However, the many benefits of living in a Balwin development would mean very little without security. Resident safety is top priority. Besides the valuable security of communal living, where people know their neighbours, every Balwin lifestyle estate is protected by state-of-the- art, 24/7 security systems that are as good as the best anywhere in the world.   The guardhouse has biometric access control and is staffed by highly trained, 24 hour security personnel. Intelligent CCTV cameras cover each Balwin lifestyle estate which is also surrounded by a perimeter wall with electric fencing. Thus residents can enjoy the walking/running trails, picnic areas and sporting facilities with complete peace of mind.   Chances are that, because of the proven, top-class security, residents enjoy better rates on their vehicle and home insurance.   Reason is, if your car is parked in a security estate with guards at the entrance or in a locked garage, it is less likely to be targeted than one on the street. That means the premium for the protected vehicle will be lower than the one which is not. Obviously, the same principle applies to homes in a security estate. ### Related Articles ##### [![Balwin development as your retirement home.](https://news.balwin.co.za/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/Balwin-October_0000_AdobeStock_486261236.jpg) Property Investment • October 05, 2023 Balwin development as your retirement home. 2 min read](https://news.balwin.co.za/news-events/balwin-development-as-your-retirement-home) ##### [![To rent or not to rent](https://news.balwin.co.za/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/rent-decision-1-600x339-1.jpg) To Rent • July 31, 2019 To rent or not to rent 1 min read](https://news.balwin.co.za/news-events/to-rent-or-not-to-rent) ### About Balwin - [About Balwin Properties](https://balwin.co.za/introducing-balwin) - [The World of Balwin](https://balwin.co.za/balwin-world) - [Careers](https://balwin.co.za/careers-at-balwin) - [Customer Portal](https://my.balwin.co.za) ### Developments - [All Developments](https://balwin.co.za/developments) - [Why Choose Balwin?](https://balwin.co.za/introducing-balwin) - [Awards](https://balwin.co.za/awards) - [Past Developments](https://balwin.co.za/past-developments) ### Legal - [Procurement Terms & Conditions](https://balwin.co.za/terms/LET-PMT-002_Procurement_Terms-and-Conditions_Rev-03.pdf) - [Website Terms & Conditions](https://balwin.co.za/terms/Terms-and-Conditions.pdf) [![Balwin Properties](https://balwin.co.za/img/balwin-logo.png "Balwin Properties")](https://balwin.co.za/) #### Download the Balwin Properties App The Balwin app provides a convenient platform for residents to access content, services, and development-related information directly from your phone.
