Tips to increase Garage Security

Jako Bekker from Dominator South & East Auckland

Hi Neighbours, we've noticed increasing reports about break-ins and thefts throughout the community. Many thieves are targeting garages as entry points, knowing they often contain valuable items and potentially provide access to homes.
As your local garage door specialists, we want to help keep our community safe.

Here are some steps you can take:

✔️ Ensure it closes completely and latches properly, EVERY TIME!
✔️ Never leave your garage remote in your car
✔️ Upgrade to an automatic opener with rolling code technology
✔️ Add a motion sensor light and security camera near the garage
✔️ Considering installing a deadbolt to internal access doorways

Your garage door = your first line of defence. Is yours up to the task?
If you need help increasing your doors security flick us a message and we'd be happy to give you free advice. 💬

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
