Security

[Bernard11]

Our caravan is stored at the side of our house behind a gate/fence - which for some years has been OK. The caravan is well protected with a hitchlock, concrete slabs in front and a security light. However, recently someone has on two occasions climbed the fence into our back garden and tried to gain entry -we think children, as an an adult would presumably have gained access if they wanted.

Already had to change a lock and there is some minor damage.

Any recommemdation for a caravan alarm or other security measure that may help?

Thanks

Bernard

Bernard, we have had to resort to security cameras connected to the video recorder to record any goings on , and so far this has resulted in 3 people being caught attempting to access our van.

A double camera system from B&Q is good enough if the cameras are sited well, and a 100w floodlight is better than a higher wattage at night.

Tack some gripperrod to the top of the fence

Bernard,

You could also grow some berberis up the fence.( as well as the gripperrod of course ).

Possibly the sight of a gibbet with a noose might help.........

Good luck mate

In addition to the gripper rods I would suggest also paint underseal [ soft type ] along the top as well.

Its a cheap option and it works. But only to keep kids out. If they were desperate all they have to do is throw a piece of carpet over the top of the fence.

Your best bet is an alarm of some sort.
