 Theft
 3.11 Smash-and-grab
The Insured should be cautioned against keeping large amounts of attractive goods in display windows or cabinets, particularly where physical protections are poor or the premises are situated in high-risk areas. Consideration should be given to either limiting the sum insured, imposing a First Amount Payable or if necessary, excluding the cover from that area.
3.12 Fixtures and fittings only
Where theft cover is requested in respect of external building fixtures and fittings only, the following endorsement must apply:
"Additional damage to buildings is restated as follows:
Loss of or damage to the buildings including building’s fixtures and fittings whether inside the buildings or attached to the outside of the buildings at the insured premises in the course of theft or any attempt thereat;
PROVIDED THAT:
1. the Company will not be liable to pay more than the amount stated in the Schedule;
2. the Insured shall be responsible for 10% (ten percent) of the claim subject to a minimum amount of R750 (seven hundred and fifty rand) in respect of each and every claim."

Cover is automatically included up to R5 000 (five thousand rand) and increased limits can be purchased. Do not allow sums insured greater than the Theft First Loss limit. If required, please refer to Hollard.

3.14.4 Where an insured requires cover for Malicious Damage only or a limit higher than the Theft First Loss limit, cover may be granted at an additional premium and the policy Schedule may be endorsed as follows:
"It is hereby noted and agreed that cover is included for damage directly occasioned by or through or in consequence of the deliberate or willful or wanton act of any person committed with the intention of causing such damage to the property insured and stated in the Schedule, but only following theft or attempt thereat and limited to R...
