As Storm Éowyn approaches with the potential to pose a serious danger to life, it is crucial for everyone to take proactive measures to ensure safety. At Wintech, we’re committed to supporting safe and secure environments for all. Here are some key recommendations to help storm-proof your buildings:

1️. Secure Loose Items: Check balconies and outdoor areas for loose items such as furniture, planters, or decorations. Secure or remove anything that could become a hazard in high winds.

2️. Check Windows and Doors: Ensure all windows and doors are properly closed and locked to prevent damage and keep out strong winds or rain.

3️. Inspect Vulnerable Areas: If possible, inspect any weak or exposed areas of your property to address potential risks before the storm hits.

The Met Office amber weather warning for wind is in place for Northern Ireland, the north of Wales, the north of England and south of Scotland from 6am on Friday until 9pm.

All parts of the UK have been issued with separate yellow weather warnings for wind on Friday as well.

By taking these small but important steps, you can help protect your assets and buildings during this severe weather event.
