Don’t forget the following advice on keeping your property safe from thieves:
Keeping keys safe
- Ensure your keys are kept in a safe place out of sight and well away from your letterbox
- Don’t tag keys so they can be easily identified
- Keep all spare keys in a safe place
- Don’t leave spare keys outside or in a garage or shed
- Consider buying a safe for personal papers, passports and small items of jewellery. This must be secured to the floor or a wall
Security outside your home
- Never leave garages or sheds unlocked, especially if they connect to your property
- Visible burglar alarms and carefully directed security lighting can deter burglars. Make sure alarms stop sounding after 20 minutes and lights don’t disturb your neighbours
