How we secure your property
We use tried-and-tested methods designed to protect your property quickly while keeping disruption to a minimum.
- Initial safety check: assess hazards (broken glass, unstable frames, electrical risks) and clear debris safely.
- Materials: exterior-grade plywood or OSB board, chosen to suit the opening — commonly 9mm–12mm for windows and heavier boards for larger openings. For higher-risk sites we can supply temporary steel doors or steel security screens.
- Fixings: anti-tamper fixings designed so they can’t be easily removed from outside; coach bolts or security screws as required.
- Non-destructive first: we secure frames and glazing without altering original fixtures wherever possible. If a frame is structurally unsafe (e.g., severe kick-in or impact) we explain why replacement or more intrusive work is required.
- Insurance-ready evidence: time-stamped photos, an itemised invoice and a simple work statement we issue on completion — keep any police reference number to support your claim.
All work is carried out to be tidy and reversible where possible; workmanship is backed by our guarantee and public liability insurance, and our technicians are DBS-checked.
