A damaged door or broken window can leave your London property exposed. Call Rapid Secure and we’ll prioritise making it secure. In most cases, our team will arrive within an hour of your call, at any time of day or night, with no call out fee.
Our engineers inspect the damage on arrival and choose a suitable way to secure each opening. The boarding helps prevent entry, keep out the weather and protect the interior until permanent repairs can be arranged. Experienced professional securing can also matter to an insurance claim; check your policy for any requirements that apply to the work.
During the boarding-up visit, our engineer can measure for replacement glass or a new door. Taking measurements then avoids a separate measuring appointment and helps the permanent repair move forward. We also provide emergency glazing, window and door repairs and replacements, and emergency locksmith work, so one team can help put things right.
Tell us what has happened, which windows or doors need securing and the address in London or the surrounding area.
We’ll give you an instant quote based on the boarding-up work required.
Within one hour, our team will arrive and start work to secure the damaged property.
Rapid Secure works with the Metropolitan Police Service across London’s 32 boroughs and with City of London Police in the Square Mile. We also support police forces and emergency services across the UK, providing dependable boarding-up assistance around the clock.
