Construction technology and work tools
The technology available for construction, and the toolkits of builders, construction workers, locksmiths, professional installers and DIY-enthusiasts, are ever expanding. If you have invented a new or improved product, a patent can play an important role in helping you to protect it by allowing you to secure a place in the market without cheap knockoffs challenging your market share.
Many inventions relating to construction technology and work tools are mechanical in nature, often involving new shapes and arrangements of existing components that enable better performance. As a result, although these ideas can be highly innovative, proving to a patent office that the idea is inventive – a condition for patentability – can sometimes be challenging and require expert assistance and guidance.
At Dolleymores, our expert patent attorneys have extensive experience patenting construction technology and work tools, and are accustomed to the careful patent drafting and meticulous legal argumentation required to demonstrate inventiveness and secure the protection you need. A few examples of the technology areas we have worked in include:
- Drill bits.
- Window lock release kits.
- Door installation jigs.
- Safety harnesses for rooftop construction workers.
- Concrete raft shuttering.
