Good advice from Merseyside Police.

If they can see it, they will try it.

Windows are often targeted as a quick and easy way to gain entry. Burglars target windows as they can offer easier access than doors.

🔒 Check your property from the outside and make sure windows are closed and locked. Remove anything that could be used to gain access.

Your home is only as secure as its weakest point of entry.
