Locks

Ground floor and basement windows are also often targeted by burglars to break in and so need locking shut. Don’t forget about fitting locks on other windows, especially if they are close to drainpipes or any neighbouring
flat roofs.

We can fit key-operated locks to your windows, and we’ll recommend the type that we think is must suitable for your windows, whether the frames are made from wood, aluminium, UPVC or metal. Think also about fixing window bars, which act as another barrier to criminals thinking of breaking
and entering.

Good quality locks may not work as well as you’d like if they are fitted to weak side doors, which may be vulnerable to a physical attack by determined thieves. We can fit surface-mounted or key-operated mortise security bolts to help give your side doors extra protection.

If you discover evidence of a break-in at your workplace, call the police from your mobile phone and wait outside for them to arrive. Criminals may still be on the premises. Staying outside also gives the authorities a better chance of finding usable evidence.

Arrange for any broken windows to be boarded up and for new locks to be fitted. Contact us and we’ll do it for you at a fixed price with no call out charge or hidden costs. It’s important to fit new locks as thieves may return to the site of a break-in - Home Office figures show premises are four times more likely to be hit if they have been broken into before.
