The Real Cost of Doing Nothing vs. Affordable Wireless Protection
Let’s be honest — we all have bills to pay, and home security might feel like just another expense. If you’re thinking, “I just can’t afford security right now,” you’re not alone. Many UK homeowners and renters feel the same way. But here’s the question that doesn’t get asked enough:
Can you actually afford a break-in?
The Hidden Cost of a Break-In
A burglary doesn’t just mean losing a few valuables. The true cost hits much harder, and in more ways than most people realise.
The Financial Blow
- Average cost of a break-in in the UK: £2,856+ per incident (according to recent UK crime data)
- Stolen items often include laptops, phones, jewellery, and cash — not always easy or even possible to replace.
- Insurance excess: Many people forget that even if you’re insured, you may have to pay a significant excess — sometimes £250 or more — before you get anything back.
Emotional and Mental Toll
- Over 60% of burglary victims report feeling unsafe in their own home afterwards.
- Many struggle with sleep, anxiety, and even panic attacks.
- Kids especially may feel scared in their own bedrooms. That sense of safety takes time (and often counselling) to rebuild.
Repair and Cleanup Costs
- Burglars don’t just take things — they often smash windows, break doors, or ruin locks.
- Emergency repairs can cost hundreds of pounds, and they often aren’t covered by insurance.
So yes, security systems might have a cost — but doing nothing can cost a lot more.
Why People Delay Installing Security (and Why You Don’t Need To)
We get it. We’ve spoken to hundreds of families, and here are the top reasons people delay getting a home security system:
- “It’s too expensive.”
- “We live in a safe area.”
- “We’re just renting, not owning.”
- “I’m not tech-savvy enough.”
Let’s gently break down some truths behind these beliefs.

Common Scenarios – Can You Relate?
◐ Meet Sandra, a mum of two in Manchester:
She kept putting off getting an alarm because “we’ve never had trouble here.” One night, someone broke into the garage and stole her kids’ bikes and garden tools. Now she wishes she acted sooner.
◐ Meet Lydia and Michal, first-time buyers in Woking:
They thought a security system would be too complicated. But with a wireless system from Wireless Security Solutions, they had everything installed in under an hour — and now sleep soundly every night.
