Security Locks

    I have checked through the threads on this point, but there doesn't seem to be a clear answer, so bear with me.

    I recently changed my home insurance provider and have received my new policy. Its states on the policy that you must have a five lever mortice lock or a similar rim lock. My own wooden front door has a multi point lock, pull the handle up and one centre bolt engages as well as the two circuler bolts slide up and down. I believe the unit is made by G U Farco and the bolt has a ISEO stamp on it.

    I rang the insurance provider to query this and they said its just as good as a mortice lock which means there should be no problem. Question is, is it just as good for claim purposes? Would anybody know for a fact that it is acceptable in the insurance world, or should i get written confirmation from the insurance provider that its ok?

    I have already not asked for the alarm discount because of the fact that it was installed before i moved in, therefore i can't get it certified, but i'd like to know about the lock question by somebody who might have some previous experience. Last thing i want is to nullify any future claim that i may have.
