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.
We Know Hackney Boarding Needs – That’s Why We’re Faster
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.

Why Urgency Matters In Hackney
● 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.
