For most people, owning their own home, whether it's a house or a condominium, a new build or the modernization of an old building, is one of the biggest challenges they will face in the course of their lives.

However, very few house builders think to consider protection against burglary and theft when planning the construction and modernization.

The Salzgitter/Peine/Wolfenbüttel police inspectorate has produced the brochure "Security ... right from the start!" for interested builders, drawing their attention to possible security weak points in a house or apartment and offering them possible solutions for securing their house/flat against burglary.
