With winter nights drawing in, Germany’s premier security specialist, Burg-Wächter, is combining the traditional German festival with all-things security, as Locktoberfest returns once again providing a fun way to get the important security message across as we enter the key season for security with consumers.

With the cost-of-living crisis beginning to bite, home security and protecting your space and precious possessions is a real concern for all consumers. To highlight this issue and to support independent retail, Burg-Wächter is running a series of promotions and competitions, commencing in October, where independent retailers can not only get excellent deals on a range of products – including cylinder locks, night latches, tubular latches, mortice locks, door chains and uPVC window handles – but also win high-quality Burg-Wächter products of their choice.

In addition, Locktoberfest will be supported by a consumer campaign in key home-orientated titles, regional press and on social media.

Mark Pearson, commercial director at Burg-Wächter said, "As winter approaches, the cover of darkness gives criminals a significant advantage throughout this period. Burg-Wächter’s Locktoberfest is an engaging way to not only highlight serious security issues but to also give retailers the opportunity to offer customers peace of mind that their homes are protected against break-ins this winter."
