Insulate your offices and workplace from the threat of ram-raids

Unfortunately, ram-raids are not treated as their own offences in the UK, and isn’t a term used by police or the CPS beyond describing the type of robbery, which makes it difficult to understand the real scope of this problem. As criminals become more sophisticated and the cost of living crisis grows, ram-raids are becoming all too frequent in the media.

Broadcaster and news provider ITV has set up a special news section devoted entirely to reporting on ram-raids. The issue is widespread enough that councils are taking action, South Cambridgeshire council spent £100,000 on its own form of ram-raid protection to deter would-be-thieves from stealing ATMs or breaking into shops.

Since 2021, only 3.9% of all robberies investigated by the police have resulted in a criminal charge. Businesses need to take their safety into their own hands and make use of ram-raid protection solutions to make sure they’re never a target.

FAQs

Why does a business need anti ram-raid protection?

With the increasing sophistication of criminals combined with the reduction in investigation of robberies, businesses are increasingly left to fend for themselves. The police have fewer and fewer resources to adequately investigate these crimes, and often many cases go unclosed without a single suspect identified.

That’s why you need to take your safety into your own hands. The potential cost of a ram-raid on a UK high street business can be anywhere from £10,000 to £60,000. For many businesses, that could be enough to drive them out of business. The emotional cost of ram-raids shouldn’t be ignored either as it can destroy the motivation and confidence of a business owner.

How often does SECOM perform maintenance of its installed emergency lighting systems?

We perform regular audits and checks on installed anti ram-raid protection. Since every business is different, we perform these checks at regular intervals that make sense for you and your business.

Speak to our teams about our audits and maintenance, and we will work with you to visit as regularly as you need.

Why does my physical security need to be bespoke?

Every office holds its unique fingerprint, even those designed identically. That’s why our assessors make on-site visits—to grasp your business’s layout and tailor an efficient anti ram-raid protection.
