Complete Post-Burglary Security Services
Intruders rarely care about the damage they cause. Whether they have smashed a window, snapped your uPVC door lock, or crowbarred a wooden frame, our vans carry everything needed to secure your property on the spot in a single visit.
1. Emergency Boarding Up (24/7)
If an intruder has smashed a glass door, a shopfront window, or a side panel to gain entry, leaving it open to the elements and other opportunists is not an option. We provide heavy-duty, secure boarding-up services. We will temporarily seal the breach with high-strength timber, making the property completely watertight and physically secure until you can arrange for a glazier to replace the glass.
2. Broken Lock Replacements & Upgrades
Burglars often gain entry by destroying the existing locks. We will extract any damaged hardware and immediately install brand-new, high-security replacements. We highly recommend upgrading to 3-Star Anti-Snap Cylinders for uPVC doors and BS3621 British Standard Mortice Locks for wooden doors to guarantee this specific type of break-in cannot happen again.
3. Door Frame & uPVC Mechanism Repairs
If a door has been kicked in or forced open with a crowbar, the internal locking mechanisms (the gearbox and multipoint hooks) are usually shattered. Instead of quoting you for a completely new door, our engineers specialise in repairing and replacing these internal uPVC mechanisms, saving you hundreds of pounds while fully restoring the door’s security.
4. Securing Stolen Keys
If the intruders managed to find your spare keys or stole your car keys from inside the house, your property is still at massive risk. We provide immediate, full-house lock changes to ensure that whoever holds your stolen keys can never use them to get back inside.
