects, developers, and planners. This collaboration spans various sectors, including residential, education, health, and commercial. Consequently, SBD sets and maintains rigorous standards for security products. By doing so, it ensures that products meet the Police Preferred Specification, providing a recognised benchmark that effectively deters and reduces crime.
The Safety Letterbox Company & Secured by Design Collaboration
The Safety Letterbox Company has actively collaborated with Secured by Design (SBD) and Designing Out Crime Officers (DOCOs) to enhance the security of mailbox and parcel delivery systems.
By adhering to SBD’s rigorous standards, The Safety Letterbox ensures products, like the TS009 range, and our Secure Information Boxes meet the Police Preferred Specification. This involves thorough testing and certification processes to guarantee that the products effectively deter and reduce crime.
Additionally, The Safety Letterbox Company works closely with DOCOs during the design and planning stages, incorporating crime prevention measures and principles into their products. This partnership ensures that our solutions not only meet security requirements but also integrate seamlessly into various development projects, enhancing overall safety and peace of mind for end-users.
