As the warm weather beckons us outdoors, we often forget that burglars seize this opportunity to exploit our relaxed approach to home security. It is crucial to remain cautious and take proactive measures to safeguard our homes and loved ones.

Whether you're tending to the garden or enjoying a BBQ on the patio, always ensure all doors and windows out of sight are securely locked.

Going out to enjoy the good weather? Don't be tempted to keep your windows open. Make sure all windows and doors are locked and secure to prevent unauthorised access and potential break-ins.

Keep shrubs and bushes near windows trimmed to eliminate potential hiding spots for intruders who may try to slip in through an unattended open window whilst you’re enjoying the sun in the garden.

When at home on hot days, open windows for ventilation, securing windows and doors behind you when you leave the room. Don’t leave open windows unattended.

If possible Invest in a reliable smart security system with alarms, surveillance, cameras, and motion sensors to deter intruders and monitor your property remotely. The perfect solution if you're planning a trip or holiday to enjoy the warm weather.
