Personal Security

Personal security is something most people have been taught by their parents, lessons which we tend to forget or ignore from time to time.

Here are a few reminders and thoughts to keep in mind:

• Try not to carry parcels or large packages when using public transport or walking through a public area.
• Do not leave items of value in your vehicle; and leave the glove box open and empty.
• Motorised drive way gates are easy to lift off the gear and slid open. Have a piece of metal welded to the frame above the gate on the side of the motor.
• Use timed switches on lamps in the house when going away.

After 7 years in the private security field says, I have come to realise that many a crime could have been prevented if a little preparation and thought had been made.
