Security advice for flat or apartments

1

Flats in purpose-built blocks benefit from a system that covers the front door and any communal access points. Wireless systems are quick to install with minimal disruption to other residents.

2

For ground-floor and basement flats, window sensors are as important as door sensors. Ensure all accessible windows are covered.

3

Smart alarm systems without a physical panel box are ideal for rented flats: they require no drilling and can be taken when you move.
