When a property is vacant it is a magnet to crime. Vandalism, arson, fly tipping and theft are huge issues. As well as loss there can be enormous cost implications when it comes to repairing or making good any damage. Squatting is major concern as it can take a considerable amount of time to serve eviction notices. Another consideration is that anyone injured whilst on your property even illegally, can bring injury claims against you.

Spartan 24 Hour Security provide vacant property security and protection across Liverpool and the UK. Vacant Property Security needs to be tailored to the property, there is never a one-size-fits-all solution. We can offer vacant property protection on a small, terraced house, an empty retail unit or a large commercial building.

We understand that you may need either a long term vacant property security solution or just require a short period of protection. For example we are often under instruction from landlords to secure properties for a short time between lettings, a cost effective way of protecting an asset.

Vacant Property Security Benefits

Protect Assets

A property is an asset, when an empty property is broken into the asset devalues if it is damaged. Repairs can be costly and time consuming. Even if there are no contents as such, a place can be stripped of metals and other materials.

Insurance Needs

If your vacant property is not adequately secured this can affect an insurance pay out. In fact, many insurance companies insist upon empty property security or will not offer cover. A costly risk to take if you choose not to comply.

Building Site

Many construction sites have building materials of high value, these need the best protection a security company can offer. We can provide a service tailored to your individual needs. We offer security patrols, dogs, CCTV and a wealth of knowledge.

Patrol visits

Spartan 24 Hour Security provide a security patrol service with high visibility vehicles and uniformed officers. We can arrange to be on site 24 hours a day or visit at random times to check on a property and make sure all is well internally.

Risk Assessment

We can provide a detailed risk assessment of the property. We will point out weaknesses in security and suggest solutions, many of which we can supply to ensure the premises is as secure as possible.

Value for Money

Security may appear as an unnecessary added expense but in the long term it will more than pay for itself. A vacant property without adequate security can become a liability with much added expense.

How to secure a vacant property

Harden the building

Fit British Standard locks, secure letterboxes, and use steel security screens or doors on vulnerable openings, especially ground-floor windows and rear entrances. Remove ladders, bins and anything that helps someone climb. Clear vegetation that hides access points.

Remove the reasons to break in

Take out valuable fittings, tools and stock. Drain or isolate services where practical to reduce the value of metal theft and the risk of flooding. Redirect post so it does not pile up.

Install a monitored alarm or CCTV

A monitored intruder alarm or a battery-powered, monitored CCTV unit alerts a control room the moment someone enters. Verified activations get a faster police response. Our CCTV monitoring team can watch temporary systems around the clock.

Make the building look watched

Timer lighting, “24-hour security” and “CCTV in operation” signage, and a marked patrol vehicle seen on the street all signal that the property is not forgotten.

Inspect regularly and record it

Weekly inspections by a trained officer satisfy insurers and catch problems early: a leak, a broken window, evidence of attempted entry. Every visit should be logged with photographs.

Arrange a rapid response

Someone must attend when the alarm goes off at 3am. A key holding and alarm response service means an SIA-licensed officer attends, secures the building and liaises with police and contractors so you do not have to.

Step up for high-risk periods

During renovations, after an attempted break-in or when a property is featured in the press, temporary static guarding or a dog unit provides the strongest deterrent until the risk subsides.

The law on squatters

Since 2012, squatting in a residential building is a criminal offence in England and Wales and police can remove squatters. Commercial premises are different: squatting is a civil matter, and owners must obtain a possession order through the courts, which takes time and money and often leaves damage behind. That is why prevention and early detection matter most for empty shops, offices and industrial units. Never attempt to remove squatters yourself; take advice and use lawful process.
