Why should you use this standard? Most burglaries are committed by offenders who have been given easy opportunities to commit crimes. The most basic levels of security can deter criminals. The aim of this standard is to provide guidance for those responsible for building homes, to enable them to make neighbourhoods attractive to residents and unattractive to burglars, by reducing the opportunities for crime through building detail, landscaping and site layout. BS 8220 Part 1 covers measures to enhance the security of windows and external doors, access control, the use and deployment of security lighting, CCTV, intruder detection systems, and measures to improve security and reduce fear of crime.
