Boarding up & Anti-intruder measures

Boarding up a vacant unit that doesn't have good security measures in place or is located in a high-risk area can provide several advantages:

1. Preventing vandalism and theft:

Boarding up a vacant unit can prevent vandalism and theft by making it more difficult for intruders to gain access to the property. This can help protect the property and any remaining belongings inside.

2. Reducing liability:

Boarding up a vacant unit can reduce liability by preventing unauthorised access to the property. This can help reduce the risk of accidents or injuries on the property and limit the liability of the property owner.

3. Deterrent for criminal activity:

Boarding up a vacant unit can serve as a deterrent for criminal activity by making it clear that the property is not accessible. This can help prevent criminal activity in the area and increase safety for neighbouring properties.

4. Protection from weather damage:

Boarding up a vacant unit can provide protection from weather damage, such as wind, rain, and snow. This can help prevent damage to the property and reduce the cost of repairs.

5. Preservation of property value:

Boarding up a vacant unit can help preserve the value of the property by preventing damage and reducing the risk of theft. This can help ensure that the property maintains its value over time and is easier to sell or rent out in the future.
Generally, boarding up a vacant unit that doesn’t have good security measures in place or is located in a high-risk area can provide several advantages, including preventing vandalism and theft, reducing liability, deterring criminal activity, protecting from weather damage, and preserving property value. It is important to take steps to secure and protect vacant properties to ensure the safety and well-being of the community.

When GRC carry out any sort of preventative measures to a building we would always ensure adequate signage is in place and ensure the unit is looking ‘looked after’ as if the unit looks unattended it can also attract trespassers. Boarding up in conjunction with our signage and CCTV is a great cost effective solution to managing long term vacant properties.
