General Security Advice
1. If you park your car outside your garage, ensure that you have external beams linked to your alarm system to alert you if you have an intruder on your property.
2. Secure any outbuildings, sheds, veranda’s and garages with some sort of external protection. These areas can be linked to your existing house alarm.
3. Now is a perfect time to trim all excess foliage and clean up your property and verges.
4. Number your property clearly so that emergency services can easily locate your address.
5. Don’t leave items lying around outside in view of the road. There are opportunistic criminals that quickly jump into and out of yards and steal these smaller items.

Vehicle related crimes
When reporting the theft of a motor vehicle or giving a description of a motor vehicle involved in a crime, it is important to get as many details as possible so that the vehicle can be loaded onto the SNIPR camera system as soon as possible (with a CAS No. from SAPS). Vehicle registration number details are the most critical. The UCSI NPC manages the SNIPR cameras in the uMngeni Municipal area and the community are encouraged to affiliate to the UCSI in order to benefit from their services. You can visit the UCSI Facebook page, website at www.ucsi.org.za or email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. for more information on costs and affiliation benefits.
It is also a good idea to have your vehicle info on your phone so that you can have it on hand if it is ever stolen. You can also download the Trackbox App and load your vehicle details onto your TrackBox profile. TrackBox and SNIPR are seamlessly integrated.
