      Dear All, we would like residents to ensure that their shed and garages are kept locked and secured, especially if they contain expensive items.  There have been reports of break-ins to sheds and garages across Edinburgh.  Please be vigilant and report anything suspicious to the police.  Key points for shed/garage security are here:

      ·         Use a good quality closed shackled padlock

      ·         Fit coach bolts or anti tamper screws on shed hinges

      ·         Install a stand-alone shed alarm

      ·         Secure bikes within sheds/garages to a ground anchor or immovable object

      ·         Review the lighting and fencing around your property

      ·         Consider a garage defender

       

      Kind regards,  PC Evelyn Hegarty, Edinburgh Police Division
