Tips to increase Garage Security

Jako Bekker from Dominator South & East Auckland

Hi Neighbours, we've noticed increasing reports about break-ins and thefts throughout the community. Many thieves are targeting garages as entry points, knowing they often contain valuable items and potentially provide access to homes.
As your local garage door specialists, we want to help keep our community safe.

Here are some steps you can take:

✔️ Ensure it closes completely and latches properly, EVERY TIME!
✔️ Never leave your garage remote in your car
✔️ Upgrade to an automatic opener with rolling code technology
✔️ Add a motion sensor light and security camera near the garage
✔️ Considering installing a deadbolt to internal access doorways

Your garage door = your first line of defence. Is yours up to the task?
If you need help increasing your doors security flick us a message and we'd be happy to give you free advice. 💬
