Top tips To protect your garden office

With the rise in professionals working from home, becoming self-employed or freelance, there is an increased interest in creating a home work environment, something that is completely separate from the home. But how can you make sure this is kept secure? 

The 'Lite Pod' Office by Pod Space

When it comes to buying a garden office they can be big money, you want to look for something that not only fits your budget but the dimensions of the space you have in your garden. You might be looking at a bespoke garden room created by a local carpenter or perhaps you have set your heart on a garden pod. 

Whatever your style and design you choose, these top security tips should keep your new garden office space secure. 

1. Choose PVC doors that preferably open inwards to prevent hinges being removed. 
2. Ensure windows are PVC with key locking system. 
3. Place any valuables out of site when not in use. 
4. Ensure your garden is secure by locking your gate at night. 
5. Installing a motion sensor external light may provide some peace of mind during the darker winter months. 
6. Install internal shutters or blinds to block out the view of the interior when you exit the office. 
7. Install a motion detector 'P.I.R' inside the unit which will be connected to your wireless home alarm system. 
8. Keep track of your security on the go with our home alarm security app. 
9. CCTV can also be installed where mains electric exists
