How We Secure Your Property
Our approach focuses on safety, strength and minimal damage.
- Safety first
- We assess the area, cordon off hazards and clear loose glass. Where needed, we use gloves, eye protection and safe debris handling to protect you, your staff and the public.
- Non-destructive securing wherever possible
- We aim to secure without damaging frames, surrounds or brickwork. Fixings go into robust structural points; we avoid surface finishes where we can. If the frame is severely damaged or the structure is compromised, we’ll explain exceptions clearly before proceeding.
- Materials we use
- Exterior-grade plywood or OSB boarding, typically 11–18 mm thickness depending on opening size and risk.
- Anti-tamper fixings that can’t be easily removed from outside.
- Packing and bracing as needed to achieve a tight, rattle-free fit.
- Temporary weatherproofing (membrane, tape, seal) for exposed openings or storm-affected roofs.
- Temporary secure door or steel screens (if needed)
- For properties that must remain accessible, we can install a temporary secure door. For void properties, steel security screens can be arranged for medium-term protection.
- Insurer-friendly paperwork
- Time-stamped photos, a simple work statement and an itemised invoice to support your claim. Keep any police reference number safe.
