Lockwood homes are strong and ductile, engineered to withstand earthquakes and tropical cyclones, with the flexibility to handle wide temperature ranges. Lockwood’s strength shone through in the Christchurch and Kaikoura earthquakes, with almost no structural damage reported. In fact, many families actively sought out Lockwood homes to shelter their families. “Unlike the rest of the houses… we have no damage at all”, “probably the safest house I’d want to be in in an earthquake” – survivors of the 2011 Christchurch earthquake.
