Tips for business security
- Ensure all internal and external doors, emergency exits and windows are sufficiently solid and secured.
- Lock all doors when the office is unattended.
- Remove all keys from doors, and store in a lockable cabinet.
- Keep a ‘key register’ to record who has access to keys.
- Retrieve keys and access cards from ex-employees.
- Ensure the lock-up procedure of the premises is under the control of a trained staff member.
- Install security lighting
- Keep all fences and building perimeters cleared of rubbish and potential climbing aides, such as ladders & containers.
- Alter or eliminate areas that allow offenders to hide, such as recessed doorways, concealed yards, shrubs or planted areas.
- Secure bins in or away from buildings to prevent arson, or from being used as a means of carrying away stolen goods.
- Ensure that your car park is well lit, with safe access to and from your business.
