Hi everyone, I have a problem with people jumping my gates and taking things (plants and pots so far). Out of my garden. I think it happens at night. Feel quite threatened. I know they are not expensive but it is annoying. 

I thought maybe I should have higher gates installed but then they can jump over the wall from next door. My gates are always locked. I have noticed that several people around have altered the height of their gates.

Does anyone have any suggestions.

Thanks Pete, I never thought of that. I will look into it and the cost.

you could also look in to cctv cameras or maybe just some cctv stickers on the gate it might help as a deterrent or maybe fit some kind of garden trellis to the gate and along the wall

I did think of that but I thought the trellis etc they could break it of. Cameras I don't think will work as I am situated to close to the pavement. But I will look into it. Thank you for your advice.

Are you allowed to heighten your garden wall, I would speak to the President of your committee , (if you are on an Urb), failing that enquire at your local councillors office, and heighten your gate. Hope this stupidity soon stops for you.
