Security
13.1 Protecting your holiday home
and possessions
Windows and doors
Always close and lock windows and doors
when leaving your holiday home, even if only for
a few minutes. Consider fitting additional locks
wherever necessary; ask your park/distributor/
dealer for details on security locks.
i Note: It is very important, however, that
any additional locks fitted to designated
escape routes (i.e. door(s) and windows) are
immobilised during occupation so that your
escape remains unhindered.
Gas Cylinders
Keep them chained together and fastened to
the substructure of your holiday home. Always
use a good quality padlock.
Lights and alarms
Many devices, both battery powered and
electrical, are available to the DIY enthusiast. A
light inside your holiday home at night suggests
it is occupied.
Electricity triggered to turn on as darkness falls
or battery operated with a time switch, the light
will help deter thieves. Ask your park/distributor/
dealer for details on electrical intruder alarms.
Marking your property with your postcode and
house number would help the police identify
the owners of stolen goods. Advertising the fact
that your property is so identified may act as a
deterrent. Property can be marked by etching,
die-stamping, branding, engraving or by using a
security marker pen.
Organise yourselves on the park site so that
everyone keeps an eye open for strangers or
anything suspicious.
Report any unusual activity to the park manager
or the police.
When your holiday home is left unattended for
long periods, take any extra precautions and
remove any items that are valuable or portable.
i
Note: Holiday homes on parks are
vulnerable not only in summer but also in
winter.

your holiday home, protecting your valuables
