News And Views From A London Interior Design Company – The Shatafa: Islamic Douche

Sat, 28 Aug 2010 07:35:44 +0000

It’s not often that we come across a completely new type of bathroom furniture. But recently that’s what we’ve seen in some of the world’s most prestigious hotels and resorts. Residents of London have never been hugely enthusiastic about the bidet, which many feel is more of a continental European invention. But today a fresh new alternative is considered highly sought-after among London’s top interior design companies: the Shatafa (also known as the Islamic douche).

Your interior design company can discuss with you in person whether the Islamic douche is right for you as part of your next bathroom renovation project. With London’s increasingly international population, the Shatafa can be a great addition if you regularly receive guests who are familiar with Islamic customs. But what is the Shatafa? Basically it is a rust-resistant steel hose together with a shower nozzle that is designed for use as a replacement for lavatory paper in many Islamic nations. Your interior design company can provide further details, but basically one depresses a button on the nozzle to activate a gentle stream of clean, warm water. It is most effective when the user is positioned either over or next to the lavatory. The personal irrigation system is designed to eliminate deposits, germs and odours immediately after use of the lavatory. Your interior design company will provide the necessary product care manuals following installation, but basically the steel structure is non-porous and may easily be cleaned with antibacterial sprays and scrubbing pads.

London’s prestigious Landmark hotel has recently opened over a hundred renovated bathrooms that feature Shatafa units for its international clientele. To install such a device, all that is needed is an additional water source (ideally with a temperature control valve) and in some cases extra provision for drainage in the unlikely event of a misdirected spray nozzle activation by those who are inexperienced with correct Shatafa usage techniques. Talk to your interior design company about how to incorporate the Shatafa into any size of bathroom.

Home Invasion News: Highly Effective Residential Security Advice From Global Security Experts

Wed, 14 Jul 2010 07:31:29 +0000

Probably no event is as scary and potentially fatal as an violent home invasion or robbery. Though the daily risk of these crimes upon citizens and their dwellings is not typically tracked by law enforcement, news headlines tell the true story—vicious home attacks are now, sadly, part of our everyday lives. Because criminals have no regard for human life, violence and murder are simply a means to achieving an evil goal—robbing you of valuable assets, cash, and sense of security.

Americans want to believe home invasions or burglary will not happen to there family. But as an expert in the security industry and Founder of Global Security Experts, I can tell you firsthand that criminals don’t discriminate. No matter if you’re white, black, male, female, wealthy, or poor, you and your loved ones could be the next victims of a burglary or violent intrusion.

Today’s troubling statistics on home invasions and burglaries say it all:

Approximately 1 out of every 5 homes encounters a burglary or violent home intrusion
Up to 79% of home invasions are done forcibly through a “locked” door
Home burglary takes place every 14 seconds in the U.S.

As you can tell from the troubling stats, burglaries and violent home intrusions occur every 3-4 seconds across our nation. You never know when you might be next. So don’t make the awful mistake of depending solely on an alarm system and locked doors as your only barricaonly deterrent for criminals. Instead, make sure to add varying levels of security such as premium dead bolts, window protection films, and security door stops to make it exceedingly difficult for thieves and possibly violent criminals to enter your home.

One such affordable and highly effective residential security device is the patented door security brace by OnGARD. This revolutionary door brace is composed of a space-age polymer, the same substance found in U.S. fighter planes and transportation bridges worldwide. The OnGARD door stop is remarkably durable and stands firm against:

Thrusts and strikes from a heavy sledgehammer
Vigorous kicks from a 250-lb man
Powerful side, shoulder and full body slams.

A non-obtrusive, two-piece mechanism installed at the base of the door, this particular door stop works by combining the strength of the existing door, door frame, and the OnGARD door stop itself. These combined strengths enable the door to endure the most forceful of blows. Although a criminal may kick and thrust himself against the door multiple times, it usually does not take long before his fear of being seen or heard sets in, causing him to give up on the attempted break-in and the unexpected security measures.

By no means can you completely eliminate the chance of a home invasion, but you can certainly reduce your chances of becoming a victim by heeding my advice. Remember—the key to lowering your risk is adding layers of protection to your home so that any attempt to enter it is extremely problematic for the intruder.
