As your shed is separated from your main property, yet could contain valuable items, it may be a prime target for opportunist burglars. You could also make sure the motion-activated lights from your home reach towards the shed – ensuring the entire yard is illuminated if movement is detected is sure to be a strong deterrent to a burglar. 7. Watch out for loose hinges on the shed door But if you have expensive tools, a lawn mower, bikes and other valuable items, we recommend getting something more secure. The windows in a shed are a weak point. Firstly they allow a thief to see what's available inside! And secondly, if they like what they see, a thief can smash or punch through the window to gain access to the inside. To further help secure your windows, you might like to consider installing window bars. These can help obscure the view a little, but their main aim is to protect the windows – breaking them will be very difficult when they are covered by metal bars! 2. Fit an alarmPrevention and possible fix: Avoid advertising the contents of your shed and tempting thieves in the process. Putting up curtains or other window coverings is the easiest way to do this. The type of covering you install depends on how you use the shed.

Try to make your shed difficult to see from outside of your property – if a thief can’t be certain you even have a shed, they’re more likely to move on. Bespoke lengths ( includes 3000mm bar) will take longer to make and galvanize, therefore please add at least 7-days onto your chosen delivery time. If the windows are glass you should consider replacing them with shatter-proof Styrene panes, or laminated glass. 8. Anchor the shed to the ground It detects motion from as far as 12m, and produces a loud 100dB siren. To silence the alarm, you have to enter a 4-digit pin on the keypad. The UK is home to millions of garden sheds – and that means millions of opportunities for burglars to strike.The bar is made from galvanised steel, which provides long term corrosion protection even in coastal areas. What we like about it: However, the garden shed can be a bit of blind spot. Think about what you keep in your shed. Maybe you use it as storage? You might have a hobby that you practice, and keep your gear in the shed. Some people even use their shed as a type of home office, with computer, printer etc. Clearly this isn't a way to make your shed more secure! But it's important. So I thought I'd throw it in at the end... This wireless alarm is designed to be installed outdoors, close to where a burglar is likely to break in through. Installing it outdoors also ensures the siren carries far enough for you or your neighbours to hear.
