Aspects of the Burglar Check

There are a lot of different subjects regarding Burglar Safety. Together with our expert you will decide on how important certain measures are in your particular situation. Examples of measures are:

  • Are there quality (preferably multi-point) locks on the outer doors?
  • Are the outer doors fitted with anti-burglary strips?
  • Are there proper locks on the outer windows, especially on ground floor?
  • Are the windows fitted with anti-burglary strips?
  • Is an alarm system in place?
  • Is outdoor lighting in place, preferably with motion detectors?
  • Are there any items around the house that facilitate entry by a burglar (by climbing on them)?
  • Are valuables out of view of people passing by?
  • Are jewels and other small valuables stored in a good safe?
  • Have security cameras been fitted and connected?
  • Is the mailbox secure: can anyone steal post (bank cards and passwords)? Can anyone open the door through the mail slot?

So how does MrFix get the expert to do your Burglar-proofing job right 1st time? We reveal two of our secrets…

Secret 1: Proper Preparation

It starts with MrFix screening experts and hand-picking those who know which jobs they do best and who do not blame others when it goes wrong.

When you submit your job you will find that the MrFix app and the form above ask only info that is relevant to Burglar-proofing jobs. So your request is crystal clear and we can make sure the expert is the right fit for your job.

And we tailor your job request to your preferences:

  • A free estimate or a quote (see below)
  • Request your Job for free via the MrFix app or MrFix.nl or call us to input your Job for you (€9.95): +31 20 6750333 (Mon-Fri 9:00-13:00h & 14:00-19:00h, Sat-Sun 13:00-17:00h)
  • You buy the materials or the expert does

For €9.95 the expert guarantees their labour (and the materials, if they supply them) for a minimum of 3 months (recommended).

Quotes versus Estimates

We send you the expert’s estimate for your Burglar-proofing job with their appointment proposal. For jobs over ~€1.000 we recommend that you request a quote (fixed price), not only for maximum certainty but also because for big quote jobs most experts offer a discount on the hourly rate (often 10-20%).

Both quotes and estimates are free, but a quote usually requires a paid inspection visit first.

Secret 2: 5-Star Support and Aftercare

As soon as we find you a good expert you can accept, reschedule or cancel the proposed appointment (all free of charge) in the MrFix app. Then you can ask questions and share info via the Chat function to make sure your contractor brings the right tools and materials. MrFix is there to clear up any misunderstandings.

Even after this thorough preparation a problem could occur. If you’re not 100% satisfied you can tell the expert via Chat what you want them to do about it. Please make reasonable dates & times available for them to return under their guarantee. You can count on our expert (or their liability insurance) to make it right! Not only because they typically depend on MrFix for ~20-40% of their income but because we select experts who assume responsibility for their work.

When you’re ready to submit your Burglar-proofing job please use the MrFix app or the form above. We find you a solid expert anywhere in The Netherlands, from Amsterdam, The Hague, Rotterdam and Utrecht to Enschede and from Maastricht and Eindhoven to Groningen.
