We’re asking everyone in our community to take a few moments to check their home security and review some simple crime prevention advice to help keep our neighbourhoods safe. 🤝

Our Team 5 Target Car officers have shared the following guidance to help residents protect their homes and support one another within the community 🏡

💭 Lock snapping is a technique used to target certain euro cylinder locks, often fitted to uPVC and composite doors. Some older-style locks can be vulnerable, but upgrading them is usually quick, affordable, and can greatly improve security.

You can check your lock by looking at the front of it and comparing it to the example shown below. Locks displaying the TS007 3-star marking are designed to provide extra protection against this method. 🔐

Here are a few simple ways we can all help strengthen community safety:

🔒 Consider upgrading to anti-snap or TS007 3-star rated locks
💡 Use sensor lighting around entrances and driveways where possible
📹 Use CCTV, video doorbells, or visible security devices if available
🚗 Always remove valuables from vehicles and ensure they are locked
🪟 Keep valuables, keys, and handbags out of sight from windows and doors
🚪 Double-check doors and windows are locked before leaving home
👀📱Keep an eye out for neighbours and report suspicious behaviour to police
🤝 Share crime prevention advice with friends, family, and local residents

Even small security improvements can make a big difference. By staying aware, supporting one another, and working together, we can help keep our neighbourhoods safe, welcoming, and secure for everyone 🚨🚔
