If you run your own business you’ll understand the importance of having an adequate fire protection system.  Essential for not only protecting your customers, clients or staff, fire protection is an essential requirement when it comes to insurance and meeting health and safety legislation.

Whether you are an employer, business owner, landlord or occupier of business premises, it is your responsibility to ensure that those who use the building are safe from the risk of fire.  At Dalec we are specialists in providing fire protection for business and commercial clients throughout Leeds.

Our expertise covers everything from small commercial premises and single offices, through to multi floor office buildings which require complex, multi-zone systems.

It’s very important to remember that regardless of the size or age of your fire protection system, it will require expert maintenance to ensure that it continues to work safely and offers the protection you require.  We offer a range of fire protection maintenance services, designed to offer the peace of mind that your system is reliable, but to also limit unwanted system failures, helping you to meet legislation and insurance requirements.

We’ve heard reports of a dramatic increase in the number of bike thefts from garages and sheds in Ilkley, Burley-in-Wharfedale, Ben Rhydding and Addingham.  Whilst many homeowners ensure that their home is protected with a security alarm, garages and sheds are often left un-protected and at risk from burglars.

When you stop to consider that your garage can be home to some very valuable equipment – whether it’s expensive bikes, power tools, sports equipment or even a lawn mower – protecting outdoor buildings seems like a very good idea indeed!

Here at Dalec we’re specialists in all aspects of home security and are happy to offer advice on protecting your shed or garage.  Many homeowners don’t realise that many home security systems can be installed to incorporate out buildings and if you already have a home security system, we’re happy to offer guidance on the best way to incorporate your shed or garage into the system.

Security lighting can also prove to be an effective deterrent to burglars and by installing dusk-to-dawn security lighting or motion sensor lighting is yet another great way to protect your shed or garage.

Whilst spring seems to be finally well, springing, we know that the temptation can be to leave windows open whilst you go out.

Letting fresh air into your home is, of course, a great idea especially after such a long, wet winter, but by leaving even small windows open, you are leaving your home susceptible to intruders.  Here at Dalec you’ll find that we install a wide range of home security options with solutions to suit all budgets and styles of property.

Window locks are the most effective way to safeguard your windows and whilst UPVC window frames are fitted with window locks, older frames and non-UPVC windows can prove to be very easy for thieves to prise open.  We can offer advice on securing your windows and our range of security alarms are designed to offer additional protection and peace of mind that your home and its contents is safe.
