Burglars are cashing in on the hot weather, leaving home owners who are out sun-worshiping to count the cost. Windows and doors left open or unlocked while residents are out or even in the back garden, are an invitation to criminals. Police are warning the public to be more aware of securing their property as an increase in burglary rises during heat-waves

The recent good weather has seen a spate of house break-ins in the North-East of England. Middlesbrough CID, said: “It’s frustrating for us to learn of the figures for last weekend’s break-ins. We repeatedly run campaigns and operations targeting house burglary and putting burglars behind bars. Generally the message is getting across and we are seeing good results.”

One of the factors helping in reducing house burglaries are modern Burglar Alarms like the BT Wireless Burglar Alarm available by mail order from Crime Prevention Products,
Terry Rattee, Managing Director of CPP added: “With the recent warm weather I can only assume people are going out to enjoy the sunshine and forgetting to lock their doors & windows, or having no alarm on the property thereby giving opportunist thieves the perfect chance to take the householders’ property.”

A property can be easily protected and because they are wireless, may be fitted in about 2 hours by the average householder. With monitoring by BT costing only 16p a day, you will always know if your alarm is sounding and arrange the appropriate action from wherever you are, even away on holiday!

The monitoring service even informs you of power failure or interruption with the telephone line.
