Security advice for semi-detached houses

1

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.

2

Party wall construction means that an alarm sounder can be heard by neighbours, which adds an extra layer of social deterrence.

3

Smart alarms with app control are popular for semi-detached homes as they allow remote setting and monitoring without disturbing neighbours.
