How We Secure Your Property
Our priority is to make your property safe, secure and weatherproof while keeping damage and disruption to a minimum.
- Assessment and safety: We assess glass hazards, frame condition and any structural concerns. We clear accessible loose shards and cordon off unsafe areas.
- Non-destructive securing: Wherever possible, we use existing frames and reveal lines to avoid drilling into undamaged fabric. In rare cases (e.g., structural damage or missing frames), we’ll explain why minimal fixings are needed for safety.
- Materials matched to the opening:
- Plywood or OSB boarding (commonly 11–18 mm depending on opening size and risk)
- Weather-resistant sheeting or temporary tarping if needed for storm ingress
- Anti-tamper fixings: We use anti-tamper fixings designed so they can’t be easily removed from the outside, helping deter repeat attempts.
- Doors and frames: For doors compromised by forced entry, we can install a temporary secure door or brace/board to insurer expectations, checking the frame for splits.
- Temporary steel options: For higher risk or longer-term needs, we can install temporary steel doors and steel security screens (Sitex-style anti-vandal security screens) to protect vacant or repeatedly targeted properties.
- Board and glaze option: If glazing replacement is required, we can provide a “board & glaze” pathway by coordinating with glazing partners for follow-up glass replacement while keeping you secure in the meantime.
- Insurer-ready evidence: We document damage and our boarding work with time-stamped photos and provide a simple work statement with itemised invoice.

Roehampton micro case studies
- Break-in on Roehampton Lane (SW15): A ground-floor flat’s uPVC window was forced. We completed emergency window boarding with 18 mm OSB and anti-tamper fixings, non-destructively using the reveal. Time-stamped photos and an itemised invoice were supplied for the insurer.
- Storm damage near Richmond Park Gate (SW15): High winds blew a large pane on a garden room. We cleared safe access, weatherproofed with sheeting, then installed 12 mm plywood boarding. A follow-up plan for glazing was arranged via a board & glaze pathway.
- Shopfront incident on Danebury Avenue (SW15): A late-night impact shattered a retail pane. We made safe, installed rigid plywood boarding with anti-tamper fixings and provided RAMS notes for the manager’s records. Temporary steel door access was discussed due to repeat incidents.
