Holiday Security Tips

Protecting your property during the holidays is crucial. Here are six essential security tips to help you stay safe and worry-free:

1. Double-check All Entry Points
   Ensure all doors and windows are locked securely before leaving your property.
2. Lighting
   Use timers for lights to create the impression that someone is home or onsite.
3. Remove Valuables from View
   Keep valuable items out of sight to deter opportunistic intruders.
4. Update Keyholders
   Inform your Alarm Monitoring Controlroom of your holiday plans and ensure their contact details are up to date.
5. Test Your Alarm System
