Every building must have preventive measures to prevent burglary. Unfortunately, we do not live in a society where everyone can just walk in with you, with the assurance that all your belongings are still present afterwards. A properly functioning lock on the door is an essential part of burglary protection in this case. However, preventive measures in the field of property security go much further, if there is reason to do so. For example, a bank also has a well-functioning safe, so that the bank's properties are well protected. If you own a home with a lot of valuable property, or a business building that is more sensitive to burglary for some reason, it is worth thinking about extra burglary protection. Holland Locksmith can assist you with this.

The importance of burglary prevention

Just under 200 burglaries occur every day in the Netherlands. There are quite a few! That is why it is very important that you properly protect your property against burglary and reduce its susceptibility to burglary by taking preventive measures. In any case, you can achieve this by choosing a good lock that bears the Police Seal for Safe Living: this already largely prevents anyone from ending up in your building without permission. You can always contact Holland Locksmith for certified locks, which are placed with you by our team of experienced professionals in accordance with all legal regulations.


A burglary can cause a lot of damage, both materially and emotionally. Burglars often steal not only things that are worth a lot of money, but also with an emotional value such as jewelry or heirlooms. That is why we at Holland Locksmith attach great importance to information and advice in the field of burglary prevention, so that such annoying scenarios can be prevented.

How do you ensure solid burglary protection?

Burglary prevention naturally starts where burglars have the easiest access to your home or business premises: the front door. By ensuring a strong door with a well-functioning lock, you can easily keep most of the burglars out. In addition to cylinder locks, we also have multi-point locks and anti-core pulling protection in our range. These secure your door at multiple points, so things like a crowbar or tactics such as core pulling have virtually no effect. We also ensure that the lock is of excellent quality and properly installed, so that you can stay safely in your building and also leave with a pleasant feeling.

Frequently Asked Questions

In which places in my house can burglary protection help?

A well-functioning lock is the basis, but in some cases you will have to take more measures to put burglars out of the game. Think of securing other access doors such as a back door or garage. Windows can also pose a risk if they cannot be closed properly. A good example are old-fashioned windows that can be lifted upwards, because they are not closed from the inside. We are happy to provide you with expert advice in the field of burglary prevention, in addition to our regular activities as a locksmith.

Can you help with damage repair after burglary?

In the unlikely event that a burglary has taken place in your building, you will often have to repair and repair certain parts. Burglars often come in with a tool that damages your door and of course the lock on your door. In that case it is very important that you repair the damage as soon as possible, in order to prevent the burglars from entering again. We help you in that regard by at least repairing your lock or installing a new lock if it has been irreparably damaged.

How to prevent a burglary in the future?

After a break-in, we always recommend installing a new lock. Why? Because there is a good chance that burglars may have grabbed a copy of the key. Even when they have entered other access roads via the door. Many people believe that a lock does not need to be replaced, because the lock is still intact. However, reality shows that there is a chance that you can still experience burglary. Therefore, immediately replace your locks after a break-in to ensure your sense of security.
