Protecting your property against vandalism 🏡

Protecting your property against vandalism 🏡

Vandalism is where property is maliciously destroyed or damaged, often without theft being involved.

Help protect your property with these tips:

🏡Avoid high front hedges/walls - keep them under 1 metre so neighbours can see your property

🏡Install lights around the property

🏡Add security film to windows to strengthen the glass

🏡Use anti‑graffiti coatings on white walls

🏡Mark your property line with low fences, hedges or flower beds - avoid rockeries or large stones that can be used as weapons

🏡Make ledges and low walls “uninviting” to sit on - use planters with prickly plants

🏡Keep it tidy - a neat home discourages trespassers

🏡Don’t leave rubbish, ladders, bins, or tools out - they can be used to break in
