HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL
Translating a Swiss lease agreement. The phrase is an extract from an article stipulating the conditions under which a lease can be cancelled by a Landlord. Is there a concise English legalese equivalent?
As always, thanks in advance for all suggestions.
"Lorsque le locataire qui a commandé des travaux ne fournit pas au bailleur les sûretés suffisantes pour éviter l’inscription d’une hypothèque des artisans et des entrepreneurs."

mechanic's lien
exactly that: when the work done on a property is unpaid, those that did it have a "mechanic's lien" on the property--the equivalent of a first mortgage that must be paid before the property can change hands.

legal charge by the contractors and tradesmen
When the tenant who ordered works fails to provide the lessor with sufficient guarantees to prevent the registration of a legal charge (against the mortgage) by the contractors and tradesmen.
<I>Inscrition d'une hypothèque (judiciaire)<I/> : Registration of a legal charge (against a mortgage).
'The hypothèque judiciaire<I/> which, save that it constitutes a legal and not an equitable charge, may be seen as the counterpart of a High Court judgement.' (Henry Dyson, French Property and Inheritance Law, pp. 119-120, see link below).

: inscription = registration. A lien cannot be registered, even over co. shares, either in the UK or the US.

: you haven't dealt with the inscription/registration point and distinction between a lien in any Common Law jurisdiction and a legal charge.
