How you can keep your property safe from theft and burglary.

Burglary Dwelling

  • Make sure you shut and lock all windows and doors when you go out or
    go to bed
  • Fit a five lever mortice deadlock to your front and rear doors
  • Fit locks on windows particularly any vulnerable ones
  • Invest in an exterior light
  • When you leave your property during hours of darkness take a minute
    to check that it looks like it does when you are in and use more
    timer switches.
  • Check perimeter security for easy access points and consider
    planting prickly plants to make access more difficult.
  • Consider installing an intruder alarm


Distraction Burglary

  • Remember that you do not have to let any uninvited guest into your
    property
  • Remember the following advice:-
    STOP – Is anyone expected?
    CHAIN – Put the chain on before opening the door
    CHECK – Check the Caller’s ID before opening the door and
    if necessary use a phone book or directory enquiries to
    find the company telephone number
  • People will use any excuse they can in order to gain access to your
    property. They may claim to be from the Utility Companies, Housing
    Associations or perhaps a plain clothes Police officer. Other
    excuses include children loosing balls or an someone claiming to be
    ill and asking for a drink of water.
  • If possible set up a password with your utility company, most
    companies have schemes that will let you do this.


Vehicle Crime

  • Don’t leave valuables such as mobile phones, sat navs etc on display
  • Always lock your vehicle even if only leave it for a minute
  • Make sure your car keys are not easily accessible when your car is
    parked up overnight
  • If you have a garage or a drive please make sure you use them to park
    your car.


Please report anyone or anything suspiscious to the police on 0845 458 0000

Thank you
