When you need this

Common reasons customers in Raynes Park call us include:

Burglary or forced entry (ground‑floor flats and houses)
Vandalism and smashed shopfronts on Grand Drive
Storm damage and fallen glazing around Cannon Hill Common
Accidental impact to windows or doors (vehicles, delivery incidents)
Securing vacant or void properties while repairs or insurance are arranged

We cover emergency boarding up, emergency property securing, same‑day boarding up and out‑of‑hours boarding up for domestic and commercial properties in KT3.

How we secure your property

We follow a clear, non‑destructive-first approach and only use more invasive methods when the fabric of the building or safety requires it.

Our typical steps:

Quick assessment on arrival (safety first: glass hazards, electrics, unstable frames).
Temporary weatherproof boarding using plywood or OSB (we use 9–18mm board depending on opening size and location — thicker boards for large shopfronts and external doors).
Anti‑tamper fixings to prevent easy removal from outside.
Where required, temporary steel doors or Sitex‑style security screens for longer‑term or high‑risk sites.
Time‑stamped photos, an itemised invoice and a short work statement for insurers and police records.

Materials and methods

Window boarding: 9–12mm exterior plywood or OSB for standard windows; neat cut‑outs for vents where safe.
Door boarding: robust 18mm plywood or steel temporary doors for secure access points.
Fixings: coach screws and anti‑tamper bolts that are designed so they can’t be removed from the outside.
Non‑destructive approach: we fit boards to existing frames wherever possible. If a frame is unsafe (for example after a kick‑in) we will explain why a more substantial temporary door or repair is needed.

We can also arrange a board & glaze option with trusted glazing partners when same‑day re‑glazing is required.

We use non‑destructive securing wherever possible and use the existing frames for fixings. If a frame is unsafe or already badly damaged we’ll explain why a more substantial temporary door or repair is needed before proceeding.

We typically use 9–12mm exterior plywood or OSB for windows and up to 18mm plywood or temporary steel doors for doors and large shopfronts. All fixings are anti‑tamper where appropriate.

Can you provide paperwork for my insurance claim?

Yes — we supply time‑stamped photos, an itemised invoice and a short work statement. Please keep any police reference number and forward documentation to your insurer.

Do you board shopfronts and commercial premises?

Yes. We cover retail and commercial properties in Raynes Park (Grand Drive and surrounding parades) and can provide temporary steel doors or security screens for longer‑term protection. See our shopfront boarding service for more detail.
