What Is a Security Concerns Claim?

Your home should be a place where you feel safe. When security features fail — and a landlord doesn’t put them right — tenants can be left genuinely worried about break-ins, intruders, and their personal safety. A security concerns claim allows tenants to seek compensation where a landlord fails to maintain the features that keep a rented property secure.

Security issues can take many forms, including broken or faulty door locks, insecure entry doors, damaged window catches, failed communal door entry systems, broken intercoms, missing or non-working security lighting, and unsecured boundaries or gates. In shared buildings, a broken communal entrance can leave every resident exposed. These failings don’t just cause anxiety — they can leave your home and belongings at real risk.

Under UK law, landlords are responsible for keeping a rented property safe, secure, and fit to live in, including maintaining locks and security features that are their responsibility. If you have reported a security concern and your landlord has failed to act within a reasonable time, you may be entitled to claim compensation and have it resolved. Our team helps tenants understand their rights and hold landlords to account.

Can You Make a Security Concerns Claim?

You may be eligible to make a security concerns claim if:

  • You live in a rented property (council, housing association, or private).
  • You reported the security problem to your landlord or letting agent.
  • Your landlord failed to carry out repairs within a reasonable time.
  • The issue left your home insecure or affected your safety and peace of mind.
  • You experienced distress, inconvenience, or financial loss as a result.

If these circumstances apply to you, our team can assess your case and explain your options. Keeping a record of when you reported the problem — along with dated photographs — can strengthen your claim.

Security Concerns Claim FAQs

Is my landlord responsible for the security of my home?
In most cases, yes. Landlords are responsible for keeping a rented property safe and secure, including maintaining locks, entry doors, and communal security features that fall under their responsibility. Where these fail and the landlord doesn’t act within a reasonable time, they are usually liable.
Compensation depends on how serious the issue is, how long it went unresolved, and its impact on your safety and peace of mind. Being left in an insecure home — particularly where it caused significant distress or a break-in occurred — can increase the value of a claim. We’ll give you a realistic idea after assessing your case.
Security failings that leave a home vulnerable — such as a front door that won’t lock or a broken communal entrance — are usually treated as urgent and should be dealt with quickly. Ongoing delays in making a property secure can amount to a breach of the landlord’s duties.
Helpful evidence includes dated photographs of the security problem, copies of the reports or complaints you sent your landlord, details of any incidents such as an attempted or actual break-in, and records of any resulting loss or damage.
