June is approaching. Goodness! That was quick; but it does mean garden parties and barbecues are more likely. And who doesn’t enjoy a bit of socialising?

Having family and friends visit you means lots of unwatched vehicles in your drive.

Unless…

With a CCTV camera and super effective outdoor lighting, you’re set for when the sun goes down and the party hots up.

We are very competitive with prices and stock a huge range with quality and durability in mind. Just look at our website shop to see what we offer.

For the sake of the safety of your property and that of your visitors' vehicles, it’s worth giving us a call or visit our website.

We look forward to hearing from you soon.

While the nights are now lighter and we’re enjoying brighter mornings, it makes us all feel that much more alive. But, on a darker note, that feeling spreads to opportunists too.

At Mrk2 Security, we’ve years of experience behind us to advise you on our entire range but also on the situations that might occur when we least expect it. Have you ever considered CCTV for your home or office?

It’s definitely worth thinking about.

While we don’t want to alarm you, you only need to be away from your premises for ten minutes to be burgled if someone has been studying your routine or see what products you’ve purchased.

Here’s a few tips to help you reduce your chances of attracting the wrong audience:

.Remember the box your giant TV was delivered in? Don’t just discard it for the weekly rubbish removals. This is a sure fire way to highlight that you’re now the proud owner of an item that can be stolen. Advertising this box in the street is a big no no. Tear it into smaller pieces and dispose of it between the boxes the pet food came in. The same goes for your computer box too.

. Sure your new car is shiny and a blessing to ease your lifestyle, but if it is on the road or the drive – potentially parked next to the garage it ought to be inside, it’s just another piece of excitement for that joyrider.

. Be aware of what you say when you are queuing up in shops. It only takes one set of ears to hear that your late grandmother’s diamond ring is fine tucked away inside the top draw in your bedroom. That thief will watch you get into your car and follow you home. The rest is easy pickings for them.

Discreet CCTV fixed to your home or your office is a small way to deter the attention of the bad guys and we’ll help you achieve that prevention. Get in touch soon or pop into our shop.

April is here, nearly gone and the pleasant spring weather is still missing. Sadly, that doesn't deter criminals from pursuing their chosen occupation.

Looking at the latest figures (February, 2018) from Essex Police, crimes against the home such as burglary, criminal damage and arson showed a slight fall compared to the previous months. However, this is no sign that any of us can become complacent. There were still 949 burglaries in the county in February 2018, so the need for good security measures, up to date, well maintained alarms and CCTV systems, is as great as ever.

The good news is that with the longer hours of daylight, we can fit in more free security audits for homes and business premises. So, to make sure that what you have stays yours and to make the criminals' lives as difficult as possible, call us on the number shown or click in the header of any page to send us an email.

Even though the weather is going to start getting colder soon, don`t worry because we still have plenty of sunshine to enjoy while this month is with us. With that sunshine, however, we occasionally find ourselves attracting unwanted attention, that attention may be in the form of someone wanting access inside your premises.

Pretty soon the evenings will be drawing in so much that by 8pm it will be pitch black outside - perfect for those who enjoy loitering in the darkness. If your premises, at home or at work, could do with a safety check, then you'll be thrilled to learn that our regular customers enjoy a professional yet friendly service. If, like them, you prefer to deal with a business that puts your needs ahead of the game, then look no further.

It makes sense, therefore, to use those darkening evenings for cosying up with your family and enjoying the peace of mind good security can bring. We look forward to seeing you soon.

Anti-crime charity, Crimestoppers is working to reduce burglaries in Essex over the Christmas period, which is sadly a time that this kind of crime reaches a peak. They are sending out 120,000 postcards to homes in the area, asking for information.

Stuart Rawlins, Chairman of Essex Crimestoppers added: “Being burgled is not just about losing possessions, it also robs you of feeling safe in your own home. People should be able to feel secure and confident in their homes."

Prevention though, is always so much better than cure. Effective alarm systems and CCTV installations can deter thieves and help make sure that your property is safe over the holiday season.
