Exceed - we fix windows & doors
Hi neighbours,
We just joined the Neighbourly community and we would like to introduce ourselves…
We are Paul and Lee Brumby and we are the Exceed we fix windows & doors franchise owners for Takapuna, Waitakere North and surrounding areas.
We offer reliable and guaranteed window & door repairs and we can help you fix:
- Stiff, jamming sliding doors and rollers that are heavy and don't like to slide.
- Windows that swing fully open and cannot be reached to close again.
- Broken window latches, handles.
- Draughty homes where heat escapes from gaps around doors and windows.
- Old locks on windows or doors that stick and jam.
As well as helping you keep your home in good shape by fixing problem doors & windows, we can install retractable insect screens and security doors to keep your home and family safe.
When you book a visit with us, we’ll arrive on time (or phone you if we are unavoidably delayed). Our vans are fully-equipped, so we won’t need to rush off to get parts. We’ll take care in your home, wear protective shoe covers and promise to clean up before we leave. We wear photographic ID and have been security profiled for your peace of mind.
Exceed technicians have been helping New Zealanders enjoy health, safe and secure homes for more than 30 years.
Learn more about our team and services on our website or give us a call on 0800 25 25 00
Cheers,
The Exceed - we fix windows & doors team in Takapuna & Waitakere North – Paul and Lee
Six tips for improving security around your home
1) Improve outdoor lighting
Ensure that streets, driveways, and front yards are well-lit. Motion-sensor lights around homes deter trespassers by reducing hiding spots and illuminating their movements.
2) Trim your trees
Overgrown shrubs and trees provide cover for intruders. Keeping them well-trimmed around windows and doors improves visibility and reduces potential hiding spots.
3) Secure Entry Points
Ensure doors, windows, and gates are always closed when you are away from the house. Upgrade to more secure locks, deadbolts, or even smart locks for added protection.
4) Add a security camera
Place security cameras in the main entry points to your home. Doorbell cameras are also relatively cheap and a great way to keep track of who is visiting your home when you aren't there.
5) Start a Neighborhood Watch Program
You could reach out to members on Neighbourly to form a group of neighbors who can regularly keep an eye out for suspicious activity and report it. You could also check with Neighbourhood Support to see what is existing in your area.
6) Introduce yourself to your neighbours
The closer you are to your neighbors, the more likely they’ll notice when something unusual or suspicious is happening around your property
Feel free to share anything that you do around your area to deter crime.
