Whilst we don’t want to worry you, Home Office statistics state that people who have just moved home are nearly twice as likely to have their home burgled.
You are almost twice as likely to be burgled in the first 12 months of moving in as someone who has lived in their home for over 5 years.
Lock snapping is fast becoming burglars’ method of choice all over the country. It is quick easy and quite often there is no smashing of glass or breaking of doors.
As you would expect jewellery, cash, computers and car keys are top of the list when it comes to break ins.
For obvious reasons we are not going to state how lock snapping is done except to say it is quick and easy.
With this in mind, you should seriously consider an upgrade to ABS 3* ts007 euro cylinders on your upvc or composite doors – the most effective deterrent on the market today.
ABS cylinders meet police preferred specifications and have also been accredited by secured by design.
On top of this almost 1 million houses will change hands this year and most house buyers will not change their locks or are unaware someone else has a spare key to their home. If you fall into this category, changing locks really is a must.
We can make the changes easily, with the minimum of disruption for added protection and peace of mind.
We can upgrade front and back doors with 2 X 3* ts007 ABS cylinders ‘key on key’ for £180.00 or ‘key and turn’ for £192.00.
(* this is only £55 more than standard cylinders which snap!)
