What can I do to protect my property against burglary? There are several simple steps you can take to reduce your risk of burglary:
🚪 Close and lock your doors and windows when you go out, even if you are just in the garden 🚨 Fit a burglar alarm and test it frequently 🔐 Where possible, fit dead locks to the doors and don’t leave the keys where they can be seen or reached through the letter box 💡 Install security lights 💡Leave a light on in a room and draw the curtains when you go out at night 🏡 Buy home insurance. It’s cheaper than paying out to replace any stolen possessions.
Your shed, garage or outbuilding could also be a target for criminals. These tips will help you to secure your valuable items: · 🏚️ Make sure all outbuildings are in good condition and if they aren’t, don’t leave valuable items inside 🔐 Use good quality padlocks with covers so they cannot be easily cut off 🛠️ Never leave tools or ladders lying around in the garden 🏚️ Make sure side gates/sheds are locked and keep boundary fences, walls and gates in good repair 📸 Take photographs of valuable property so that if the police recover it after a burglary, it will be proof that they are yours
