Interesting comment from the insurance industry:

Home security measures working
Improvements in home security are proving to be effective at tackling crime, the British Security Industry Association (BSIA) said this week.
The BSIA claimed that the latest British Crime Survey for 2004/5 contained "considerable evidence" of the effectiveness of security measures in the home.
Security was shown to be the most significant determining factor in whether a household experienced a burglary or not, it said. Also, homes where an attempt at burglary had failed were more likely to have a burglar alarm, double/dead locks, window locks or use security lighting.
BSIA chief executive David Dickinson said: "This report illustrates the important role that security can play in reducing the risk of being a victim of crime. The majority of home security measures are common sense and low cost, and can result in reduced insurance premiums."

The report showed that 30% of homeowners now owned a burglar alarm.

Errr, old news??
It's a shame the insurance companies don't encourage people to implement increased security by rewarding them - noticeable reductions in premiums

Not knocking it Roger. I feel the insurance industry should make more noise about benefits of security systems, why they don't is the mystery.

Strange business insurance. They like a reasonable number of claims ..... it encourages customers to buy insurance, so they aren't too bothered about reducing the number of domestic break-ins. What they don't want is large or fraudulent claims and that is why they often impose conditions on people with high value items or with criminal convictions.
