Safe and Secure Scheme
This project is aimed at assisting some of the most vulnerable members of the community by providing increased security to homes. Our carpenters are crime prevention trained by the Police and will fit a range of equipment, free of charge in most cases, to reduce crime and the fear of crime.
Working in partnership with the Crime and Disorder Reduction Partnerships (CDRP’s), R G Carter Ltd , John Youngs Ltd, Norwich Union, the District Councils, Age Concern, Victim Support and various Housing Associations ,Norfolk PACT has undertaken work on many thousands of properties.
During these visits the carpenters fitted many different types of equipment including , Five Lever Mortice Locks, Five Lever Deadlocks, Yale locks, Security bolts, Window locks, Eye viewers, Kick panels, Door chains, Lockable door chains, Patio door bolts, Euro Cylinders and Door mirrors.
The Safe and Secure scheme is not just about fitting security hardware to properties – it is about education and ensuring that door chains, locks etc are used in the correct manner. Many burglaries are committed by opportunists who take advantage of open windows or unlocked doors. Our carpenters take great care to reassure elderly and often vulnerable residents that Norfolk is one of the safest places in the country in which to live but that care needs to be taken to ensure that it remains so as we all have a part to play in keeping Norfolk safe.
By working in partnership with Norfolk Fire Service we have also been able to fit smoke alarms a service which has now been extended on a countywide basis.
If you or someone you know could benefit from this free service then call 01953 424727 for more information
