We are entering a busy time of year for thieves. It is important to take home security seriously throughout the year but we need to be on our guard even more at this time of year.
Halloween finds many of us out and about with our children “trick or treating” leaving our properties empty. If you have any issues with your home security now is the time to address it. A back door that cannot be adequately locked due to a badly fitting lock or warped frame? A front door that only has a Yale lock and not a deadlock? Windows that do not close property let alone possess the ability to be locked?
UK Locks and Alarms are quality locksmiths offering a professional lock fitting service across the North West to add or upgrade existing locks. Remember thieves have an ideal excuse to knock and see if anyone is at home. Leave a light on and ideally the television to create the illusion someone is home. Close your curtains or blinds and it’s a good idea to use a door security chain to allow the caller to be seen before the door is opened wide.
Halloween is closely followed by Bonfire night. It is becoming increasingly popular to attend organised events for safety reasons as opposed to hosting a private display in the back garden. This event sees people of all ages leaving houses unattended for several hours at a time. It is always a popular time for burglars.
Household security should be top of your list all year around. Many people have inadequate security provisions with a high proportion of these people not even realising it. With free, no obligation quotations and all work guaranteed we can advise you on providing good home security. Services include fitting good quality door and window locks to comply with the latest stipulations from insurance policies.
