• Police report three restaurant break-ins in Aurora on September 24, 2026.
• The incidents occurred between approximately 2:30 and 3 a.m.
• Police say front doors were smashed and cash boxes were targeted.

York Regional Police report that three Aurora restaurants were entered through damaged front doors during early morning break-ins on September 24. The reported damage places the door assembly at the centre of this incident. A locked door relies on the condition of the whole assembly to resist force. As general preventative guidance, check that exterior doors close securely and that locks engage without forcing or lifting the door. Arrange repairs for a loose frame or a door that no longer fits properly. ARX Guard door fortification can add resistance to a suitable door assembly after assessment. Keep escape routes usable when reviewing security measures. Physical resistance can add delay, giving an alarm or someone nearby more time to notice an attempted entry.

How Aurora typically gets hit.

For an Aurora home with older sash windows or decorative entry glass, identify their condition and any previous repairs before discussing film. If there is an attached garage, include its connection to the house. The assessment should follow the actual assemblies rather than assuming that older or newer construction has a particular resistance level. For your Aurora property, ask us to review the front entry, sidelight glass and rear doors. We check the existing assemblies and access before recommending security film or ARX Guard door fortification. Book a free on-site assessment for a written quote.
