If your shed has windows, keep these items out of view so thieves aren’t tempted. As with anything else, you get what you pay for when you buy a garden shed, so be prepared to pay a little extra for better materials and construction if you want your shed to last.

What to Consider When Choosing Shed Security

Don’t put it in a very secluded part of your garden, however, as this can make it easy for thieves to spend time in the shed removing all your equipment without being noticed.

With all this, the place you choose for your sheds also plays a game-changing role. If you have got a shed right in front of the street it would just be like inviting the burglars, that’s why we recommend to get it far away from the street to intensify the protection.It detects motion from as far as 12m, and produces a loud 100dB siren. To silence the alarm, you have to enter a 4-digit pin on the keypad. This will hide your expensive gardening equipment, bicycles and other outdoor items from view and help prevent anyone from getting any ideas about stealing them. Images shown are supplied by the manufacturers. Unless stated otherwise, any tools, accessories, toys, garden equipment etc. are only shown for photographic purposes. As well as having friendly neighbours, a good burglar deterrent is automatic lighting. The dream scenario for any burglar is to be unseen and hide in the shadows. Motion-detecting lights remove that possibility and alert you when there’s movement in the garden at night. It works by detecting vibration when a burglar tries to break in through the door or window. It’ll sound some pre-warning beeps to deter the burglar before any damage is done, then the main siren will go off.

This one comes with a sturdy steel bar that resists any sort of cutting or even heavy damaging, so even if the buggers try heavy tools or the sharpest ones they won’t be able to invade your property, and your pricey equipment is easily saved. Another good thing would be to replace the screws with bolts and such heavy minor things, this may sound obvious but they can be of crucial importance in the long run. A lot of shed alarms are available. Low budget options feature a single unit that contains both a speaker and sensor. For most sheds, these are perfect and can be operated using a keypad or remote fob. For larger sheds or those with electricity, house alarms can also be used. Smart alarms can connect to the internet and send a notification to your mobile phone if the alarm is triggered. The bar is made from galvanised steel, which provides long term corrosion protection even in coastal areas. What we like about it:Secure roof base – Another common weak point is where the roof meets the walls. Make sure you have a solid, fairly heavy roof that can’t be shifted easily. But if you have expensive tools, a lawn mower, bikes and other valuable items, we recommend getting something more secure. Another useful addition is an alarm. It can be a motion-detection alarm, a door alarm, or a vibration alarm. Some alarms combine different sensors such as a motion sensor, a window sensor and a door sensor. B.
