When you look at your family and your home, you know you want them to be safe. Each morning when you leave, you expect to come back to a happy family and to a home that is secure. But as they say, hope is not a strategy. Many people overlook, ignore or underestimate the need to take appropriate home security measures. With over 10 years' experience working in the home security sector, CAVHIL Limited Security Advisors can carry out a home security assessment and offer crime prevention advice. Using the latest technology we can provide a quality service at an affordable price.

Although we know that burglaries occur (2017 crime statistics show a 9% increase in police recorded burglary offences compared with the previous year) generally we do not believe that this will happen to us. Often people wait until the horse has bolted before closing the stable door whereas the best way to secure your home is to deter criminals by making your property an unattractive target which will go a long way towards preventing the burglary from happening in the first place! We supply and install wired and wireless Intruder Alarm systems for both residential and commercial properties.

While there are a number of other home security measures that can be implemented at lower cost, more and more of us are turning to closed circuit television (CCTV) to protect our homes and businesses. Aside from the obvious deterrent to would-be burglars (most criminals who burgle are looking for an easy target; a property they can break into quickly, take something of value, and leave without being detected) CCTV on your property can deter other criminal activities such as bogus callers, sneak thieves, distraction thieves, vandalism, arson, anti-social behaviour, and so the list goes on.

Door entry systems and access control provide residential and commercial property owners with the reassurance that they can control, monitor and - if necessary - restrict the movement of people into and around their property. Simply put, a door access system is used to lock out anyone who does not qualify to access a certain area. This system can be installed on the front door, parking garage, or any sensitive areas around your home or within your business. Like many security devices, door entry systems should be viewed as an investment.

When looking to purchase home improvements it is vital that you select a professional company to carry out the works. The CPA is a national organisation that has been protecting consumers for over twenty years and is recognised as the number one organisation for protecting property owners when they make a major home improvement purchase. The organisation was launched to combat the problems that arise when a company goes out of business, whilst carrying out home improvement work for a consumer. This would often leave consumers out of pocket, see them lose their deposit or left to deal with a product that develops a fault but for which no guarantee is in place because the company is no longer around.
