Our Emergency Boarding Up Service is a quick and efficient way to protect an empty property.
Problems with empty property can escalate very quickly. A broken window can lead to further vandalism, access into the property and possible squatting unless appropriate action is taken quickly. Secure Empty Property offers emergency window boarding and our installation teams provide rapid response to minimise risk – nationwide.
Our services range from security door and metal window boarding through to alarm response 24-hours a day, utilising satellite tracked vehicles. However, we take this further by providing a rapid response to customer enquiries, site surveys and security proposals to ensure that we can react to your specific requirements.
Our wooden, steel and perforated screens present a range of options for boarding up your empty property. The boards act as a deterrent, making it obvious that the property is actively being protected. Boarding up also actively protects the property and the public in the event that a window or door is damaged.
Security Door
The most popular door option for emergency boarding up features insurance approved, two five-lever mortice deadlocks with unique keys for Secure Empty Property. Doors can be suited to client requirements including the same key for all doors, different keys for each door or two keys for each door. Lock replacement is available if keys are lost or current keyholders need to be barred from access to the property.
Modular & Perforated Window Screens
Secure Empty Property supply and install a variety of steel security screens for hire or purchase.
Our emergency boarding up services are designed to suit a range of budgets, security requirements and property types.
Modular 1.2mm galvanised/powder-coated steel screens can be installed up to vulnerable first-floor level – usually in less than an hour and often the same day. Modular steel screen sizes have fixing points over their surface and utilise a variety of fixing techniques. Dependent on the type of property, steel studding or cable, are affixed by bolts or ratchets to internal bars inside the property. The modular screens ‘sandwiches’ the window opening removing the need for damage to window frames and often the need to de-glaze.
We also have the option for circumstances such as demolition / long-term hire/ sale or budget, bespoke cut reveal fitting galvanised 1.2mm perforated steel sheet cut for the window reveal size and installed with our own unique security screws.
Plywood Boards
