Business owners are being urged to ensure that their vacant properties are as safe and secure as possible to protect them from harm during the latest COVID-19 induced lockdown. The warning comes from globally renowned security barrier experts at Hardstaff Barriers, who specialize in protecting premises against squatters, thieves, arsonists and fly-tippers.
On January 4, 2021 the UK Government urged people, once again, not to travel to their places of work and to work from home (WFH) if it is possible to do so. Since then, this has resulted in many more premises being locked up, with staff no longer occupying the buildings and providing a natural deterrence against theft or damage.

Securing vacant properties
Scott Rose, Business Development Manager at Hardstaff Barriers, said “Vacant properties are an easy target for squatters, thieves, arsonists and fly-tippers, so it is important that security measures are taken into account to ensure the safety of commercial property and land. Not only in terms of access to the land itself but also access to the unit entrances too.”
Scott adds, “With no known end to the latest lockdown, properties may be locked up and out of use for many more weeks to come, or even months, so it is vital that businesses have suitable protection in place.”
