With the summer holidays fast approaching, now could be the ideal time to reassess your businesses security. How secure is the fencing around your property? How easy is it for trespassers to gain access to your building or storage areas? With summer burglaries on the rise security is a top priority for businesses and protecting your stock and staff should be high up on the agenda.
Summer holidays can mean trouble as bored youngsters loiter around and look for mischief. Teenagers can be left wandering the streets, climbing onto buildings or trespassing which can be a source of amusement for them. A strong perimeter around your business should be the first port of call when dealing with security. Unmaintained fences or broken panels will be spotted by those looking to enter uninvited and low fences can be all too easy to climb or jump over.
While teenagers may egg each other on to climb fences or squeeze through gaps they may unintentionally cause further damage to your boundaries. Not only will this look unsightly but it could lead to potential trouble further down the line, as commercial properties are often targeted by gangs looking to steal valuable items. If youths are able to intercept your security fencing, other problems can occur as climbing onto buildings and playing chicken can be popular games. Daredevil youngsters can be putting themselves at risk as well as causing damage to roofs and buildings.
Installing new security fencing can be invaluable in the deterrent to both youths and potential trespassers. Not only will it give your property a smart and well-kept look, it will also keep your business and assets safe.
