SIA not to be abolished
On March 24 the House of Lords passed an amendment to the Public Bodies Bill to take the SIA (Security Industry Authority) out of the list of quangos to be abolished.
However, the Government has stressed this does not mean there has been a change in policy as it remains their intention to change the form of the SIA, but that this can be best achieved by new legislation.
The Government's aim is to have the new organisation in place by the end of 2013.

New Gate Safety Organisation
GATE SAFE has been set up following the death of two children and other potentially fatal incidents during last year.
Its goal is to bring together a broad cross-section of manufacturers, installers and those organisations responsible for safety in order to look at how the current safety measures can be improved to try and eliminate as far as possible any future accidents.
A well attended summit meeting unanimously agreed that urgent action was needed to stop any further injuries or fatalities caused by automated gates. Actions to be implemented included putting pressure where necessary to bring gate safety to the top of the political agenda, and to set up a working party to look at ways of achieveing safety regulation compliance for all installations.

Four ways to improve security of your home
If you live in an area likely to be targeted by thieves, particularly if you have an open driveway, there are many options as to how you can improve security to deter thieves or trespassers including:
1. Installing automatic residential driveway gates to keep out unwelcome visitors.
2. Adding anti-ram raid bollards and parking posts.
3. Fitting motorised driveway chain barriers.
4. Having manual or remote operated garage doors fitted with secure locking systems.
Whatever your requirements it is essential that only a properly qualified installer is used to ensure the equipment fitted meets the requirements, is reliable and above all, safe to use.

Security gates help keep criminals out
Burglary hot-spots can be made safer with the effective utilisation of security gates. Potential intruders will often be put off from entering properties that appear secure.
This has shown to be the case in Leeds and other UK towns and cities where officials have found that the fitting of secure barriers has effectively cut crime.
The very presence of security barriers or gates is often enough to deter individuals from trespassing as it suggests that the building behind the barrier is likely to be very secure and therefore too difficult for the average thief to attempt to enter.
Atlas can provide security solutions for residential or busines properties, whatever their size or location. Browse the website and check out our installations and satisfied customers before calling us on

Increase your peace of mind with security gates
If you want to increase your home security, fitting automatic gates can help to deter burglars.
While there are many security measures that can help to prtotect your home from vandalism and theft, it is important to back these up by sticking to certain rules.
Always lock doors - even if you are in. The fact that you are at home will not deter many burglars so keeping all entry points secure is a sensible precaution.
If there is a security system fitted, restrict the code to those members of the household that need to know and, as with your credit cards and computer, don't use an obvious code like a birth date.
