HARDWARE & SECURITY In UNION with National Home Security Month 2019 UNION supported National Home Security Month (NHSM) 2019, an annual campaign raising awareness of home security and the importance of taking precautions to protect families, property and belongings. » THE CAMPAIGN RAN THROUGHOUT October, coinciding with the start of autumn when the nights start to draw in and the clocks go back an hour. The nationwide initiative was launched by UNION’s sister brand Yale. Burglaries are more likely to involve forced entry into unoccupied houses during the autumn and winter months. Yet many still admit to having no security precautions at home, leaving their property and loved ones at risk. To tackle this, NHSM was set-up to offer seasonal tips and advice. The initiative highlights a different element of home security during each week of the campaign, so homeowners can take steps to minimise the risk of being targeted by burglars. UNION also contributed a blog to the NHSM website, discussing what BS 3621 means for homeowners. Have you checked if your lock is BS 3621 compliant?
