Residential burglaries

There have been a series of burglaries around Palmers Green BR Station. The suspects gain entry from the rear of the premises and then smash a window to gain entry.
There has also been a problem in the Oakwood area where the suspect generally climbs on to the garage roof and then smashes a side first floor window to gain entry.

Advice? Make sure you get a house alarm fitted and have a good look at your garage/rear extension. If you feel access could be achieved by either means ensure you have passive alarm sensors installed in key bedrooms etc. as well as downstairs.

As a by the by, I would suggest using either monitored alarm systems or ones where the system can be setup to automatically call a list of telephone numbers (your mobile phone for example) with a pre-recorded message in the event of activation.
