First Steps Our Engineer Takes at a Burgled Rainham Property
When a burglary occurs, our first priority is to secure your property immediately. We act swiftly to make the property safe again.
Here's our priority order on arrival:
- Immediate Security: We'll board up any forced doors or windows to secure the premises. If the frame is intact, we replace the cylinder the same day.
- Damage Assessment: We check the frame and strike plate. Many new composite doors withstand attacks with just a cylinder replacement. Older doors might need a carpenter, and we'll coordinate that for you.
- Comprehensive Lock Change: Every external door, including gates and garden accesses, receives a full lock change. This is vital for homes with rear or side access.
- Window Lock Checks: We inspect all ground-floor and basement window locks, ensuring they're secure, especially in vulnerable areas like ground-floor flats.
We're here to help you regain security and confidence quickly and efficiently.
