Burglary Protection During Holiday Season: How to Keep Your Business Property Safe

Criminals strike when businesses are empty. Learn how to protect your premises during holidays with smart planning, technology, and professional guarding.

Why the Holiday Season Is a High-Risk Period

Empty offices, closed workshops and deserted company premises: during holidays, burglars have an easy time. Many businesses reduce operations, shut down machines or close sites completely – perfect conditions for criminal activity. A well-thought-out security strategy is essential, especially now.

Identify Weak Points and Secure Them Effectively

Common Security Gaps in Commercial Properties

Burglars specifically target poorly secured buildings. Frequent vulnerabilities include:

  • Entrances with weak door or window locks
  • Unlit outdoor areas and access roads
  • Unmonitored storage areas or annexes

Preventive Structural Measures

Even small structural changes can significantly improve security:

  • Security fittings and multi-point locks on doors
  • Protective bars and reinforced glass on windows
  • Fences, barriers and secure external gates

Smart Surveillance with Modern Technology

Video Surveillance and Alarm Systems

Technology not only deters criminals – it also provides evidence and enables rapid response:

  • Network-enabled cameras with motion detection
  • Concealed sensors on doors, gates and windows
  • Immediate alarm forwarding to security services or police

Remote Monitoring and Live Access

With modern tools, you can monitor your property even while on vacation:

  • Live camera access via app or browser
  • Push notifications for motion or alarm triggers
  • Connection to security control centers for immediate action

Professional Guarding: Security with a System

Mobile Patrols and Security Rounds

Visible presence is one of the most effective deterrents:

  • Regular patrols at varied intervals
  • Inspection of entrances, windows and outdoor areas
  • Digitally recorded control logs

24/7 On-Site Guarding

For high-risk properties, 24/7 guarding is a worthwhile investment:

  • Permanent presence of trained security staff
  • Access control and visitor registration
  • Alarm response and coordination with emergency services
