Across the UK, homeowners are growing increasingly concerned about domestic security. In picturesque Dorset towns like Bournemouth, Poole, and Weymouth, the perception of safety can often lull residents into a false sense of security. But rising burglary rates—even in coastal communities—highlight the urgent need to reassess our home security strategies.
According to recent UK crime statistics, over 267,000 burglaries were reported in a 12-month period. In Dorset alone, police recorded more than 1,500 home break-ins, with many occurring in neighbourhoods traditionally considered “safe.” It begs the question: Is your home really safe without an intruder alarm?
Contact usMany homeowners rely solely on locks and the assumption that living in a quiet area shields them from criminal activity. However, data consistently shows that:
Homes without burglar alarms are up to 3 times more likely to be targeted.
Thieves often scout for homes that appear unmonitored or unprotected.
Even during daylight hours, properties in suburban Dorset are being targeted.
Locks alone—no matter how modern—can’t provide real-time deterrence or alert you and authorities during an intrusion. A home alarm system adds that critical extra layer of protection.
Get in TouchIntruder alarm systems are designed to detect unauthorised entry into a property. The core components typically include:
Motion detectors
Door and window sensors
Alarm sirens
Control panels and keypads
Remote monitoring or mobile alerts
Once an intrusion is detected, the system emits a loud alarm and can send alerts to your phone or a monitoring centre. This immediate response deters burglars, alerts you and your neighbours, and can lead to faster police intervention.
