How We Secure Your Property
Our approach is thorough, tidy and designed to protect your frames and finishes.
- Make-safe assessment
- We assess glazing, frames and structure to plan the safest, most secure solution.
- We prioritise non-destructive securing wherever possible; exceptions only when structural damage or safety requires otherwise.
- Materials matched to the risk
- We carry OSB and plywood boarding (typically 11–18 mm thickness) to suit opening size and risk level.
- Boards are cut to fit the opening precisely and fixed from the inside where possible to avoid external tampering.
- Anti-tamper fixings
- We use anti-tamper fixings designed so they can’t be easily removed from the outside.
- On commercial frontages, we may use additional through-bolt or batten methods to maximise strength.
- Temporary steel doors and security screens (when needed)
- If the door is compromised, a temporary steel door can restore secure access for you and authorised users.
- For longer-term empty properties, we can deploy steel security screens (Sitex-style/anti-vandal) to secure empty property while allowing ventilation.
- Weatherproofing and clean-up
- For storm or roof light issues, we combine OSB/plywood with membranes/taping to help keep weather out until permanent repair.
- We clear loose glass and debris and leave the site tidy.
- Insurer-ready documentation
- Time-stamped photos before/after, an itemised invoice and a simple work statement.
- Keep your police reference number if you have one; insurers often request it.
If you also need glazing afterwards, we can coordinate a board-up and arrange follow-on glazing through trusted partners.

Mini Case Studies in Morden
-
Late-night break-in near Morden Station (SW19): A flat had a forced uPVC door. We installed a temporary steel door and anti-tamper boarded a shattered side light. Photos and an itemised invoice were provided for the insurer. The resident reported feeling secure and slept at home that night.
-
Shop window smashed on London Road: A retail unit suffered accidental breakage. We implemented shopfront boarding with thicker OSB and internal battens due to the opening size, then coordinated with a glazing partner for replacement glass the next day.
-
Storm damage off Central Road: A first-floor sash window fractured during high winds. We used ladder access, boarded from inside with anti-tamper fixings and taped joints for temporary weatherproofing until the joiner replaced the sashes.
