Hackney has character from the bustling Ridley Road Market to the quiet terraces of Stoke Newington, but it's not without its challenges.
Whether it's a shattered shop window on Mare Street or a forced entry flat door near London Fields, you need more than a generic service when damage happens.
You need Emergency Board Up, Hackney-based emergency property security, by people who know the borough, the risks, and how to act fast.
We're your 24/7 emergency boarding team, securing homes, flats, shops and businesses across Hackney and North London.
Local. Reliable. Immediate.
Hackney isn't just one place – it's a patchwork of estates, high streets, converted warehouses and conservation zones. From Clapton to Haggerston, the risks differ…
● Late-night break-ins near Kingsland High Street.
● Vandalism and glass damage to Shoreditch storefronts.
● Vacant properties at risk of squatting near Well Street Common.
● High-rise flats with forced entry off Morning Lane.
We've handled them all.
We're not travelling from outside London. We're in the borough, on the roads and often minutes away – meaning you get a 20-minute average response with no excuses.
We provide complete property security solutions, built to work immediately and meet insurance standards.
For Residential Properties
● Emergency door boarding after burglaries in shared buildings or homes.
● Boarding up smashed windows, from single panes to entire bay windows.
● Temporary internal security if door frames or locks are compromised.
● Rapid response across Hackney's estates, Victorian terraces and flats.
For Hackney Businesses
● Securing shattered shop fronts along Dalston Lane and Hackney Central.
● Boarding up cafés, off-licences and takeaways after vandalism or attempted robbery.

We adapt to your space – ground floors, first floors, hard-to-reach spots, or side alley access. Whether it's a townhouse in Stoke Newington or a converted block in Homerton, we can secure it.
Hackney is our home. We're not a call centre operation. We're a hands-on, Hackney-present team trusted by locals, landlords, councils and business owners.
● Local Experts – We've boarded up hundreds of Hackney addresses.
● 20-Minute Arrival – Based in and around Hackney, we're on-site fast.
● Insurance-Compliant – Everything we do meets or exceeds insurer standards.
● Available 24/7/365 – We work nights, weekends, and bank holidays.
● Discreet, No-Fuss Service – Your security, your privacy.
In 2024 alone, Hackney recorded over 35,658 crimes, with theft and violence accounting for more than half of the total. As a result, many properties are left exposed for hours, but not when we're in town.
1. We answer fast – no queues, no delays, no automated menus.
2. You tell us your location, the problem, and we dispatch a team right away.
3. Our team arrives with the materials, drills, screws and safety gear.
4. Depending on the risk, we board up and secure using timber or steel.
5. We offer guidance on next steps, provide a formal report and help with insurance paperwork.
Whether you're a resident, shop owner, landlord, or developer, your property's safety is our priority.
● Police may board temporarily - but only until morning. You'll need professional, long-term boarding fast.
● Hackney Council can intervene if a site is left unsecured; they may take enforcement action or charge for emergency security.
● Insurance providers require immediate action. Delays can lead to refused claims.
● Squatters and trespassers move fast, particularly in vacant commercial or converted flats.
That's why our rapid response and Hackney-specific knowledge make the difference. We don't just arrive quickly – we know what to look out for and how to secure your property properly.
We cover every inch of the borough and surrounding areas…
● Dalston, Hackney Central, Clapton
● London Fields, Homerton, Shoreditch
● Stamford Hill, De Beauvoir, Stoke Newington
● Hackney Wick, Victoria Park, Haggerston
Even if your property's tucked behind an alley or within a block of flats, we'll get there.
