Peter Jones puts the quality back into Police Kit

by Lianeh on Feb.01, 2012, under Patrol Store

Peter Jones specialises in very high quality police kit and tetra radio equipment. Using Klickfast technology on their airwaves products they are the perfect companion for officers on duty.
The current range we have in stock at Patrol Store are…
Peter Jones 50mm Leather Double Pronged Belt – These high quality leather belts are one of the most popular items in the Peter Jones range. Available in sizes Small, Medium and Large they are made using the finest quality materials. Manufactured using stout leather and finished with a double pronged nickel plated buckle, they measure in 50mm (2inch) width which is perfect for wearing on duty as well as for casual purposes as they look good and smart.
http://www.patrolstore.com/Peter-Jones-KlickFast-Peli-Light-Dock.html – These nifty little docks are specifically designed for Peli Lights so would make the perfect companion for the Peli Versabrite VB3 in Black or Hi-Viz Yellow. Made of high quality materials the dock will arrive un-assembled but they are pretty easy to put together and reasonably priced too. These are the most popular of the Peter Jones range alongside the Torch Dock.
Peter Jones Klickfast Torch Dock – These are very handy bits of kit and very versatile too. Designed to fit torches with a diameter of 20 to 30mm they are also suitable for cameras with a similar shaped body. Made of high quality materials the dock will arrive un-assembled but they are pretty easy to put together and reasonably priced too. These are the most popular of the Peter Jones range alongside the Peli Dock.
Peter Jones CS Spray Holder With 360 Rotation – Almost every order I see come through has one of these on there. The CS Spray Holder itself is attached with a “springy” lanyard (which is also available as a replacement stand alone item) and is made of durable hard plastic, designed to accommodate a 35mm canister. The 360 degree rotation belt loop gives you the option of right or left handed draw and also offers a speedy withdrawal.
Of course these aren’t the only Peter Jones products we have in stock, we have a wide range available and they can be viewed by clicking here.

Stealthly Magnums Fit For Purpose

by Lianeh on Jan.30, 2012, under Patrol Store

At Patrol Store we have a wide range of Magnum Stealth Force. Ranging from your bog standard leather and nylon up to your all singing and dancing composite toe/plate with side zip, you can be sure you will find a Stealth Force boot to match your needs.
Starting from the bottom, we have the Magnum Boots – Stealth Force 8″ – Leather and Nylon. These boots offer comfort and stability from the moment you put them on. The breathable nylon mesh keep your feet cool, whilst the 8-inch leather and nylon upper offer protection for your ankles. The comfortable footbed is made using the Magnum branded 3D2 memory foam insole which offers shock mitigation and breathability for those who are on their feet all day. The Magnum Boots – Stealth Force 8″ – Leather and Nylon also boasts moisture wicking lining which draws sweat away from the foot to avoid those sticky situations. With some great features like the heel point kick pad which is there to offer anti-slip on the foot well of vehicles when driving. A perfectly balanced boot for safety, support and protection.
If the Magnum Boots – Stealth Force 8″ – Leather and Nylon doesn’t float your boat, why not try the Magnum Boot Stealth Force – 8.0 WPI. This all leather version of the Stealth Force offers all the protection and comfort of the bog standard leather and nylon version but with the added WPI technology. WPI gives you protection from Blood Borne Pathogens as well as being Waterproof. Here is what Magnum say about Ion Mask: “Originally developed for military clothing and designed to combat chemical agents, ion-mask technology by P2i is an award winning ultra protective surface enhancement pioneered by Magnum that offers truly groundbreaking benefits, so much so that it forces the world to sit up and take notice.
This breakthrough in surface enhancement works at a molecular (nano) level. Applied inside a plasma chamber, the ion-mask™ treatment binds invisibly to a product material’s surface and fibres, resulting in extraordinary benefits to the end user, without affecting the look, feel or ‘breathability’ of the boot.
Magnum is proud to have pioneered the introduction of ion-mask™, a quantum leap forward in performance, for certified safety and uniform footwear.” Based on that description there’s really nothing else I can say to sell these boots to you.
If your job doesn’t involve romping around puddles but you still need the Stealth Force protection then we have them available in All Leather with Composite Toe and Plate in both 6″ and 8″ high boots. Offering all the benefits of the Magnum Boots – Stealth Force 8″ – Leather and Nylon but made out of all leather they come with the reasurrance that your feet are going to be safely protected with the composite material inside the boots. If you don’t want the ankle protection of the 8″ version of these boots then they are available in 6″.
Lastly, we have the Magnum Stealth Force 8.0 Leather SZ CT CP WPi Black. So not only do you get the Stealth Force benefits and safety you can also get speed with having a side zip and they’re waterproof too!

