Since I bought the house I’ve had none stop hassle with supposedly kids damaging my gates to my drive!

Next door neighbour says it a wind tunnel, but there holes in gates, locks been damaged where it looks like someone pushed them open to get into back garden and plant pot behind it biggest you can get still managed to move , the wind was that strong it pushed it out of the way!

Looking at fences - next door brown fences are coated with black I’m
Sure someone has written stuff on it!

AIBU to think neighbours are lying??why not just say it’s kids!

Sorry, but I'm confused by what your asking?

Get a chain and padlock.

I don't understand the OP.

Black stuff might be some kind of anti vandal paint.

The best way to find out is to get a camera, look at wildlife cameras, they are cheaper than a security system.

Can you see this damage being done by wind?

I put pad lock on it - top bit but they pushed fences open? With padlock on?

Could it be their kids? Is that why they won't admit it?

BornInAThunderstorm · 11/02/2019 19:07

Dont understand what you are asking, are you asking if it looks like the fence has been vandalised? If you are concerned you can get cctv cameras relatively cheaply and self install

Housingcraze · 11/02/2019 19:13

Yes is fence vandalised!

I can’t live their at moment, due to previous tradesmen installing bathroom now had massive leak and need house insurance to sort out damage!

Are the cameras, used with out WiFi? I don’t have any?

@Livedandlearned their kids are 3/4 years old!

Just don’t get why they would lie?

I used to have a big wooden gate that size attached between the side of my house and my neighbours.

It was a wind tunnel and the gates acted like massive sails, no matter what I wedged behind them they would open. Locks just caused them to break rather than open, and the huge screws would come out of the side where they were attached to the house

I can't say if it is or isn't vandalism at your house, but the wind can do serious damage, even fairly light winds if they are frequent/constant, as the pressure and damage accumulates.

In the end I removed some panels and replaced them with multiple shorter lengths, making a kind of lattice to let wind through. Solved it.

Trail cameras have a battery and HD card, I have a Victure one but not used it properly yet although reviews are good. No wifi needed.
