Opportunistic thieves love this time of the year, much like the rest of us. Thieves simply walk down any street, like a shopper in a supermarket aisle, selecting and taking what they want, when they want. Wallets, purses, car keys will suddenly sprout legs and simply hop out and disappear through your slightly open window. Most criminals will access your home via two main entry points : doors or windows.

There is a simple and inexpensive way to protect your property, the Glass Guard Window Alarm will detect any vibration then sound off an impressive 130 Db alarm alerting you that someone is trying to tamper with your windows.

Remember, Spring is all about rebirth, life, growth and change. Let’s start changing the way we protect our property and valuables. Don’t give thief’s a window of opportunity in your neighbourhood.

Moving from room-to-room, sometimes trashing everything in their path but most importantly – infringing your personal space.

Imagine, if you could stop them at the breaking-of-entry point, confide them to just one room. Sure, it would be better to keep them out altogether, however, that can be tough, when you consider every situation that might arise from someone entering your office space illegaly.

But, to halt them, make sure they cannot progress to the next room – so damage is kept to a minimal – is a smart piece of secondary security.

The Mortice Security Door Bolt is an ideal office security addition, which will keep your internal doors securely closed and can only be opened by a key holder. The Mortice security door bolt is easily fitted, so you can place it anywhere on your doors and as the lock is only seen from one side the thief has no idea where the lock is situated so again adding that extra security to your office.

By using a Mortice security door bolt is highly recommended by the Police for additional security and it also gives you the peace of mind that if they do get in – they ain’t getting very far.

What about protecting our possessions like motorbikes and cycles – which are targetted often because they are seen as an easy choice for thieves?

The use of a chain will deter some thieves but not all of them, if you really want to deter the most persistent thieves then try the Rhino Quadlink case Hardened security Chain, this 1.5 metre long hardened steel chain which is protected in it’s own sleeve and has a high resistance to bolt cutters and hacksaws.

What’s to stop someone simply walking off with your bike? You really need somewhere to anchor your chain too; the Telescopic Ground Anchor is the ideal security device and this steel constructed post which submerges over 300mm into the ground is the ideal anchorage point for your chain to fasten too.

Remember, most theft is opportunistic, if you make it hard for them be securing your property better, they’ll think twice before they try to steal something that belongs to you.

This is very disturbing knowing that someone has been in your personal space and away with your hard earned possessions, this is not including the hassle of contacting the Police then there’s the insurance, again adding money to your premiums, more expense that you don’t need in this economic climate.

What cost would you place on the contents of your shed, tool box or your bike? £500, £1000 even more? What if you could lock your possessions with a padlock made from 10mm hardened steel which when moved or tampered with emits a deafening 110dB siren?

The Chaperone® Siren Padlock Alarm is the perfect portable security device. No matter if your down the shops with your favourite bike – simply lock it up and if anyone attempts to tamper with it will set off the alarm so powerful which is not only painful to the ears, but draws attention to the theft taken place. The Chaperone® Siren Padlock Alarm can be used as normal padlock without the alarm if required.
