Give A Big Welcome To The Solar Powered Welcome Light

Filed under: Home Security — admin @ 3:43 pm

We’re always on the lookout for the latest security devices which will make life, that little bit harder, for any opportunistic thief! Over the years, we’ve introduced covert cameras, home alarms and driveway alarms onto our website which have been a massive hit with our internet customers. We also stock a vast array of personal alarm devices that are designed to not only keep you safe but look fashionable as well.

However, one of the best security devices we sell throughout the winter months has to be the external security lighting (after-all, no thief wants to be illuminated in light if they decide to loiter outside your home). At Crime Prevention Products we want to introduce to you another perfect security device, that will not only keep opportunist thieves far from your door it’ll also welcome you, your family and friends home.

The Solar Powered Welcome Light has a PIR (Passive Infra Red) motion sensor which, when activated, will illuminate for one minute before the Super Bright White LED switches itself off again, ready to be activated once more.

The Solar Powered Welcome Light only requires direct sunlight, a couple of times a week, to remain fully charged and would be a perfect addition to any homeowners home security needs.

Make A Mark On Your Possessions

Filed under: Home Security — admin @ 3:55 pm

Remember the days when you were happy to receive just one main Christmas present? Oh, how have times changed! Parents and Grandparents, nowadays, spend small fortunes on making sure our kids ‘want for nothing’! Of-course, you can point the finger of blame to commercialism or ‘Pester Power‘ or just ‘overdoing it for the sake of overdoing it‘. Fact is, with many gifts costing in excess of £100 per item, it’s no wonder parents are anxious to protect their kids’ gifts long after the Christmas day euphoria has passed.

As parents we’re only to aware that our children are notorious for leaving/dumping toys and bikes in the front garden or driveway, heck even in the street… in full view of any opportunistic thief that just happens to be passing by. These thieves may not be part of any organised crime syndicate, they may be children from another estate or town or just someone wanting to make some quick, easy money down the local pub.

Every year millions of pounds of stolen property is recovered by the police and other government bodies, however, identifying the owners can prove to be a bit more tricky. One of the best ways to help make sure your property is identifiable is to place a special mark on it, a unique mark that only you will know – such as your postcode. Crime Prevention Products can supply various Property Marking Kits that will ensure that if your possessions are stolen and recovered they have at least a chance of being returned to you.

Winter Time Home And Personal Security Tips

Filed under: Home Security — admin @ 12:51 pm

Last weekend we said a fond farewell to the British summertime and adjusted our clocks accordingly, slicing an hour’s worth of daylight from our lives. At the moment, the only downside to adjusting our clocks to winter settings means we’ll get home from work in the dark. But as the week’s advance and winter time settles in, it’ll not be long before we’re heading off to work in the dark as well.

An expected rise in burglaries happens during the winter months as the cover of darkness makes it easier for sneak thiefs to get around. A piece of home security advice we’d like to offer home owners who get home after dark in the winter months is to think about installing security timers which can switch appliances on and off automatically at different times throughout the day – these can switch on lamps or radios – as there’s no better invitation to an opportunistic thief than you’re home sitting in darkness.

Also, elderly residents are often seen as ‘soft targets’ during the winter months. Which is why we urge people to “think ahead” in terms of protecting themselves. When it comes to personal alarms some may be too fidgety or too small to work with for our elderly customers and the pull rings can be somewhat impossible to grasp. Therefore we have the ideal personal alarm for those that have decreased mobility in their hands.

Our Chaperone Nightingale Personal Alarm has no cords or small pull rings just a very large button that activates the loud 120+ dB ear piercing alarm ensuring ease of use for elderly home owners.

The Perfect Handbag Accessory

Filed under: Personal Safety — admin @ 2:26 pm

In just a couple of months time many directors, managers and employees will be heading out to either their local bar, restaurant or club in order to celebrate their companies annual Christmas party. This is one of the few occasions where managers and employees can forget all about the pressures of everyday work thus allowing them to let their hair down and relax. This is also a time when many employees see this as the perfect opportunity to treat themselves and spend their hard earned cash on a new xmas outfit.

