For instance, the actual psychology behind a security grille fitted on a window is a &#8216;visual deterrent&#8217;. Physical security products put burglars off as they simply make it time consuming for a break-in and intruders will simply target a &#8216;less secure&#8217; property.<\/p>\n<p><b><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Time is Money<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p>Time is one of the most valuable asset in any burglary attempt. Every burglar knows this: the longer it takes to get in and out, the less time they have to steal and a higher chance of them being caught! Since time plays against a burglar\u2019s strategy, a property owner need to take the right measures to maximise this factor by trying to slow them down. Many at times, simple but effective measures can be put in place such as placing a heavy flower pot underneath a ground floor window can make it more difficult for someone to gain entry.<\/p>\n<p><b><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">The Noise Factor<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p>Research has shown that the more noise a burglar generates while attempting to break into a building, the higher are the chances of them being noticed.\u00a0 A combination of alarms, window bars and door gates can be the exact ingredients in deterring a criminal.
