Home Security Headingley – 247Locksmiths
Locksmith specialists for home security Headingley – At 247Locksmiths Leeds we take home security very seriously and have put together the following points to maximise your safety at home: Home Security Mistakes That Could Cost You Money!
- If your front and back doors are not secure, then neither is your home, make sure you are fitted with a British Standard PAS24-1, which we supply to all our customers.
- Patio doors are especially vulnerable to break in. We can fit new high security locks (anti-snap locks) and/or additional security bolts to stop doors being lifted or forced entry.
- Your letterbox should be at least 16 inches away from any locks. Burglars can put their hands or gadgets in through the letterbox to try the latches inside. We can advise and supply what you need to prevent this.

This locks automatically when the door is closed and can be opened without a key from the inside.

When the door is closed this locks automatically and is more secure than other types of rim lock. It needs a key to open it from both the inside and outside and should meet British Standard BS3621.

Home Security Is The Best Way To Reduce your chances Of Being Another Victim Of Burglary.
Improving your home security doesn’t have to be a daunting or expensive undertaking. The good news is that even small changes can make a big difference in deterring potential burglars. While the thought of spending money on security measures might seem overwhelming, it’s a wise and valuable investment in the long run. Think of it not as an expense, but as a protective shield for your family and possessions.
These improvements, whether simple or more comprehensive, offer peace of mind and contribute to a greater sense of security within your home. Furthermore, unlike fleeting purchases, security measures offer lasting benefits. They stand guard day and night, providing continuous protection for years to come.
Beyond the immediate security benefits, these improvements can also enhance the value of your property. Potential buyers often look for signs of a well-maintained and secure home, making your investment in security a smart financial move as well.
So, while the initial outlay might seem significant, the long-term return in terms of security, peace of mind, and potential property value makes it a worthwhile endeavour.
