Your Home Security
Garages & Sheds
Garages and sheds are often full of expensive tools to steal or use to break into the house.
Do not leave a garage or garden shed unlocked, especially if it has a connecting door to the house.
- Fit strong padlocks and hardware to shed and garage doors,
making sure that the doors are solid enough not to be kicked in.
- Fit locks or bars to windows.
- Lock ladders inside your garage or shed.
- Consider lockable steel boxes or anchor posts fitted to the
floor to secure tools and equipment.
- Gardens tools and machinery should be permanently marked with your postcode.
