• Depending on the economic viability, it is desirable to have intrusion alarm security system covering all vulnerable points of possible intrusion into the shop. • If there is a safe in the shop then it can be effectively covered by a PIR that is linked to an alarm. This will raise the alarm in case anyone comes near the safe. • Intruder alarms are one of the simplest and most effective way of dealing with break-in. Such alarms fit on every door/window and the external shutter and would raise an alarm to attract the attention of the Guard/Passer-by in case of a break-in. Such alarms, coupled with Auto-dialer can inform you also in case of a break-in. In case you have an alarm, then putting a notice on the front of the shop that you have an electronic alarm will also deter a casual thief. • All entry and exit points should be well lit or fitted with security lights that are switched on automatically whenever someone enters the area at night. • Windows should have bars or a firm grill specially those on the ground floor or those that are accessible from outside. The bars or grill should not be screwed to the window frames but embedded into the wooden window frame or welded to the metallic window frame. There are many more precautions that are applicable as mentioned under Windows and Ventilators . |
