Breaks to sheds at allotments - Security Advice
We have had reports of break-ins to sheds at two allotments within Horsham this week.
Please follow these seven easy steps to make your allotment shed more secure and help prevent loss of valuable items:
1. Store items away from allotments
2. Fit a hasp and staple
3. Replace screws with coach bolts
4. Board up windows
5. Replace or repair damaged or weak shed panels
6. Chain garden tools together and use an anchor point
7. Property mark tools with your postcode and house number
