Boarding Up
If you expect your vacant property to remain that way for an extended length of time, we recommend sealing the doors and windows to prevent unwanted entry. We can fit shutters to the windows and doors and incorporate heavy-duty padlocks for added protection. We can also prevent access from vehicles, by laying concrete barriers across any unsecured entrances to the building premises.
Emergency Boarding Up
Deployed Within 2 Hours
Boarding up security services play a crucial role in safeguarding properties against various threats, including natural disasters, vandalism, and unauthorised access. By securing doors, windows, and other vulnerable entry points with durable materials, these services provide a robust barrier that helps to prevent damage and protect valuable assets. This proactive measure is especially important in areas prone to hurricanes, storms, or civil unrest, where the risk of property damage is significantly higher. Boarding up not only deters potential intruders but also mitigates the impact of environmental hazards, ensuring the integrity and safety of the property. Furthermore, it provides peace of mind to property owners, knowing that their premises are secured against unforeseen events, reducing the likelihood of costly repairs and loss of valuables.
Your Questions Answered…
1. What is the purpose of boarding up services?
Answer: Boarding up services are designed to secure windows, doors, and other entry points to protect properties from damage due to vandalism, theft, natural disasters, or other potential threats. This preventative measure helps to maintain the safety and integrity of the property until permanent repairs can be made.
2. What materials are used for boarding up?
Answer: The most common material used is plywood, due to its strength and availability. Depending on the level of security required, additional materials such as metal sheets or bars can also be used. The choice of material will depend on the specific needs of the property and the potential threats it faces.
3. Can boarding up services be customized for specific needs?
Answer: Yes, boarding up services can be tailored to meet specific requirements. This includes custom cutting of plywood to fit unique window or door sizes, adding extra reinforcement for high-risk areas, or using additional security features like metal bars or shutters.
4. When should I consider using boarding up services?
Answer: Boarding up is typically used when a property is at risk of damage from severe weather events (like storms or hurricanes), during periods of heightened security risk (such as after a break-in or vandalism), or when a property is vacant and requires extra protection. It is also useful when immediate repairs are not possible.
5. How long does the boarding up process take?
Answer: The duration of the boarding up process depends on the size and number of openings that need to be covered. Generally, it can take a few hours to a full day to complete, including preparation and installation. For urgent situations, expedited services can often be arranged.
6. How do you ensure the boarding up is secure and effective?
Answer: We ensure the boarding up is secure by using high-quality materials and following best practices for installation. This includes securely fastening boards with screws or nails, checking for any gaps or weaknesses, and reinforcing the boards as needed. We also conduct a final inspection to verify that all entry points are properly covered and secured.
