This has many negative consequences for construction companies, who are left with a slipped schedule, high costs for buying new tools and a lot of wasted time reporting cases and restocking vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Costs time, money and energy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Besides the basic frustration of having your cars broken into, having your tools stolen from a construction site causes many other headaches. After all, the tools are necessary for the work, which is why you have to spend time buying new tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition, the cases must be reported to the insurance company and a police report must be filed if the construction company deems it necessary. Ultimately, customers suffer if construction has to be postponed due to lack of tools and time to continue construction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Going beyond the schedule<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Besides the basic frustration of having your cars broken into, having your tools stolen from a construction site causes many other headaches. After all, the tools are necessary for the work, which is why you have to spend time buying new tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition, the cases must be reported to the insurance company and a police report must be filed if the construction company deems it necessary. Ultimately, customers suffer if construction has to be postponed due to lack of tools and time to continue construction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Not worth reporting to insurance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In many cases, it's not even worth it for companies to report the theft to the insurance company, as not enough money is stolen for it to make sense in an insurance claim. A deductible on a construction site can easily be between DKK 50,000 and 100,000, and if only DKK 20,000 or 30,000 is stolen, it doesn't make financial sense to file an insurance claim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is why many cases do not appear in the statistics because they simply never get reported to the police or insurance companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">More options for construction companies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fortunately, there are several ways to minimize the risk of car break-ins. These include installing a GPS tracking device in the tool, using DNA tagging, or using high-quality locks and security devices in the car and signs that the car is equipped with this type of security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you only have the time and energy to follow a simple piece of advice, security experts say that DNA marking is probably the best possible solution to get the tool back to the right owner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many construction companies participate in the campaign \u201c<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>STOP THEFT<\/strong><\/span>\u201d, which focuses on safety, signage and tracking, and more and more construction companies are joining nationwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Kilde: https:\/\/erhvervplus.dk\/artikel\/indbrud-p%C3%A5-midtjyske-byggepladser-og-i-varevogne-stiger-det-kan-du-g%C3%B8re-for-at-sikre-dig-bedre<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Although the number of burglaries in private homes in Denmark has decreased significantly due to corona, there has been a negative development when it comes to the amount of...<\/p>","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":14195,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[25,150,144,5,54,72,175,190,191,36,56,178],"class_list":["post-14188","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nyheder","tag-byggebranchen","tag-byggefirmaer","tag-byggepladser","tag-forsikring","tag-indbrud","tag-politianmeldelse","tag-servicebil","tag-stop-tyven","tag-stop-tyven-pakker","tag-tyveri","tag-vaerktoej","tag-varevogn"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/yourcompany.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14188","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/yourcompany.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/yourcompany.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yourcompany.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yourcompany.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14188"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/yourcompany.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14188\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yourcompany.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/14195"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/yourcompany.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14188"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yourcompany.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14188"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yourcompany.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14188"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
