Whilst your home insurance covers the financial loss you
suffer as a result of a break-in, nothing can protect you from the emotional
trauma and shock suffered when a stranger ransacks your home and rummages
through your belongings. However, there is a lot you can do to help prevent it
from happening in the first place.
All External Doors
Fit five-lever mortice deadlocks (or their equivalent) to
all external doors and you should lock these doors even if you are out for just
a short time.
All Accessible Windows
A large number of break-ins occur through windows. Fit
security locks to all accessible windows, i.e. those on the ground floor or
near any drainpipes of flat roofs.
Going Out at Night
When you go out for the evening, it's a good idea to draw
the curtains and leave a light on in the living room or bedroom. Leaving the
hall light on is not a good deterrent. Keep your garage/garden shed locked. Do
not leave garden implements, especially ladders, lying around. They could help
a thief gain access to your home.
