Roofs can often be overlooked when security systems are put in place and yet they are often used as access point to intrude a building. Installing a sensor in the roof as a preventative measure can really help in cutting down the risk.

Here are some tips to keep your roof burglar-proof:
- All rooftop hatchways, air ducts and air vents should be covered by security bars that are securely fastened. Glass skylights should have burglary-resistant glass and security bars or a steel grill.
- Don’t make it easy for the burglars to get up on your roof by having exterior ladders or a trash container against your exterior wall. Ladders to your roof can be relocated indoors and you can move and secure your trash container away from your exterior wall.
- Install motion sensors in your ceilings to detect any movement.
- Place beams around your premises so that trespassers can be detected before even making it to your roof.
- Ensure that you have sufficient lighting around your premises to deter criminals from entering your premises and increasing your chances of seeing someone lurking around your garden.
