Garage break

If you have a burglar alarm at home, ensure it extends to cover the garage too.

Add external lighting to cover the garage door.

If your garage has windows, keep these closed and locked

Additional mortice locks can be added to ‘up and over’ garage doors to improve security

If you are considering replacing your existing garage door for a higher security door, check out the list of police approved suppliers here: Secured by Design
