Bad Woerishofen – A stranger in your own four walls, rummaging through your dresser or closet: That’s a terrifying idea for most people.
Homeowners, but also tenants, can protect themselves against burglary. For 2022, the Federal Ministry of Building is again providing funding for conversion measures and the purchase of safety technology, writes the Deutsche Handwerks Zeitung.
Who will receive the grant or loan
Tenants and homeowners can apply for a subsidy of up to 1,600 euros from the Reconstruction Loan Corporation (KfW) (455-E). If the grant is awarded, they do not have to pay the money back. The investment costs must be at least 500 euros per application – and a maximum of 15,000 euros per residential unit.
Alternatively, you can apply for a low-interest loan of up to EUR 50,000 from KfW (159). There are a few requirements for the grants, age is irrelevant.
It is important, for example, that interested parties submit the application before they tackle the burglary protection measures. In addition, a specialist company must carry out the installation work.
Which consulting services can be used by interested parties
Consumers can get advice on burglary protection from their local police and the State Criminal Police Office of the respective federal state. Tips and specific suggestions can be found on the Internet portal k-einbruch.dean initiative of the police and business.
