Protecting Your Chichester Home: Insights and Tips from a Local Locksmith

Hi Chichester residents! I'm your local locksmith, Clive, and I want to talk about something that's close to my heart: home security in this charming city. Chichester is a wonderful place to live, with its rich history, beautiful cathedral, and vibrant culture. But, like any community, we must stay vigilant when it comes to safeguarding our homes and families. So, here's how our local attractions and history can inspire home security.

Getting to Know Chichester and Home Security:

Chichester Cathedral: Our breathtaking cathedral is the heart of the city, and its history is a testament to this place's enduring charm. Just like the cathedral stands as a symbol of history and heritage, your home is your personal haven. Protect it with strong locks and security systems.

Chichester Festival Theatre: The cultural scene in Chichester is vibrant, with the Festival Theatre offering world-class performances. The Festival Theatre brings the community together through the arts. Similarly, a close-knit neighborhood and community watch can enhance your home's safety.

Chichester Harbour: Our beautiful natural surroundings in Chichester Harbour AONB offer serenity, but they also underscore the importance of safeguarding your property and belongings. This natural beauty makes it a popular destination for locals and tourists alike. With many visitors coming to the area and the increased foot traffic this brings, it's essential to ensure the security of your property and belongings to prevent theft or vandalism.

The Low Crime Rate in Chichester:

First, let's address the good news. Chichester boasts a lower crime rate compared to many urban areas in the UK. Our local police do an excellent job in maintaining security.

Home Security in Chichester:

However, burglaries can and do occur in our area. So, as a locksmith, here are some tips and insights to help you protect your Chichester home:

Lock It Up
Start with the basics. Ensure your doors and windows are locked securely when you're not at home. This simple step is often the best deterrent against break-ins.

Security Systems
Consider investing in a home security system. These can range from basic alarms to more advanced smart security systems. Having visible security measures can discourage potential burglars.

Neighborhood Watch
Chichester has an active community, and many areas have Neighborhood Watch programs. Joining one can increase your home's safety and foster a stronger sense of community.

Key Control
As a locksmith, I can't stress enough how important it is to control your keys. If you've ever lost a key or had one stolen, it's a good idea to rekey your locks or replace them for added peace of mind.

CCTV
Consider installing security cameras to deter criminals and provide valuable evidence in case of an incident.

Stay Informed
Keep an eye on local crime statistics and trends, especially in your neighborhood. The Sussex Police website is a valuable resource.

Remember, it's essential to take security seriously, but not at the cost of losing sight of what makes Chichester a wonderful place to live. By following these tips and staying connected with your community, you can help keep our city safe and vibrant. And if you ever need assistance with your locks or security systems, I'm here to help - your local Chichester locksmith. Stay safe, Chichester!

25% Of All Vehicle Thefts Now Involve The Use Of A Key

The latest UK crime statistics show an alarming rise in vehicle thefts involving the use of a key with 25 percent of all stolen vehicles now being taken with the original key or a cloned copy. It is important to lock your car, even when kept in a garage, and ensure your car keys are kept out of sight from the opportunist thief as a car which is stolen with the use of a key is unlikely to be covered in the event of an insurance claim.

Home Security in Autumn

As autumn approaches and the temperatures start to drop the nights start closing in.  Unfortunately darker evenings mean more opportunities for burglars so it's essential to look at your home security and make sure it's up to the job.  Anti snap locks, deadbolts and window locks will help to prevent most opportunist thieves and security lighting will deter intruders. If you are unsure how secure your home is, call your local LockRite Chichester locksmith today on 01243 213604 to arrange a home security survey.

Home Security in the Summer Months

As summer approaches and the days get warmer it is natural to leave windows open and doors ajar to keep homes cooler.  Unfortunately this can be an open invitation to the "sneak-in" opportunist burglar who will take advantage of open doors and windows and make off with small, expensive items such as mobile phones and laptops, or even a set of house keys to return later when the house is empty or everyone is asleep. If a burglary takes place without any visible signs of forced entry it can invalidate insurance claims, so it is important to remain security conscious in the summer.  One way to help prevent "sneak-in" burglaries is to install door security chains and window restrictors.  This allows doors and windows to be left open slightly while offering enough security to deter an opportunist thief. Call your local Chichester locksmith on 01243 213604 today to discuss your home security needs.

FAQ's

Frequently asked questions about our Chichester locksmith service.

  • Are your locksmiths local?
    Yes! Our locksmiths actually live within the locality they serve or close enough for a short commute. Not only does this mean they can be with you quickly (usually within 30-60 minutes) but it also means you are helping to support a local business rather than a company which has no interest in your community. Clive is your Chichester locksmith, covering Chichester and the surrounding areas.

    Yes we do. Customer satisfaction is the number one priority at LockRite. Our work is guaranteed with a 12 month manufacturers warranty on parts and 90 days guarantee on all workmanship.

We're also CHAS accredited and ISO9001 registered which demonstrates we take our health & safety responsibilities seriously.
  • What should I do while waiting for the locksmith to arrive?
    Please make sure we have a valid contact number for you (mobile/neighbours landline, etc) and that you are able to answer the phone in case the locksmith has problems locating you. Please don't tamper with the lock yourself as you could cause additional damage which may prove expensive to repair.
  • How long will it take for the locksmith to gain entry?
    If the lock is a standard rim cylinder type (Yale/Euro Cylinder) then in most instances entry can be gained quickly, sometimes within a matter of minutes. More complex locks such as five lever mortice deadlocks will take longer due to their inherently secure nature.
  • Do you provide commercial locksmith services?
    Yes we do. We regularly carry out work for commercial clients.
  • Do you provide a 24 hour locksmith service in Chichester?
    Yes, but the 24 hour service is subject to the locksmith's availability. Our 24 hour locksmith service is subject to the locksmith's availability at the time of your call.

However, in these cases, our team will try to source an alternative LockRite locksmith to attend.
  • How can I pay for work?
    We accept all major debit and credit cards and will also take cash on site. Payment can be made via a card terminal carried by our locksmiths or payments can be made by calling our head office and a receipt will be given.
