Security Services in the Exmouth Area
We all hope that nothing happens to us, but the worst feeling in the world is the “if only I’d........”. Your home is probably your greatest tradable asset, and it makes sense to think about security in a clear and sensible way. You don’t need to employ a consultant to use common sense and in the main that’s all you will probably need.
Security of your home in Exmouth needs answers to the following questions:
Q: Is my home physically secure?
Q: Are there any parts of it which are less secure?
Q: What happens when I’m away?
Q: What happens if I have a break in?
Physical Security in Exmouth:
 Do a walkabout and look at all points of entry: doors, windows, patio doors etc. Are the locks good enough? At Exmouth Locksmiths we will advise on the types of locks you should be fitting to provide a good level of security for the Exmouth area. Remember if you are insured, it’s probable that the insurance stipulates a minimum level of lock, and below this you are not covered.
Windows are particularly vulnerable, as are patio doors. Take advise and make sure that these areas are well covered and upto the level specified on your household insurance.
When considering security in Exmouth, some parts of your home may be less secure than others and may well be out of sight, and will therefore be very attractive to burglars. Pay particular attention to these areas, and make them less attractive.
When I’m Away?
Don’t leave your plans to the last minute. Form a relationship with your neighbours and help each other. tell them in plenty of time or they may be away at the same time! Tell the police. Stop items like milk and papers piling up which give the game away.
I’ve Had a Break In
If a burglar is determined to get in, he will. Remember a pane of glass is only a few mm thick and a brick soon overcomes all the best locks in the world! So what now?
Before you get burgled make an inventory of all of your contents and back this up with colour photos, easy with a digital camera if you have one. Then keep this list safe! Keep a copy of it in a safe position and if possible give a copy to a relative for safe keeping. This will simplify life considerable when you come to deal with the Insurance Company.
