                                 SCHEDULE 13D

          This Amendment No. 3 amends the Statement on Schedule 13D, filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 8, 1999 by SLC Technologies,
Inc. ("SLC") and Berwind Group Partners ("Berwind"), as amended by Amendment No.
1, filed May 10, 2000 by Berwind, and Amendment No. 2, filed May 16, 2000 by SLC
(the "Schedule 13D").  Unless otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms
shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.

     Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety
as follows:

"ITEM 3.  SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

          The source of funds that was used in connection with the Merger
described in Item 4 was borrowings from a syndicate of banks.  SLC received a
financing commitment for $325,000,000 in connection with the Merger from The
Bank of Nova Scotia, PNC Bank, National Association and PNC Capital Markets,
Inc., which commitment was subject to customary conditions.  A copy of this
commitment letter is included as Exhibit 10 to this Statement and is
incorporated by reference herein.

          The source of funds that was used in connection with the MLGA Purchase
described in Item 4 was working capital of Berwind.  The aggregate purchase
price was $12,748,893."

     Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety
as follows:

"ITEM 4.  PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

          On May 2, 2000,  pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger and
Reorganization dated as of September 28, 1999, as amended (the "Merger
Agreement"), SLC merged with and into the Company, with the Company as the
surviving corporation (the "Merger").  In the Merger, SLC's outstanding common
stock was converted into 15,170,640 shares of Company Common Stock.  The
Company's stockholders had the right to elect to receive $36.50 in cash at the
effective time of the Merger for each share of Company Common Stock owned,
subject to the limitation that no more than 50 percent of the total number of
shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective
time of the Merger would be exchanged for cash.  The Company's stockholders
elected to exchange more than 50 percent of the outstanding shares of Company
Common Stock for cash, and the shares to be exchanged will therefore be reduced
on a pro rata basis so that 50 percent of the outstanding shares of Company
Common Stock immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger are exchanged
for cash.  Based on the Company's Press Release dated May 5, 2000, 4,268,296
shares of Company Common Stock were exchanged for an aggregate amount of
$155,792,804.  As a result of the transaction, Berwind had a 78 percent
ownership stake after giving effect to the cash election.

          On June 6, 2000, Berwind purchased 586,156 shares of Company Common
Stock at a price of $21.75 per share from MLGA Fund II, L.P. ("MLGA") in a
privately negotiated transaction (the "MLGA Purchase").  By virtue of the MLGA
Purchase, Berwind acquired all of the Company Common Stock owned by MLGA.  As a
result of the Merger and the MLGA Purchase, and after giving effect to the cash
election, Berwind has a 81 percent ownership stake in the Company.

          The Merger will be treated as a purchase by SLC for accounting
purposes.  The Merger is intended to constitute a tax-free reorganization  under
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, except for shares exchanged for
cash.

                                      -2-
<PAGE>

          Pursuant to the terms of the Merger, as of the effective time of the
Merger, the total number of persons serving on the Board of Directors of the
Company is nine (unless otherwise agreed in writing by the parties hereto prior
to the effective time of the Merger), two of whom are Thomas L. Auth and Perry
J. Lewis and seven of whom have been selected by and at the absolute discretion
of the Board of Directors of SLC.  Thereafter, membership on the Board of
Directors of the Company shall be determined in accordance with a voting
agreement by and among Berwind, Thomas L. Auth and MLGA, dated as of May 2, 2000
(the "Voting Agreement"), the form of which was included as Exhibit 9 to the
Schedule 13D and incorporated by reference herein.  The foregoing description of
the Voting Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text
of the form of the Voting Agreement.  Pursuant to the Voting Agreement, Berwind
will agree, subject to the terms of the Voting Agreement, that until the second
anniversary of the effective time of the Merger, it will vote all shares of
Company Common Stock owned by it for the following individuals as directors of
the Company:  (a) Thomas L. Auth, who will serve as Chairman of the Board of
Directors of the Company, and (b) Perry J. Lewis, but only for so long as he and
certain controlled affiliates collectively own (beneficially and of record) at
least 25% of the shares of Company Common Stock collectively owned by him and
such controlled affiliates immediately prior to the effective time of the
Merger.  By virtue of the MLGA Purchase, Perry J. Lewis and his controlled
affiliates no longer collectively own at least 25% of the Company Common Stock
that they collectively owned immediately prior to the Merger.  As a result, the
Voting Agreement no longer requires Berwind to vote for Perry J. Lewis in
elections for directors of the Company.

          Pursuant to the terms of the Merger, at the effective time of the
Merger, the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company was amended (i) to
change the name of the Company to "Interlogix, Inc.," (ii) to opt out of Section
203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law and (iii) to increase the number of
authorized shares of Company Common Stock to 60,000,000.

          A copy of the Merger Agreement was included as Exhibit 2 to the
Schedule 13D and is incorporated by reference herein. The foregoing description
of the Merger Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full
text of the Merger Agreement.

          Although the Reporting Person has no specific plan or proposal to
acquire or dispose of shares of Company Common Stock, the Reporting Person at
any time and from time to time may acquire additional shares of Company Common
Stock or dispose of any or all of its shares depending upon an ongoing
evaluation of the investment in the Company, prevailing market conditions, other
investment opportunities, liquidity requirements of the Reporting Person and/or
other investment considerations.  The Reporting Person has not made a
determination regarding a maximum or minimum number of shares of Company Common
Stock which it may hold at any point in time.

          Also, the Reporting Person may engage in communications with one or
more stockholders of the Company, one or more officers of the Company and/or one
or more members of the board of directors of the Company regarding the Company,
including but not limited to its operations.

          Except to the extent the foregoing may be deemed a plan or proposal,
the Reporting Person has no plans or proposals which relate to, or could result
in, any of the matters referred to in paragraphs (a) through (j), inclusive, of
the instructions to Item 4 of Schedule 13D.  The Reporting Person may, at any
time and from time to time, review or reconsider its position and/or change its
purpose and/or formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto."

     Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety
as follows:

                                      -3-

"ITEM 5.  INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

          Under the definition of "beneficial ownership" as set forth in Rule
13d-3 under the Exchange Act, Berwind beneficially owns 15,756,796 shares of
Company Common Stock acquired by it in connection with the Merger and the MLGA
Purchase.  The Merger occurred on May 2, 2000, and at the effective time of the
Merger, the Voting Support Agreement terminated.  The Berwind Trusts are general
partners of Berwind, and the Berwind Trusts and their trustees may be deemed to
have indirect beneficial ownership of any Company Common Stock owned by Berwind.
Neither the filing of this Statement nor any of its contents shall be deemed to
constitute an admission that any of the foregoing persons is the beneficial
owner of the Company Common Stock referred to in this Item for purposes of
Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act or any other purpose.

          Except as disclosed in this Statement, to the best of the Reporting
Person's knowledge, none of the persons named in Item 2 hereof or on Schedule A
hereto beneficially owns any shares of Company Common Stock, nor have any
transactions in Company Common Stock been effected during the past 60 days by
the Reporting Person or, to the best knowledge of the Reporting Person, by any
of the persons named in Item 2 hereof or on Schedule A hereto.  In addition, no
other person is known by the Reporting Person to have the right to receive or
the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale
of, the securities covered by this Statement."
