And in no particular order, the top 10 burglar deterrents are? <\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A well-known insurance\ncompany recently published a list of the ten most effective burglar deterrents\nas voted for by the burglars whom they had interviewed as part of their survey\n\u2013 the list is \u2013 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. CCTV camera
\n2. Sound of a barking dog
\n3. Strong, heavy doors
\n4. TV that has been switched on
\n5. Locked UPVC windows
\n6. Cars parked on driveway
\n7. Overlooking property
\n8. Surrounding fences
\n9. Gates outside the property
\n10. Motion-activated security lights<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We use the phrase \u201cin no particular order\u201d in our header with caution because although we do not disagree that all of the above are effective we can think of three glaring omissions (High quality secure door locks, a siren operated burglar alarm and having lights set on a timer in your home when you are out) and we would question the order in which they are placed but of course we have vested interests as here at Global Door we sell solid secure doors. Our list would be slightly different \u2013<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 CCTV\ncamera  as available from our sister\ncompany Eurosuecure see – https:\/\/www.euro-secure.com\/product-category\/outdoor\/cctv\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

2 Strong durable Composite\nDoor with either\na hardwood core (Premium range)<\/a> or a\npolyurethane foam core, both are available in dozens of styles and colours and  both are excellent solid doors particularly\nwhen complimented by a high quality secure door lock such as the  Ultion locking system<\/a> (the most secure available for the domestic market fitted as standard)\nall as available from ourselves Global Door<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

3 Motion activated security\nlights as available from our sister company Eurosecure see – https:\/\/www.euro-secure.com\/product\/ring-floodlight-camera\/<\/a> – Protect your home with the world\u2019s only\nmotion-activated security camera with built-in floodlights, a siren alarm and\ntwo-way audio, so you can see, hear and speak to anyone on your property from\nanywhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4 A Siren operated burglar alarm as available\nfrom our sister company Eurosecure see \u2013 https:\/\/www.euro-secure.com\/product\/intruder-alarm-kit\/<\/a> one of our many such intruder alarm kits\navailable as an alternative to (3) above <\/p>\n\n\n\n

5 Leaving a\nTV or lights on using a timer switch or a home automation Power Switch allows\nyou to remotely turn household appliances such as a lamp or radio on and off\nusing your SmartPhone available as part of our Smart home alarm view and\ncontrol kit see https:\/\/www.euro-secure.com\/product\/smart-home-alarm-view-control-kit\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

6 Locked windows -more burglaries than you would expect to occur because of open windows \u2013 if you do not lock them you could lose more than you anticipate <\/p>\n\n\n\n

7 Barking dog \u2013 available from your local pet\nshop<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8 Car parked on the drive \u2013 available from a\nvehicle stockist near you<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9 Don\u2019t advertise your absence on social media \u2013\nburglars read it too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For 10 any of being overlooked by the surrounding property, surrounding fences, gates outside the property or even lack of shrubbery \/hiding places in your garden, leaving accessible items (ladders, wheelie bins or anything you can climb upon in your garden) would be worth considering <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As Police figures show that domestic burglary in\nEngland and Wales has gone up by 32% in the last 12 months, and 28% of\nhouseholds took no measures to protect their home from burglary it shows it can\nhappen to anyone. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The cost of a burglary is both financial and\nemotional (insecurity \/ anxiety etc) plus your insurance cover going forward is\nlikely to reflect the burglary with an increase in premium<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A visit to our Global Door<\/a> web site and that of our sister company Eurosecure<\/a> and the purchase of a new door and\/or one of the many alarm may be just the deterrent you need to take you off the local burglars’ appointment list. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
