Home Security

Dear Resident

We have made it to 2026! Christmas has been and gone and it’s time to make those new years resolutions.  

We visited A LOT of residents in Scarborough in 2025, and a lot of people still leave their front doors unlocked. Burglars are often opportunistic thieves who seek our any opening they can take advantage of, especially doors and windows which are left open.  

This link will take you to our website with lots of advice to keep your home safe, reduce the risk of being burgled and other home security tips.
