2. D. All of the above

Explanation 1:
SBD (Secured by Design) certification is a recognized UK standard for security products. It signifies that a window meets specific security requirements set by the police and other authorities. This certification ensures that the window is more resistant to forced entry, providing enhanced protection for your property.

Explanation 2:
Security-rated windows are designed with multiple features to improve their resistance to break-ins. These include:

  • Double glazing: Two layers of glass provide extra insulation and strength.
  • Reinforced frames: Strengthened materials to withstand more force.
  • High-security locks: Specialized locks that are more difficult to tamper with or force open

These features work together to create windows that not only provide security but also peace of mind.
