Protecting your Commercial Property after a Disaster

After a flood, fire, or any other natural disaster, a commercial property board up will protect it from further damage. The goal in the wake of a disaster is two-fold:

  • To keep people out to protect their personal safety
  • To keep people out to avoid further damage to the building

Keeping people out of your commercial property after a disaster is of the utmost importance because it is a significant risk to let any unauthorized personnel enter. Depending on the nature of the damage, the building may not be safe to enter without protective equipment. And even then, it’s best left to the pros like firefighters and salvage crews. Reduce your liability by having an emergency business board up done to keep people out. Children, in particular, are less likely to heed written warnings, and should be physically stopped from entering a building through the use of professional-quality window and door board ups.

business board up also secures remaining assets within a commercial property to avoid further loss. Equipment, inventory, technology, and other assets that were undamaged in the disaster will likely remain inside for at least a short time. Protect them from theft, weather, and animals/insects by creating a physical barrier to keep these unwanted things out.
