Dear Resident Many people donβt secure their shed or garage in the same way they do their homes - often using an easy-to-break lock or padlock to protect valuable contents such as a car, bike or lawnmower. An opportunistic burglar will try a shed or garage first because they can find the tools they need to break into the main house. Tips to keeping your property safe: Think like a thief - Take a look at your shed and consider how you would break in, check doors, windows and hinges. Alarm it! - Consider a battery-operated shed alarm Lock it - Donβt give them the opportunity or the tools to commit a crime. Lock everything away securely. Tools can be locked inside a locker or box or secured with a chain. Hide it - Itβs always worth draping an old sheet or blanket over the top of mowers or bikes to keep them covered from view. Mark it - Property marking your items is advisable and some tools can be painted with your name or postcode. Forensic marking is also an option. For more security advice visit: | ||||