Fixed Penalty Notice Holders That Are Just The Ticket

by Lianeh on Nov.24, 2011, under Patrol Store

Let’s face it. No one likes to receive a Fixed Penalty Notice on their cars. And I’d personally like to think that Traffic Officers don’t like to issue them either and perhaps they really don’t take pleasure in giving them out to people who accidentally park where they shouldn’t do. But sometimes, it just has to be done I guess.
Here at Patrol Store we have a couple of variety of Fixed Penalty Notice Holders that will do the job, even when you don’t want them to.

Firstly we have the PWL Fixed Penalty Notice Holder. I have always been impressed with Price Western Leather’s quality goods. Made using the finest leather materials you can tell it has been handcrafted to perfection. They are our most popular make of Fixed Penalty Notice Holders and come with a twelve month guarantee, and I can whole heartedly put my hand up and say that I have never seen one of these returned due to wear and tear nor any other general faults in the three years I’ve been with Patrol Store. The PWL Fixed Penalty Notice Holder is double sided so you can keep two types of Fixed Penalty Notice or other forms inside. On one side there is a leather strap across the centre with a keyring and leather loop, also a pouch with popper closers. The other side of the PWL Fixed Penalty Notice Holder has four sets of tighter leather straps and a leather loop. Both sides have a sprung metal clip with a clear plastic divider to place between the document copies to stop bleed from the pages being written to the pages beneath. Closes to one third size when it is fully open.

On the other hand there is the Fixed Penalty Notice Holder – PU. Made from Polyutherane (PU) materials, the combination of Carbamates (utherane) used to make the Polymer give the Protec branded Fixed Penalty Notice Holder – PU plenty of flexibility and durability. Basically it offers the elasticity of rubber combined with the toughness and durability of metal. Urethanes have better abrasion and tear resistance than rubbers, while offering higher load bearing capacity making the Fixed Penalty Notice Holder – PU a tough cookie indeed!

It really is a personal choice when it comes to choosing a Fixed Penalty Notice Holder which only you, the buyer, can make.

Patrol Store Gets Sporty with the Adidas GSG9s

by Lianeh on Nov.15, 2011, under Patrol Store

What people have said about the Adidas GSG9s is they cannot imagine ever buying anything else. They are incredibly light weight and have been known to be love at first fit! When you try them on they feel like a pair of slippers and that comfort stays with you.

If your job often requires you to be on your feet for hours at a time and you get very hot, tired feet then these are the boots for you. The technology inside these mean when it’s cold your feet are toasty and when it’s hot your feet are nice and cool.

Many people use the Adidas GSG9 for riding their bike, because GSG’s are made of a very soft leather they are easy on foot controls, therefore this would make them perfect for driving.

The Adidas GSG9 are also fully waterproof, not that we reccommend you stood in a bucket, but they certainly wouldn’t catch you out in the rain!

They also look really cool, and not like regualr, clompy military or police boots. These are sporty in a kind of “step in the boxing ring” way. Don’t be put off by the price. Think of them as an investment. With an average feedback score of 9.5 out of 10, you can’t go wrong with a pair of Adidas GSG9. And with Christmas fast approaching, personally I would add these to my wish list.

