Keep your home safe and secure this Christmas!

With the dark evenings rolling in and Christmas just round the corner it’s no surprise that burglaries increase by up to 20% over the dark winter months!

Keep your home safe & secure this Winter with these following tips:

Keep doors and windows locked

It may sound simple but keep doors and windows locked at all times, even when you are at home. In 30% of all burglaries the thieves don’t even have to break in, they get in through unlocked doors and windows.

Check your doors and windows are in tip top condition

Take a look around your home and make sure all entry points are kept in top condition. Locks and fasteners can become rusty & stiff over the years. Mighton sell a wide range of security products that suit both sash & casement windows & doors.

Keep an eye out for the Secured by Design Logo

Secured by design is a police ran initiative. Secured by Design member company status is awarded to companies producing security products that pass standards and tests nominated by the police service. The standards and related tests must demonstrate the product effectiveness in preventing or reducing crime, usually by resistance to physical attack. Feel confident in the knowledge that the product you have bought has been put through rigorous tests previously and is set to do the job at hand. Keep an eye out for the SBD logo on our security products.

Keep Presents out of View

Although it may look pretty, don’t put your Christmas presents under the tree too early. Burglars have been known to break in and steal ready wrapped gifts from under the tree. Keep them out of sight until Christmas eve/morning.
