In the early hours of May 18th 2020, Falmouth Town Council were yet again the target of thieves.
At around 04.00 hrs, thieves gained illegal entry to the Mortuary grounds and council staff buildings at Swanpool Hill near Swanpool stealing various items used by the grounds and maintenance staff including a ride on mower, pressure washers, hand tools and a trailer amongst other items.
One of the maintenance team also had some personal equipment taken which he will have to replace at his own personal so it is hoped that all the items are covered by insurance.
They also removed number plates from a vehicle parked on the grounds and a number of keys for other council sites around the town.
At 09.00 hrs, Simon Penner from Falmouth Town Council called to request that we attend and undertake a number of lock changes at various locations starting with the Mortuary at Swanpool where the majority of the items had been removed.
Fortunately for Simon and the council, over the past 6 or more years, we have been upgrading the security on many of their sites including the council offices at the Municipal Building, the Art gallery and the town library on the Moor and many satellite buildings around the town making thefts from these buildings that much more difficult.
We have fitted high security locks which are insurance approved.
When these are incorporated with the CCTV and Intruder Alarm systems it provides a very strong deterrent in deed.
Owl Locksmiths and Security are able to provide a comprehensive solution to any situation so should you find that you are either the target of crime or just wish to upgrade your security, then please do get in touch to discuss possible options to protect your valuables or buildings.
We can secure any type of building and currently provide security to not only the Domestic Householders but other Commercial customer’s as well.
Whether it is replacement locks for the doors, CCTV, Intruder Alarms or an Access Control System, we have a large and varied list of regular clients including Industrial such as Watson Marlow in Falmouth, Hospitality customers, for instance Merchants Manor and The Highcliffe Contemporary Bed and Breakfast, Pubs and Clubs and Restaurant’s like Indidog on the Fish Strand Quay, Shops like The Cornish Oven, McColls, Sports Direct, we even have Schools and Churches such as Weeth Community Primary School, Roskear Primary School, Ponsanooth Pre-School and St Pirans in Hayle.
We secure a number of local churches like St Erth Parish Church, St Buryan Church, Mylor church and even a number of Doctors and Dental Practices not to mention our various Charities such as The Flicka Foundation and Sea Sanctuary.
The above are just a very small selection of our treasured customers and do not include all the hundreds if not thousands of private customers, caravan parks, councils and estate agents. We can therefore be confident that whatever your requirement, we will be able to assist in some way.
