Advice:

Deeside  Neighbourhood Policing Team are asking members of the public to be vigilant with their shed security following a spate of shed break ins and theft of pedal cycles in the Shotton area

Sheds are an easy target for thieves; they often contain £400-500 worth of property such as bikes, power tools, garden tools, garden furniture, lawnmowers etc. Even if there’s nothing of value stored in your shed, spades, screwdrivers and other simple tools can be used to break into your home.  Download the shed-ucated information leaflet

Neighbourhood Watch

Talk to your neighbours about starting a scheme in your street. For advice on setting up your NHW Scheme contact your local Police Officer or PCSO.

The vast majority of bicycle thefts are opportunist thefts. It only takes a few seconds for the opportunist to take a bike which is not secured.

There are a number of bikes stolen each year from within peoples own properties, either from sheds or garages.

  • Lock it or lose it – even if you just pop to the shops for two minutes, many thefts are opportunistic.
  • Always lock your bike to an immovable object. Don’t just lock the frame to the wheel.
  • Leave your bike in a well-lit area where it can easily be seen by others.
  • Remove anything that can’t be secured – such as lamps and pumps.

Register your bike

  • Permanently mark your bike using a police preferred product.
