Immediate Steps: What to Do Right Now After a Break-In
If you have arrived home or at your business premises to find your property compromised, please follow these essential steps in order:
1. Check You Are Safe
If you suspect an intruder may still be inside or you are in immediate danger, do not enter the property and call 999. Follow the instructions given by the police and only enter when you are satisfied it is safe to do so.
2. Call 101 – Obtain a Crime Reference Number
If the burglary is no longer in progress and there is no immediate danger, report it to the police by calling 101 or using your local police force’s online reporting service. You should receive a Crime Reference Number, which your insurer may ask for when you make a claim.
3. Photograph All Damage for Insurance Claims
Before cleaning up or touching anything, document all forced entry points. Take clear photos of snapped cylinders, damaged door frames, shattered glass, and disturbed items. These will serve as crucial evidence for your insurance company.
4. Call Vlad at VB Locksmith Services – 07883444240
We treat post-burglary call-outs as an urgent priority. Contact Vlad directly to arrange a locksmith visit. We can secure damaged locks and doors, replace attacked locks with suitable British Standard or high-security options where appropriate, repair damaged keeps and locking hardware, and provide an itemised invoice or receipt for your records or insurer.

Securing Door Locking Points: Repairing, adjusting or replacing damaged keeps, locking points and related door hardware so the door can lock securely again.

Our aim is to restore secure operation and provide clear, professional advice following a break-in.
Professional Burglary Locksmith: Beyond Basic Repairs
After a break-in, damage is often concentrated around locks, cylinders, keeps and locking mechanisms. VB Locksmith Services can assess the affected entry points, repair or replace damaged locking hardware and recommend suitable security upgrades to help restore the security of your property.
Post-Burglary Security Assessment and Upgrades
After securing the immediate lock or door hardware problem, we can assess the affected entry points and recommend practical security improvements where appropriate.
This may include:
• Upgrading vulnerable euro cylinders to TS007 3-star anti-snap options where suitable.
• Fitting suitable British Standard locks to timber doors.
• Adjusting or replacing damaged keeps and locking hardware.
• Improving door locking security with suitable high-security lock options.
Why We Fit TS007 3-Star Anti-Snap Cylinders
TS007 3-star anti-snap cylinders provide enhanced protection against common forms of attack on euro-profile locks. Where suitable, we recommend these high-security cylinders for uPVC and composite doors to improve resistance to forced entry and strengthen overall door security.
