About the group
The Surelock McGill Group has for over sixty years been recognised as a global leader in providing high level protection solutions against forced entry, blast and ballistic threats, fire containment and life-safety egress.
The Surelock McGill Group is a world class, innovative design and manufacturing organisation providing security and safety solutions world-wide. Intensive research and development underpins the design and manufacture of our high security locking & door solutions for a demanding, and highly sensitive market. We pride ourselves in a huge range of accreditation to many international security and safety standards. Our security solutions can provide a high level of protection against forced entry, blast, and ballistic threats, plus fire containment. This protection comes with compliant life-safety measures where required (such as the provision of panic egress). Whatever our customers needs are we strive to provide them with the right solution.
The Group spans nine separate businesses, each with state-of-the-art research, design, development, and manufacturing facilities. Together, they offer the best value and longevity of products and services for our customers.
We have manufacturing centres in the UK and in North America, with distribution centres in Australasia. This, together with OEM customers in every continent, provides us with a global presence and product support, wherever our customers are located.
As both a turnkey and customised security solution provider – we work directly with OEMs, end users, consultants, architects, specifiers, system-integrators, manufacturers, and more to create an end solution that not only facilitates safety and security. Our locking systems and associated door furniture provide the widest range of products to meet the often-conflicting requirements of ensuring both security and life-safety.
Our emphasis on testing, with extensive in-house testing facilities, has provided our products with international accreditation for both security and life-safety, cementing ourselves within the marketplace as the highest of trusted global brands. This is why we are the world’s leading specialist in protection against physical and surreptitious attack, ballistic and blast, together with fire and acoustic and life-safety solutions. With over 60 years’ experience we have been specified to protect some of the highest profile sites with products in every continent around the world (yes – even Antarctica!). Our superbly-designed and robust products are due in part to many years of supporting offshore oil and gas exploitation. The requirements for the offshore environment means that our products are designed and tested for longevity and high resistance to corrosion.
