Locks and Art Nouveau
Saint-Gilles has one of Brussels’ highest concentrations of Art Nouveau buildings, particularly around Rue Defacqz and Avenue Jean Volders. These buildings feature monumental entrance doors with large-size lever locks, ornate brass strike plates and period handles. We restore or adapt these mechanisms by installing security cylinders in existing locks, preserving original aesthetics. Upper-floor apartments are fitted with mortise locks with profile cylinders, often in atypical dimensions specific to 1890-1920 constructions.
Daily life in Saint-Gilles
The lively nightlife at Parvis de Saint-Gilles and the high proportion of young tenants result in a large number of slammed doors in the evening and on weekends. Owners renovating townhouses around La Barriere call on us for complete solutions combining modern security with respect for historic character. Rue du Fort sees many requests for ground-floor commercial security. Building managers entrust us with implementing master key hierarchies in older condominiums, managing common entrance, cellar and apartments with a single system.