Available in 2 sizes, the Adidas GSG9.2 which is the 8 inch version and the Adidas GSG9.4 which is the 6 inch version.

Extensive Range of Multi-Tools

by Lianeh on Nov.01, 2011, under Patrol Store

How did we ever manage before multitools were invented?

This is one useful bit of kit that is capable of handling many different applications according to your current requirements. When thinking of multi-tools our thoughts would have turned to the seemingly fantastic quality Swiss Army Knife that seems to have been around for an eternity and indeed these are still the same high quality pieces of kit that they have always been. Beware of cheap and inferior imitations though…you should look for the names Victorinox or Wenger as the quality benchmarks. At Patrolstore we stock the Victorinox knives that are fantastically manufactured and are as useful as they’ve ever been.

In recent years the multitool has taken on a new face and is most commonly of the plier type probably made famous initially by Leatherman. Again, there are many cheaper models on the market and you should only buy a brand that you can trust like Leatherman, Gerber or the all new Bear Grylls range, available from Patrolstore. Go and take a look at our diverse range of mutitools and never be caught out without something to effect a repair.

As an example, check out our best selling Multi-Tool, the reknowned Suspension Multi Tool. With more features than Batman’s Utility Belt, this tool is very versatile and includes needle-nose pliers, wire cutters, fine edge blade, serrated edge blade, saw, scissors, cross-point screwdriver, small and medium flat blade screwdrivers, a can opener, bottle opener and a lanyard hole. With all this power it only weighs around 9oz and is smaller than the average mobile phone.

The stainless steel handles of the Gerber Suspension fold back to reveal a 2 ¼ inch pair of needle-nose pliers. These are cleverly spring-loaded to open automatically. If it’s precision work you need it for then the front ¾ inch of the pliers has a sharp point. The flat surfaces and fine serrations are what you would expect from any quality set of needle-nose pliers. The spring loaded opening mechanism of the pliers makes them very easy to reposition.

The casing of the Gerber Suspension is constructed of stainless steel, helping resist corrosion, whilst the skeletonised frame should prevent moisture from being trapped within the tool.

The blades can be opened in a one-handed motion and are of a drop-point design to protect the user by minimising the damage from an unintended jab.

Overall, the Gerber Suspension is great value for what it does. It’s rugged, substantial, compact, versatile and affordable. It would also make a great gift for somebody…and Christmas is only 8 weeks away after all…

Danner Boots Kicking In at Patrol Store

by Lianeh on Oct.21, 2011, under Patrol Store

Just landed at Patrol Store HQ is the new range of Danner Boots. With their built to last, awesome features you can guarantee that they will be there for you when you need them most; and I don’t mean in the cuddly TLC manner as they have some serious attitude!

First off we have the Danner Acadia 8″ Black Boot. With a Gore-Tex breathable 100% waterproof lining, you can be sure you can trapse or dance through puddles without getting your feet wet (though Patrol Store doesn’t suggest the latter…each to their own of course!), and even keep you dry in extreme conditions.

Engineered with durability, they are anti-scuff, anti-tear, anti-abrasion…Danner have certainly upped the anti with these Acadia boots. They are built for stability and the lace-to-toe gives you that feeling of extra security; not with the intention of making you feel all warm and fuzzy inside. The Vibram® Kletterlift sole is designed purely for comfort and durability, whilst the heel provides lightweight comfort as well as outstanding shock absorption. You can’t really go wrong with the Danner Acadia really.

