Locks firm wins Abu Dhabi deal
A firm which makes specialist safety locks will start exporting to Abu Dhabi – after its products caught the eye of a top businessman.
Jackloc, of Lutterworth, has signed a deal to distribute locks in the capital of the United Arab Emirates with Ali Sekhr, a director of Intellectual Capital Arabia.
Mr Sekhr, who also acts as a government consultant, contacted the firm after the authorities there ruled the window openings in high-rise buildings must be restricted.
It followed the death last year of 12 children who fell from high-rise tower blocks.

Jackloc's device is made of a flexible cable which restricts the opening of doors and windows. They can be fitted to any window or door, whether wooden, metal, UPVC and steel.
Director Emma Wells said: "We are pleased to be playing our part in helping to save lives by supplying Jackloc's and educating families, particularly with young children, about the importance of such safety measures."
Mr Sekhr, a former building controls officer, discovered Jackloc while researching products to help prevent other children falling from high-rise tower blocks.
Jackloc's are used in buildings all over the world, including Russia, South Africa, Mexico, Australia, Singapore and Malaysia.

“Here is another British company doing well like Triumph Motor cycles this sort of news should be headlines in the LM and news channels. Unlike many British companies that are sold off if in profit. We have failing governments lining their own pockets and ignore good British companies providing employment and expertise.”
