Stopping It Happening Again
Having secured your home with insurance-approved documentation, it's time to focus on preventing future incidents. We all know the importance of feeling safe at home, so let's talk about practical steps to enhance security.
- Upgrade Locks: Install anti-snap 3-Star cylinders. These locks are designed to resist tampering, offering security.
- Enhance Door Security: Consider adding hinge bolts and London bars or sash jammers to vulnerable doors for extra reinforcement.
- Secure Windows: Don't overlook windows—install window locks to prevent easy access for intruders.
- Review Access Points: Conduct a security review of back and side access areas, particularly common in Putney and Wandsworth terraces. Identifying weak spots can help you fortify your home effectively.
Through these measures, we can substantially reduce the risk of future break-ins and keep our homes secure.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you come out the same day as a break-in?
Yes — we prioritise post-burglary callouts because your property is unsecured. Same-day response across Putney and the SW London river belt, including out of hours.
Do you provide boarding-up if the door or frame is broken?
Yes — if the door or frame is damaged beyond immediate repair, we board up and make the property safe and lockable the same day, then arrange a permanent restoration to insurance spec.
Do you issue documentation for insurance claims?
Yes — an itemised invoice and report with engineer name, work performed, parts fitted (brand and standard) and date, formatted to meet insurer documentation requirements.
Do you charge a callout fee?
No callout fee, no hidden fees. Fixed quote before we start, even for emergency post-burglary work.
What security upgrades do you recommend after a burglary?
We typically fit anti-snap 3-Star cylinders and check hinge bolts, London bars, window locks and back or side access. If the frame is compromised we advise on reinforcement before fitting new locks.
Anti-Snap and Hinge-Bolt Upgrades After a Break-In
After securing your property with emergency boarding, it's important to enhance your home's security to prevent future incidents.
One effective way is by upgrading to anti-snap locks and hinge bolts. These features provide robust protection against forced entry, a common tactic during break-ins.
Anti-snap locks, like the TS007 3-Star Kitemark euro cylinders, are designed to withstand snapping attempts, a method burglars often use to compromise standard locks. By installing these, we markedly reduce the risk of unauthorised entry.
Additionally, hinge bolts add an extra layer of security, especially for outward-opening doors. They prevent doors from being forced off their hinges, making it harder for intruders to gain access.
Both upgrades are essential for reinforcing weak points in your home's security.
Taking these proactive steps now makes a repeat break-in far less likely.
