Residential and Commercial Security Assessments

At Brookhaven Police Department, we are committed to providing a safe and secure environment for our residents and businesses. One of the ways we achieve this goal is through the implementation of Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED). CPTED is an approach that focuses on designing and arranging the physical environment in a way that reduces criminal activity and enhances safety. By strategically manipulating factors such as lighting, landscaping, surveillance, and access control, CPTED aims to deter criminals, increase the sense of security, and promote community well-being.

We are proud to offer this valuable service to our community completely free of charge. Our trained CPTED experts conduct thorough assessments of both residential and commercial properties, identifying potential vulnerabilities and recommending practical solutions. We work closely with residents and business owners to implement these recommendations, providing guidance on lighting improvements, landscaping modifications, secure entry systems, and other relevant measures. By utilizing CPTED principles, our community members can enhance the safety and security of their properties, reduce the risk of criminal activity, and create a more secure environment for everyone.

Taking advantage of our free CPTED service can greatly benefit both residents and business owners in our community. By implementing CPTED strategies, residents can enjoy a heightened sense of security, knowing that their homes are less vulnerable to crime. Improved lighting and landscaping can deter potential criminals, while enhanced access control systems can prevent unauthorized entry. For business owners, CPTED can help create a welcoming and secure environment for customers and employees alike. By incorporating measures such as surveillance cameras and well-lit parking areas, businesses can reduce the risk of theft, vandalism, and other criminal activities, fostering a safer and more prosperous community overall.
