Rising Demand for Electric Driveway Gates in Surrey
The Surrey police have an extensive area to cover. It stretches from Epsom and Kingston Upon Thames in the east, to Farnham and Aldershot in the west. Whilst there are no big cities located in Surrey, the mix of towns and villages means that the police can get over-stretched as they travel between reported crime scenes.
The current crime stats present a hopeful picture for residents across the county. Whilst the towns bear the burden of crime, as you would expect, the overall figures for burglary and anti-social behaviour are down on the previous year. By contrast, violent crime has increased substantially. PCC David Munro has sought to reassure county residents that Surrey remains one of the safest places to live in the UK.
Electric Driveway Gates in Surrey Prevent Crime
We never make assumptions, but the 1st Choice Security Systems team has noticed a growth in the demand for security gates across the county over the past 12 months. When we see trends like this occurring in a geographical area, we’re aware that there are a number of reasons for them.
With security gates, these include:
- Protection. Families and businesses consider automatic gates an excellent way to protect both property, and family members.
- Value. Good looking security gates add value to your home. 1st Choice Security designs and installs bespoke electric gates which reflect your style and preferred aesthetic.
- Peace of Mind. Whether you’re leaving your home to go to work, or leaving your businesses premises to go home, automatic gates provide you with peace of mind.
Electric Gates as Part of Your Security System
1st Choice Security engineers are always happy to visit clients in Surrey who are thinking of installing electric driveway gates. We’ll discuss the style and texture of your security gates, and consider whether a sliding or swing gate would be more appropriate. If your driveway is on an incline, or space is limited, a swing gate will normally be the answer. We always provide free no obligation quotes.
Whilst professionally installed automatic gates go a long way to deterring opportunistic crime, they don’t provide comprehensive access control. Should you wish to strengthen the protection afforded by security gates, there are a range of measures we can put in place:
- Door Entry System. This is an excellent way to control who has access to your premises. Our door entry systems provide either audio, or visual communications. You’re able to see, or hear visitors before you let them in.
- CCTV. Cameras placed at vulnerable points on your premises give you 24 hour feedback on anyone attempting to enter your premises, or home. Digital cameras now allow for a visual feed to your mobile phone.
