October is traditionally associated with a rise in burglaries as the nights begin to draw in.<\/p>\n<p>Did you know that <a href=\"http:\/\/www.securedbydesign.com\/about-secured-by-design\/\">one in four households<\/a> have no security measures in place? Those homes are opening themselves up to thieves.<\/p>\n<p>The campaign aims to encourage people to take the security of their homes seriously, which includes buying alarms, CCTV systems and locks.<\/p>\n<p>We recommend buying security measures that are Secured by Design-approved to keep you and your family safe at home.<\/p>\n<h2>What is Secured by Design?<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.anytrades.co.uk\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/SBD-PPS-logo-small-1024x675.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"570\" height=\"308\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-4397 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 570px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 570\/308;\" \/>Secured by Design is a national police crime prevention initiative that has developed a Police Preferred Specification, which means that security products must be re-tested regularly to ensure that they are at a high standard.<\/p>\n<h3>The attack test standard<\/h3>\n<p>Secured by Design-licensed products pass standards and tests to show that they can prevent or reduce crime. This usually means that they have resistance to a physical attack. Some of the products that are licensed and pass the attack test standard include: bicycle security solutions, windows, doors, locks and asset tracking.<\/p>\n<h2>Why choose Secured by Design-approved products?<\/h2>\n<p>Homes that use products that meet Secured by Design standards are up to 75% less likely to be burgled and see a reduction of 25% in criminal damage.<\/p>\n<p>And since it only costs an average of \u00a3170 extra to use approved products in the home, it hardly makes sense not to use them.<\/p>\n<h2>What if I only have a small budget?<\/h2>\n<p>If you can\u2019t kit your whole house out in Secured by Design-approved products, focus on your doors, locks and windows first. If you\u2019re good at DIY, you could save more money by fitting the products yourself.<\/p>\n<p>If you have got more money to spare, choosing Secured by Design-approved alarms and CCTV systems is a great idea.<\/p>\n<h2>How can I ensure an installer is reputable?<\/h2>\n<p>Another important way to keep your home secure is by choosing pros that have a good reputation. Look for installers that are a member of a recognised trade association \u2013 never discuss your security needs with telephone callers or door-to-door salespeople.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s also vital to get a written quote, not an estimate, so you can refer to this later. Make sure you only pay for the work when the pro has finished the work and you\u2019re happy.<\/p>\n<p>Keep an eye out for more National Home Security Month updates from us on our blog and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/quotatis\">Twitter<\/a>.
