London, UK – Most Londoners are unaware that forceful breaking and entering by criminals stem from a number of factors. Perpetrators often prepare through thorough, meticulous planning relying on a degree of negligence on the part of the property owners. Police in London recommend using a professional locksmith to board up after a crime. In order to help London residents out with this, Locked-out LockSmiths (www.lockedout-locksmiths.co.uk) has just published a new blog post authored by Brendan Connolly entitled 'Boarding Up? Get a Reliable London Locksmith, Police Officers Advise'.
The article references a series of articles published on the the police officers’ association website, 'Secured by Design' which emphasizes the opportunistic nature of these crimes.
“A burglar only needs to spot an open window or an unlocked door or gate to make their move,” states the article series. “If you think your security looks poor then so will a burglar. Burglars will select their targets when they think they have the best opportunity to carry out the crime undetected, with the smallest number of obstacles, such as unoccupied or insecure homes and buildings. ”
The article relates that 'The police association added that good security need not cost much; homeowners only have to determine which high-reliability products fit their budget. Installation can be performed by a specialist like a 24-hour locksmith in London—such as a professional from Lockedout Locksmith’.
“Windows are vulnerable to breakage caused by attempts at forceful entry,” stated Connolly further, “Secured by Design noted that if possible, any type of window—living room, kitchen, bathroom, or skylight, whether made of laminated glass or ordinary components—should be equipped with a lock and boarded up with durable materials. This is to prevent a would-be burglar from squeezing himself indoors using his head and shoulders.”
