Security bonus 2024 – armored doors, fixtures and more
The 2024 security bonus consists of a tax deduction on the installation of armored doors, railings or security shutters and is part of the package of tax incentives known as “renovation bonuses” regarding the home. As the revenue agency website explains, the interventions that fall within the bonus are also those relating to the installation of an alarm or anti-theft system, in other words the bonus includes all those interventions aimed at adopting measures that prevent the risk of carrying out illicit acts (theft or assault) by third parties.
Initially the safety bonus related only to the year 2023 and was subsequently extended until the end of the year 2024 (31 December). The deduction that can be obtained is equal to 50% on a maximum expense of €96,000. The tax deduction can be obtained over 10 years, but it is also possible to transfer the credit or obtain a discount on the invoice.
Some examples of interventions that fall within the safety bonus:
- Installation of armored or reinforced doors
- Strengthening, replacing or installing gates or fences on buildings
- Installation of metal shutters with locks
- Installation of shatterproof glass
- Installation of anti-intrusion grates on windows or their replacement
The security bonus can be requested by any taxpayer required to pay IRPEF without any income limit. To access the bonus, however, the applicant must maintain the commitment to bear the costs of making their home safe and can be requested by:
- owners and naked owners of the property
- subjects holding a real right on the property: usufruct, use, habitation
- cooperative members
- members of simple companies
