The Christmas season has only just begun and we are already seeing a huge rise in both residential and commercial burglaries around the area. Don't make your property vulnerable - keep lights on, windows and gates locked, and use alarms. Force is not required in many burglaries due to doors and windows having been left open.
This is slightly worrying: "Head of the National Police Chief’s Council, Sara Thornton, has announced that due to budgetary cuts, burglaries may no longer be attended by police. With the rise in more serious crimes, these have been given more priority in light of budgetary concerns."

With reports of burglary appearing to be on the rise, please take a moment to read the tips provided by Surrey Police on how to keep your property secure.

It is highly recommended to ensure all first floor windows near (or accessible from) a flat roof have locks - and you use them!
Use high quality strong locks on sheds and garages to protect your garden equipment, bikes and other valuables. Tools sitting around can be used to help a burglar gain access.
If you are rushing out the door late for an appointment and you notice you've left an upstairs window open, don't assume it'll be OK to leave it because you will be back shortly. It's worth taking that extra minute to close and lock the window compared to the trauma and everything that comes with it after a break-in. An insurance company may not even pay out if they find out the window was left open while the property was unattended.
A UPVC door is not locked simply by lifting the handle. The handle can be lowered from the outside which retracts the hooks and/or bolts that come out of the strip in the door. You must use a key to lock a UPVC door. Check your door is locked with a key whenever you go to bed.
If you have a wooden front door with a 5-lever mortice deadlock, use it! Don't just rely on your Yale lock. First of all your door is not as secure as it should be, which makes it easier for a burglar to break in. Secondly, in the event of a burglary, your insurance company may not pay out if the 5-lever British Standard insurance approved lock you claimed you had was not used.
If you have a UPVC door and you are struggling to engage the locking hooks and /or bolts when you raise the handle or attempt to turn the key, it is more than likely that your door is simply out of line. This can happen over time or due to a change in the weather. Often we can make adjustments to the door for you so that it all operates smoothly once again.
Does your lock feel tight? If a key is not turning smoothly in the lock and you are putting in too much effort then something is wrong. Call us to check this out for you before it's too late. Fixing or adjusting a lock early is much cheaper than replacing a damaged lock beyond repair. Also you don't want to be locked out in the rain!
