Security advice for semi-detached houses
Semi-detached properties often share a side passage with the neighbouring house, a common entry point that is easy to overlook. Sensors on the side gate and rear door are important.
Party wall construction means that an alarm sounder can be heard by neighbours, which adds an extra layer of social deterrence.
Smart alarms with app control are popular for semi-detached homes as they allow remote setting and monitoring without disturbing neighbours.
