Twickenham and Teddington Locksmiths – reliable, professional service from local locksmiths – where reputation counts.
Firstly, it is important to secure your home from the front. When thinking about garden security, it is easy to overlook the front garden, drives and pathways but these are equally important. Our top tip here is to lay gravel on your drive or pathway. This will act as a deterrent to potential burglars as the noise from the gravel can act as an alert that someone is approaching the house.
If you have a gate or fence at the front of your house, this should ideally be smaller than 4ft so that passers-by can still see your house and therefore can be witness to and alert authorities if there is anyone acting suspiciously. Further, if there is a access point to your garden at the side of your house, consider investing in a gate here to make access harder and to act as a deterrent.
