Protecting Your Property in Trethomas

Given Trethomas's property crime rate of 22.9 per 1,000 people per year, which is lower than the UK average, it is still prudent for residents to consider robust home security. Traditional security measures, such as basic CCTV, often only provide footage after a burglary has occurred. For truly effective protection, a proactive approach is essential. Systems like scOS utilise AI to detect threats at your property boundary, preventing crime before it escalates. This multi-camera intelligence continuously monitors your property, learning routines and verifying vehicles to minimise false alarms and alert only to genuine threats. Professional-grade deterrence, with visible security features, can make a significant difference; most burglars decide to move on within 60 seconds if a property appears too challenging. While DIY systems have their place, investing in professional, proactive security offers a superior level of protection, moving beyond simply recording a crime to actively preventing it.