Alongside those new togs there is one accessory that always turns heads and that’s a new designer handbag (which may have cost a small fortune). Although it’s not just those with a keen fashion sense who will have noticed your new bag – opportunistic thieves may also show their appreciation and will be keen to see it close-up as well as the contents of you’re handbag.

That’s why we at Crime Prevention Products can supply you with the perfect handbag accessory the Handbag Keep-Safe Hook With Compact Mirror… This simple device will keep any handbag well out the way of dirty floors and more importantly in easy sight of its owner.

With the average contents of a handbag totalling around £350 – never mind the purchase price of the bag itself – it’s worth making sure you keep your handbag safe whilst looking good at the same time.

Make Stalkers See Red With The Mace UV Defence Spray

Filed under: Personal Safety — admin @ 12:40 pm

In recent months there have been numerous stories in our media regarding the rising trend in people being stalked. Ranging from famous footballers to gay communities it has to one of the most frightening experiences for a person to endure that someone is stalking you! Stalking just doesn’t happen in the real world either as Cyber Stalking is a growing concern and brings its own challenges for the authorities to stamp-out.

Facts Regarding Stalking in the UK:

  • Over 1.2 million women and 900,000 men are stalked every year according to The British Crime Survey 2004.
  • 8% of women and 6% of men are stalked every year.
  • 19% of women and 12% of men have experienced stalking or harassment at some point in their lives.

(source)

In a recent study carried out by Napo (the probation officers union) found that victims of stalking were being failed by our legal system. The study which is the first of it’s kind shows that sentences handed down to stalkers have been far to lenient. In fact last year in Britain there were 120,000 cases of stalking in which 53,000 were reported as a crime, however only 2% of the offenders were given a custodial sentence and a further 10% had to do community service or handed a fine. (source)

Crime Prevention Products understand that everyone deserves the right to their freedom whether it’s walking to the shops or enjoying yourself on a night out. That’s why we supply a host of personal security devices such as Defence Sprays which can cover your attacker in a bright red UV dye not only giving you time to react and escape but also help the authorities identify the culprit even days later as the dye is very, very stubborn to remove.

Remember, remember the 5th of November, The Gunpowder, Treason and Plot.

For most, Bonfire Night will pass with no trouble at all as councils and community groups organise special events to help celebrate this custom with safety as the main priority.

The dark side of Bonfire Night is that ceratin individuals/groups use this time of the year to terrorise neighbourhoods. In England they call it ‘Mischievous Night‘ where youths have been known to set fireworks off down local streets, place ‘bangers’ through people’s letterboxes even attacking other teenagers, pets and local business all in the name of ‘fun’.

Ask any home or local business owner, who has been the victim of a firework prank, just how much damage a ‘banger’ or ‘rocket’ can cause to premises.

Crime Prevention Products are committed to protecting local residents and businesses that’s why we can supply some of the markets best Anti Arson Letterboxes, which will ensure that if anything flammable is placed though your door, that’s as far as it gets.

Dummy Cameras The Cheap Security Solution

Filed under: Dummy Cameras — admin @ 1:33 pm

With today’s economic turbulence and the price of everyday essentials fluctuating, many residents are feeling the pinch and becoming reluctant to spend their hard earned cash on ‘top of the range‘ items including security systems. The question is “how much money do you really have to spend on securing your property”?

When it comes to home burglaries – statistics show that the majority are committed by opportunistic thieves! Statistics also show that if your property has any visible security devices the chances are high that a thief is less likely to tackle your premises and seek out an easier target.

In this technological age, we have security devices that will contact you and inform you that someone has entered you property whilst you’re miles away… You can even logon to the Internet using your SmartPhone and watch the burglars in action. Some devices will send you text messages giving you up-to-the-minute status updates about the security of your property. Then, there are personal alarms that not only emit a deafening sound but will also cover your assailant in a permanent florescent paint.

But you don’t need to spend a fortune on the latest hi-tech security gadgets to keep your property safe!

At Crime Prevention Products we stock Dummy Cameras that are designed to imitate the real ones in every way possible. Modern dummy cameras use real camera housings ensuring that even to a professional eye they’re difficult to tell apart. So, if you require home or commercial security cameras and are looking to save money then check out our best selling, low cost Dummy Cameras:
