How to Keep Roof Top AC Units Safe from Theft
- 1). Install a security cage over each roof top AC unit. Security cages prevent thieves from stealing air conditioners. Carefully place the security cage(s) over each roof top AC unit. Use an electric drill and bolt the cages into the concrete flooring. Security cages can be purchased online or at specialty security stores.
- 2). Hire a professional security company to install security cameras around the vicinity of your roof top air conditioners. The security cameras will help frighten criminals away and capture their identity if they try to steal your roof top AC units.
- 3). Put up "No Trespassing" and "Keep Away" signs near the air conditioners to deter would-be thieves from attempting to steal your roof top AC units. According to the Hubbard Township Ohio Police, posting prominent "No Tresspassing" signs will help keep your property secure and will make it easier for police to identify, challenge and arrest any trespassers.
