The locksmith warns of signs on the door

Many burglars have made it their business not only to rob a house, but also to leave important tips for their successors. Is there a dog or a man in the house? Are they elderly people? But even if it is not worthwhile and no money is expected, the burglars pass the information on to subsequent crooks. Locksmith London warns against such signs and advises every homeowner to remove the signs directly. This at least protects against the next burglar trying again. In addition, every homeowner should think about how the burglary protection of the house can be increased at the latest after a burglary. Locksmith London has experienced staff who are happy to carry out an on-site inspection and provide the homeowner with comprehensive advice.
Many houses are marked quite inconspicuously

In the past, houses were painted with chalk to tip off subsequent crooks. The following symbols are often found: a cat = quietly get pushy several prongs = biting dog a circle with two dashes = people get police a V = playing sick is worth it small circles = getting money an antenna = police in the house a circle with two arrows = get away fast Source: Wikipedia "Prongs (secret sign)" Many homeowners have faked their presence by using automatic lights. More and more frequently in modern times, transparent plastic strips are appearing on houses. These strips are shortened to four centimetres and bent in a U-shape. They are clamped between the front door and the frame or fixed to garage doors. If the strips are still unchanged after days, burglars know that no one is home and have an easy job. Locksmith London advises offering neighbours or family members to check on the house from time to time during the holiday season. This removes these signs and makes burglars uneasy.

A small deterrent for burglars is to paint a sign on the door yourself. This beats the burglars at their own game. The symbol is very helpful here, indicating that nothing is up for grabs. But a sophisticated security system also ensures that your belongings are adequately protected. More information can be found here under burglary protection. The London locksmith has the right solution for every house. Front doors should not only be closed, but also locked. In addition, a security system must be installed which immediately sounds the alarm in the event of unauthorised entry. According to Locksmith London, visually visible systems also deter many burglars in advance. Further information:How to protect your house from thieves
