Security Tip of the Week
Protect your property against vandalism
Vandalism involves the intentional damage or destruction of property, often without theft. To deter vandals, it’s crucial to keep your property visible by maintaining low hedges and installing dusk-to-dawn lighting with vandal-proof casings. Establish clear boundaries using fences or landscaping, but avoid rocks that could be used as weapons. Protect vulnerable areas like windows with thorny bushes, security film, and anti-graffiti coatings. Make your property less inviting by avoiding features that encourage loitering, and secure fences with trellises that deter climbing. Lastly, keep the area tidy—clutter and mess can attract unwanted attention and invite further damage.
