National Home Security Month from Yale is back to boost security sales this autumn

National Home Security Month (NHSM) from Yale is back from 1st October, with the campaign in its twelfth year of encouraging UK homeowners to upgrade their home security.

When the clocks go back, crime goes up by as much as 34%i  as opportunist burglars make use of the darker nights.

NHSM runs throughout October, raising awareness of the need to prioritise home security as we head into the colder months.

The first line of defence for homeowners is the front door. One of the easiest and most effective ways to secure it is to invest in a maximum-security cylinder that will prevent lock-snapping – one of the most common techniques used by criminals.

Solutions with the TS007 BSI Kitemark and three-star protection, such as the Yale Platinum 3-Star Cylinder, do exactly this.

Another common entry point is through the window, meaning window security should also be a high priority.

Window handles such as Yale’s TS007 2-star security handle provide the highest level of security available, and when combined with a 1-Star Cylinder, offer the ultimate protection against a range of known attack methods.

Allowing users to monitor their homes remotely, high-quality smart security solutions also offer powerful protection against the threat of opportunistic burglars.

Yale SensCheck™ integrated smart window and door lock sensors, for example, provide homeowners with the option to check the status of their doors and windows on their smart devices and phones, wherever they are.

Yale has also recently announced the launch of its new Smart Security Ecosystem, designed to provide trade professionals with a range of devices to suit all customer needs, providing seamless integration and heightened security for homeowners.

The Smart Security Ecosystem includes new Smart Security Cameras, one camera for indoor security protection and one for outdoor use, and for additional front door protection, the inclusion of the new Smart Video Doorbell.

Karl Woolley, Head of Product Management, Yale Retail UK, comments:

“Raising awareness of home security vulnerabilities at this time of year continues to be hugely important, and the reason why we created the National Home Security Month campaign in 2013.

“After 12 years, NHSM is back once again to make homeowners aware of the current threats, providing advice, support and product recommendations to encourage a necessary home security upgrade.

“This provides a fantastic opportunity for merchants and trade professionals to benefit from increased demand and therefore sales during this profitable autumn, winter period.”
