Tender description

Gating has proven to be an effective tool in reducing opportunistic theft and those instances of burglary where offenders have accessed premises from the rear. The gates provide a physical barrier, which make rear alleyways more difficult to access and exit, reducing their appeal to an offender. Whilst gates are primarily utilised as a burglary prevention tool, they also provide other ancillary benefits, such as reducing opportunities for fly tipping and criminal activities such as anti social behaviour which can occur in alleys and other spaces. Gating has an important role in helping residents to feel safer and reducing the fear of crime in an area. Keywords: Installation, Repairs , Maintenance , Alley, Gates
