Longer and Darker Nights

In the autumn, the clocks go back, and it starts to get darker a lot sooner. Of course, darkness is a housebreaker’s best friend. Surprisingly,  break-in statistics tend to score even higher during the autumn period than December. Even though December is a highest-risk month for a property, due to the holidays season. However seeing retractable window and door security grilles on a home, thieves are most likely to simply move on. They won’t even try that house. Security grilles make their job way too complicated and loud, to risk getting caught trying to cut through sturdy metal grilles.

Economic and Political Uncertainty

Darker nights in the autumn also coupled with the energy crisis, and still quite adverse economic environment is likely to spike property crime rates even further. Energy prices, food and other commodity prices have seen significant increases in recent months. Furthermore the political scene also remains uncertain, with the ongoing Russian war. This further weakens an already uncertain economy. It also further deteriorates peoples’ sense of security. This can only mean one thing. People who are desperate, are even more desperate in times like this. 

Retractable Security Grilles

Retractable window and door security grilles are still considered the most effective preventative security measure against break-ins. Contrary to modern security cameras and alarm systems, concertina security grilles actually prevent and stop burglars entering a home. Installing additional layers of sturdy physical barriers at each potential entry point to a house, have always proved to be the ultimate solution preventing unwanted visitors.

In a recent report by well known insurer NFU mutual, countryside crime rates were looked at. They have found that since the onset of the cost of living crisis, rural crime rates have seen an increase compared to last year. With everyone becoming more desperate, thieves are also on the look out for any opportunities to make up for the rising cost of living. 

This tendency is not only present in agriculture, but also in businesses, and homes alike. Forecasts for the winter season are no more reassuring either unfortunately. Police are preparing for a rather intensive season with the darker nights drawing in rather soon. 

Security Grilles Preventing Burglary

The one and most effective solution in preventing a home or business being targeted by intruders is installing security grilles to the doors and windows of the property. This physical barrier will prevent them from being able to enter the house. Sliding security grilles will not only deter any attempt, but also pose a physical hurdle that thieves will want to avoid.

One example of widely targeted type of trade is the Asian jewellery business interestingly. Gold is obviously highly valued in every country and every culture, but in Asian communities owning gold tends to be regarded especially iconic. Asian homes and Asian jewellery shops are therefore often more at risk of being broken into, without high security systems in place.

The Key Role of Office Security Grilles

Summer months tend to represent high risk for businesses, when employees let their guards down, everyone is either on holiday, or are looking forward to their much deserved holidays, windows remain wide open for fresh air ventilation for much of the day. This may provide great insight into ground floor businesses for cunning eyes, of anything thats worth coming back for.

Office security grilles not only provide physical barrier when someone tries to break in, they are also a very efficient deterrent. A thief is likely to simply skip a property with security grilles on, as it’s too difficult to break into. Expandable security grilles can also be used safely with doors and windows open for fresh air ventilation.
