How We Secure Your Property
Our approach focuses on safety, strength and minimal damage:
-
Rapid assessment
- We assess glass, frames and surrounding structure.
- We clear loose shards and debris to make the area safe.
-
Material selection
- Weather-rated plywood or OSB boarding, typically 11–18 mm thickness depending on opening size and risk.
- We choose plywood boarding or OSB boarding to balance strength, weight and availability.
-
Professional fixings
- Anti-tamper fixings that can’t be easily removed from the outside.
- Bracing and packers to protect frames; non-destructive securing wherever possible.
- We fix into masonry or existing structural points to avoid damaging undisturbed glazing or frames.
-
Temporary doors and screens (when required)
- Temporary steel doors to secure a compromised entrance while allowing keyholder access.
- Steel security screens or Sitex-style security screens for vacant property security or repeated vandalism risk.
-
Weatherproofing and finishing
- External sealing or membrane for temporary weatherproofing after roof or skylight issues.
- Neat, tidy and aligned boards to maintain safety and appearance.
-
Documentation for insurers
- Time-stamped photos, itemised invoice and a simple work statement to support your claim.
Exception note: If there is structural damage (e.g., bowed lintels, unsafe masonry) we will stabilise the area as best as practicable and may recommend follow-up by a structural or roofing specialist before final securing.
