How To Prevent Burglars From Reaching Your Home
The word burglary is likely to make any property owner shudder a little, and why wouldn’t it? You want to keep your family / employees, your property and your valuables safe. But how can you prevent burglars before they even reach your building?
Here’s how:
Install CCTV, exterior detectors or a combination of both.
Exterior motion detection is the first port of call for protecting your home, and is essential for preventing unwanted entry. Installing external detection systems can significantly reduce the risk of unwanted access to your home.
We recommend installing detection in the following places:
Property paths and walkways
Walkways and paths are common areas that will be utilised by intruders to find points of entry to your property. Installing detection along walkways and paths will ensure you are notified before a potential break-in.
Home entrances
Home entrances such as windows and doors are seen as weak points of your home and are commonly used to gain entry. Install detection to cover these areas and be notified when someone is outside your home.
Open areas such as pools and gardens
Open garden areas of a property can provide hiding spots for potential intruders. You can catch people before they reach your home by installing detection in these areas.
Garages and sheds
Tools and ladders are commonly stored in garages and sheds. It is essential to install motion detectors in these areas to avoid arming potential intruders with equipment that they can use to enter your property.
We can provide detection installations that can be configured to work with your existing alarm system or be a completely bespoke installation tailored to your requirements. Add that extra layer of protection to your home today!
Lock gates and hide tools and ladders
As previously mentioned, garages and sheds are especially important to protect. The first step in ensuring your garage or shed is protected from intruders is installing secure locks on entry points to these areas. Inside garages and sheds, we recommend installing lockable tool cupboards, which adds another layer of protection and prevents intruders from gaining access to your tools.
Additionally, we can supply and install alarm systems that are suitable for sheds and garages.
Install a new siren
As well as audibly notifying you when an intruder enters your perimeter, installing a new siren can act as a visual deterrent. Potential intruders are put off when they see a new siren and often decide not to attempt access to a property with obvious up to date security measures in place.
At Linc Secure, we can supply and install high quality sirens combined with a full service of your existing systems.
