6 easy steps to secure your home

We have put together a list of 6 steps that you can take to protect and secure your home against the threat of burglary.

1) Secure your doors

34% of break-ins happen through the front door. When choosing a new front door make sure you choose a composite door with a solid timber core such as the Solidor.

2) Use the best possible locks

Fitting the best locks possible to both your windows and doors make them nearly impossible to burgle. We offer £5,000 if somebody breaks in via your window locks

3) Sturdy Fencing

A strong and intact windproof fence defends the outer parameter of your property from potential intruders.
Bonus: Use thorny bushes next to your fence to deter intruders.

4) Safe and secure windows 

Window security has come along leaps and bounds over the last decade or so with multi-point locking systems and internally glazed units.  

5) CCTV

A good CCTV system allows you to constantly monitor your property and valuables. 
It can also act as a strong deterrent.

6) Out of sight, out of mind

Arguably the most important piece of advice we can give you about securing your home is to keep your valuables out of sight and away from windows and doors.