On the other hand we have the Danner Kinetic range. Available in four different versions, the Danner Kinetics have taken the toughest materials and put them together with softness to give you a boot that is hard on the outside and chewy on the middle, or is that Dime bars? Let’s try that again, the Danner Kinetic’s are tough on the outside and soft inside…I know a few people like that. Just like the Acadia, these boots are built to last. Made using the toughest full-grain leather known to man and rip-stop nylon, throw in Ultralon footbeds and deep, cushioned midsoles and you come up with the Danner Kinetic. They are also responsive and agile thanks to them being lightweight. The Danner Kinetic range is available in 6″ and 8″ as well as a Gore-Tex version, also in 6″ and 8″.

Tactical Bags just got even better!

by Lianeh on Oct.07, 2011, under Patrol Store

Why not check out the excellent Op.Zulu Duty Kit Police Bag with it’s great range of features such as a large main compartment and a unique water bottle holder strap. Attached inside of the lid are compartments for phones, stationery, handcuffs and/or a pocket torch, pen/pencil holders and a handy D ring on a short strap for cliping keys and/or a small clip light.

As I pause for breath to tell you more of the Op.Zulu Duty Kit Police Bag’s wide range of features I can also say that it comes with a free Op.Zulu 750ml water bottle which is perfect size to go fit in the handy bottle holder inside of the main compartment.

Now, back to the features (inhale). On the front of this stonking bag there are three compartments handy for storing stuff. It could be for anything really. Two of them are sealed off with velcro flaps and the other is perfect for holding a C or D-Cell torch. On the back there is a padded compartment which is suitable for a slim ring binder or most 15″ laptops.

Not only do you get all this but there are two side compartments which are large enough to fit an iPad/Kindle or a Notebook. The Op.Zulu Duty Kit Police Bag certainly has brought carrying around things to the 21st Century!

The best thing about this bag of all though is the ergonomic handles made of Duraflex which is far better than the nylon inferiors that are also around.

All in all, the Op.Zulu Duty Kit Police Bag is a solid, sound investment. So why not Bag Yourself a Bargain today and get one of these bad boys exclusive to PatrolStore.com

Ten Years On…

by Lianeh on Sep.07, 2011, under Patrol Store

911NeverForgetNew York City, September 11, 2001. It started off just like any other day but ended as a day that would never be forgotten.

Now, 2011 marks the 10th anniversary of the attacks on the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and the downing of Flight 93. It was an event that changed the face of the world forever and one that is reflected in our everyday lives. We promise to never forget the sacrifices that were made that day and to honour all that continue to serve and protect today.

This Sunday, we hope that those of you who received the commemorative 9-11 memorial caps will be wearing them, which were kindly donated to us by 5.11 Tactical for this very reason, and join us to remember our American cousins who were cruelly taken from our world on that fateful day. And the threat to all nations is still there, please stay safe everyone.

Patrol Store will never forget…

British Weather

by Lianeh on Sep.06, 2011, under Patrol Store

Having gotten soaked on my way to work at Patrol Store HQ this morning I thought I would take the time to moan about the great British weather. If there is one country in the world that could have the capability of creating four seasons in one day, that would be Britain. Many times I have stepped out to come to work in the morning unprepared for whatever weather was on it’s way. It’s just deceiving! One minute the skies could be blue, the next minute the heavens could open, and you think to yourself “why does it always rain on me?” (well, it certainly wasn’t because I lied when I was 17).
Working at Patrol Store I see a great number of waterproof coats that go out the door and I wonder why I don’t do the smart thing and invest in one of these. After all, there are plenty to choose from. And what benefits I would get…I could stay warm and dry, then perhaps I wouldn’t need to moan about the weather. With the likes of a Web-Tex Soft Shell Jacket to keep me dry, a 5.11 3-in-1 Parka or even a 5.11 5-in-1 Jacket, I would certainly be making a very good and wise investment if I was to get one of those.
Not only was I soaked from head, it was also to toe. As I was standing at the bus stop getting drenched I couldn’t help thinking that I should be wearing a pair of Lowa Mountain GTX. With the Gore-Tex technology I would certainly have no worries about having wet feet. The benefits of these boots would not only keep my feet warm and dry but they will also keep them comfortable.
