The dark season attracts burglars – roller shutters provide effective protection

When the days get shorter and shorter and it gets dark earlier, the number of burglaries increases. According to the latest crime statistics, the dark period from October to March is particularly popular among thieves: the average number of break-ins rose by 46% compared to the spring and summer months. Most burglaries happen during the day, often at twilight or after dark. The culprits often use simple tools such as screwdrivers to force unsecured windows and balcony or patio doors open. The right security technology can provide effective protection against this, meaning that one in three attempts to break in through suitable security protection fail. Anti-break-in windows and stabile roller shutter systems prevent windows from being opened quickly using tools. A qualified expert from the association of roller shutter and sun protection technicians can provide advice on effective burglary protection.
 
Anti-intruder roller shutters have a particularly robust roller shutter curtain and sturdy guide rails. They should have reinforced closures that cannot be pulled out. Complemented by an anti-lift device and a roller shutter box that cannot be accessed from outside, they form a unit that poses a serious obstacle to thieves.
 
An electronic drive system guarantees additional theft protection. The motor automatically supports the anti-lift device when the roller shutter is closed. Timer controls close the roller shutters when residents are not at home and also create the illusion of someone being at home. A random timer switch that varies the opening and closing times helps to support this illusion. Intelligent control elements are thus the ideal additions to resistant roller shutters.
